Starring Emilia Clarke and Sam Claflin, this 2016 romantic drama film, based on Jojo Moyes' novel, tells the story of a young woman hired to care for a wealthy, paralyzed man who has lost his will to live. What is this emotional movie called?

The emotional 2016 romantic drama film described, starring Emilia Clarke and Sam Claflin, is called Me Before You (Review). This heartwarming yet heartbreaking movie tells the story of Louisa "Lou" Clark, a young woman with a quirky sense of style who is hired to provide companionship and care for Will Traynor, a wealthy young man left quadriplegic after a tragic accident. Lou's cheerful and optimistic nature is put to the test as she attempts to lift Will's spirits, who has become cynical and has lost his will to live. Their evolving relationship forms the core of this poignant tale.

The film is an adaptation of the bestselling 2012 novel of the same name by British author Jojo Moyes, who also penned the screenplay for the movie. Moyes's inspiration for the novel stemmed from personal experiences with relatives requiring 24-hour care, and a news story about a young quadriplegic man who sought assisted suicide. The movie, directed by Thea Sharrock in her feature film debut, received mixed reviews but was a box office success, grossing over $208 million worldwide.

Emilia Clarke, widely recognized for her role as Daenerys Targaryen in "Game of Thrones (Review)," took on the vastly different character of the bright and somewhat naive Lou, a role she was reportedly very keen to audition for. Sam Claflin, known for his work in "The Hunger Games" series, found playing Will Traynor to be one of his most physically challenging roles, as it required him to convey a wide range of emotions with very limited physical movement. The film explores profound themes of love, loss, and the right to choose, leaving a lasting impact on its audience.
