the。last Leaf

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. After reading The Last Leaf, I was deeply moved.I suddenly thought of the movie- Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, so I chosed this topic. The novel tells us:Suffering from pneumonia, Johnsy chose the Ivy leaves out of window as her own spiritual support, however, at the same time, she was disappointed because she learned that the Ivy leaves was falling and would some day die out, without any leaf hanging on the tree. She thought that if the last one fell, she would also go with the leaf. Behrman, an old painter who also suffered from pneumonia, lived in the neighborhood. One day he happened to know of Johnsy’s situation, and the doctor said that there was 20% chance to survive if she had belief to live. So Behrman had made up his mind to help her keep enthusiasm with her own life. Finally, he come up with a really good idea. Only the leaves fall on that night, he head wind and heavy rain to draw the last piece of the precious leaves.…… Finally Mr. Behrman died of pneumonia. And he left his W ork—The Last Leaf.It was originally not a leaf, but also not a painting. it can be far beyond the leaves and the meaning of art. It symbolizes the courage and hope. Throughout the novel, the author describes Behrman not many and he use the side of contrast. But I can still imagine that the special night,he dragged his paint to show his exceptional artistic talent to help Johnsy. At the last minute in his life, he devoted his life he had to help somebody he didn’t know. I think that although The Last Leaf was just a short story, but it likes a mirror which shows the Behrman’s kind-hearted soul, and reflect the great light of devoting his life to help others.He has a spotless mind.
