Cloud Atlas... well... you can look it up on IMDb, without a doubt it'll describe its plot much better than I can.
What I wanted share was my favorite of the characters: Mister Meeps, the Scottish little ole man who aids the quite 'rebellion' in the nursing home; He's not too hard to find: the words he repeats most of the time during the nursing home timeline is "I know! I know!"; Amazingly, he's also among the crew members during the timeline of ship set for America from an area in Africa, please bear with me if I have the destinations all wrong; that's from my understanding and i hope i recalled the timeline well, I'm open to corrections. He's the one with the silvery white hair and puppy eyes. I think they may have been blue.
In the past, I have lived in nursing homes; and i do recall may persons resembling the character like of Mr. Meeps. In fact, I strongly agree that I can relate, because I also have had some type of aphasia of sorts; very like his. Only difference: instead of repeated "I know! I know!"; my version was "I don't know! I don't know!" **smiles** So, while watching the movie solo in the movie theaters I couldn't contain my laughter, because: "I know! I know!"
His character had shined best. the type of aphasia that strikes me during times of frustration, does not come out in a stutter, very similar to one; although, its more like an inability speak for oneself. It's sad, however just as bittersweet, if one does find their thoughts and voice once again.

that's about it.
