THE BUCKET LIST
G | 1 hr 37 mins | Comedy, Drama, Adventure
A long time ago, Carter Chambers’ philosophy
professor suggested that his students compose
a “bucket list,” a collection of all the things they
wanted to do, see and experience in life before
they kicked the bucket. But while Carter was
trying to define his private dreams and plans,
reality intruded. Marriage, children, myriad responsibilities
and, ultimately, a 46-year job as
an auto mechanic turned his concept of a bucket
list into little more than a bittersweet memory
of lost opportunities and a mental exercise
he occasionally thought about to pass the time.
Meanwhile, corporate billionaire Edward Cole
never saw a list without a bottom line. He was
always too busy making money and building an
empire to think about what his deeper needs
might be beyond the next big acquisition or cup
of gourmet coffee. Then life delivered an urgent
and unexpected wake-up call to both of them.
Carter and Edward found themselves sharing
a hospital room with plenty of time to think
about what might happen next--and about how
much of that was in their hands. For all their
apparent differences, they discovered they had
two very important things in common: an unrealized
need to come to terms with who they
were and the choices they’d made, and a pressing
desire to spend the time they had left doing
everything they ever wanted to do. So, against
doctor’s orders and all good sense, these two
virtual strangers check themselves out of the
hospital and hit the road together for the adventure
of a lifetime--from the Taj Mahal to the
Serengeti, the finest restaurants to the seediest
tattoo parlors, the cockpit of vintage race cars
to the open door of a prop plane--with just a
sheet of paper and their passion for life to guide
them. Adding and crossing items off their list
while taking in the grandeur and beauty of the
world, they grapple with the difficult questions
and the even more difficult answers that plague
all of us. And, without even realizing it, become
true friends.
