LORENZO’S OIL REACTION PAPER

Lorenzo's Oil is a constricting film experience. It is, but in the best possible way. It takes
a heartbreaking story and pushes it to its logical conclusion, demonstrating the depths of courage
and imagination that people can summon when necessary. Michaela Odone and Augusto
Odone give daring performances as a married couple who are sometimes too exhausted and
obsessed to be nice to one another. They do, however, share a common goal. They are
determined to save their son's life. When their son was diagnosed with adrenoleukodystrophy
(ALD), a rare nerve disease that only affects young boys and is always fatal, they went through
all those stages. They made the decision to take matters into their own hands. They discovered a
cure for the disease by knocking on doors, haunting research libraries, reading everything,
talking to parents of other sick children, and using intuition.

This shows how much they care about their child's health. They do not want him taken, at
least not yet. The Odones have helped scientists and doctors today by providing relief and hope
to ALD patients, and their findings have shed light on the scientific world of ALD. Though I
found Lorenzo's Oil to be boring at times, there were times when I found myself in tears during
emotional scenes. I understand the parents' struggle to accept the news that their son has an
incurable illness. All the difficulties they encountered, the people they clashed with, and the
sacrifices they made for their son have left a lasting impression on me. You truly will go to any
length for the sake of your loved ones. Similarly, it was an inspirational film that will make you
realize that if you are alive, have dedication, and are eager to achieve your goal, there is always
hope.

This is an excellent film to watch if you are interested in science and discoveries. As a
result, the story of Lorenzo's oil contains a life lesson. For starters, it will teach you to be patient
in all situations and will instill in us the value of family involvement in the patient's health care.
Second, never underestimate what a family is willing to go through to cure or treat a deadly
disease. Third, we should study harder because it will help us achieve our goals, and finally, we
should love unconditionally without expecting anything in return. Finally, all of the actors and
actresses deliver outstanding performances. This is a must-see film that is educational, inspiring,
and will undoubtedly touch your heart.
