Aubrey Walker

Aubrey Walker steps into the world of “Before I Die” (2016) and, honestly, it’s not your run-of-the-mill melodrama. The plot hooks you right away: we’ve got a protagonist who just got the worst news ever—time’s running out, and not in the abstract, dreamy sense. The clock’s literally ticking. So, what does anyone do when faced with a deadline that’s written in stone? They start making a list, naturally. Not a boring grocery list, but a real, raw, chaotic bucket list. But this isn’t some Instagrammable, “live-laugh-love” journey. Nope, it’s messy. There are awkward reunions, old wounds that never quite healed, and a bunch of dreams that got shoved into the junk drawer ages ago. The main character’s trying to stitch together moments that actually mean something, and the movie doesn’t sugarcoat it. There’s heartbreak, obviously. Some scenes punch you right in the gut, others sneak up on you with a bit of dark humor—because, let’s face it, life’s a weird mess even when you’re on borrowed time. And the people around our lead? They’re not just cardboard cutouts. Friends flake out. Family gets weird. Some folks show up when you least expect it, others ghost you at the worst moments. Through all of this, you can feel the desperation and hope tangled together. It’s not about completing the list, really—it’s about clawing back a sense of control when everything else is slipping away. By the end, you’re left thinking about your own list, and maybe—just maybe—calling up that person you’ve been avoiding for years.
