    Every movie of Cianfrance ran with tears. I really couldn't think of any more beautiful movies this year. The shot is more moving than the tree of life. Uncle Fa and Alicia Vlkander can be nominated for an Oscar if they play casually. Extremely simple stories contain the greatest...

    No matter how high the actor’s face is, no matter how strong the chemical reaction is (in fact, there is no feeling in this film...), it is difficult for people to resonate emotionally if the motive is not explained. There is no tears at all, but there is a kind of hard and sensational embarrassment. , There are still a lot of scenes that are forced to play for the sake of drama conflict. I feel that the original novel may not be so abrupt when reading slowly, but the film look and feel is not...

    The best-selling book adaptation, the boring story, and the Pharaohs, buried these beautiful faces. Originally, jet lag was very sleepy at night, it made me feel...

    The story is dog-blooded (I don’t know if it’s the original one), but photography has given the deserted island a natural slow time and a fateful...

    The seascape and skylight are so beautiful and artistic. The two-and-a-half-hour emotional paving is extremely delicate and inexplicably useful for this slow-paced psychological control. Everyone is affected by PTSD to varying degrees, and everyone's choices are deeply related to their own background and experience. It is heartbreaking to see the price paid for...

    The protagonist’s acting skills are very good, the pictures and music are also beautiful, and there are tears in the plot. It's just why you are surrounded by a group of gray-haired old couples in the cinema. Is this an old movie? ?...

    The love of the two women surrounds the "lighthouse" of the child like an ocean. She illuminates the two women but is doomed to a helpless ending because of being between the oceans. The story is a good one, but the rhythm of the movie is too poor and the details are not brilliant, which is really...

    This year I saw the second vulgar and touching film after "Spy League". The theme of two families and one child can't be more Jack Su, but Fashakanmei's acting skills are really natural to cry, and the future will be absolutely superb. Parents~ If you don’t belong to you, let’s return to the original owner as soon as possible. It’s refreshing for a while, and the happiness is buried... and the face of Fasha can be a grandpa without...

    This is the annual scenic and dog-blood blockbuster, I don't know why Sian France made this. Of course everyone works very hard. As a period drama, it can also take on the feeling that everyone is looking forward to a new life and a new future after World War I, so it can still be watched. The plot and the three main characters are somewhat confusing, but compared to the two women, the role of Fasha is the most condemned. Family happiness and a clear conscience cannot have both,...

    The casting director Maisler is really good. The actor is selected from Germany, the heroine is selected from Sweden, and the supporting actress is selected from Eastern European British. Teaching them (especially MF) to play the role of a generation of Australians devastated by the European War, but teaching them to play the poor German, coincides with the theme of forgiveness (and Maisler is a surname). The lonely role played by MF can also teach the audience to immediately think of Shame and...

The Light Between Oceans quotes

  • [first lines]

    Tom Sherbourne: I'm just looking to get away from things for a little while.

    Mr. Coughlan: [sitting behind his desk] Well, it's no paradise out on that island. Just want to make sure you know what you're in for.

    Tom Sherbourne: All due respect, Mr. Coughlan, it's not likely to be tougher than the Western Front.

    Mr. Coughlan: Oh, you're probably right about that. You pay your own passage to every posting. You're a relief worker so you don't get holidays. I understand you're a single man. No family. So, that's a slight concern. Wouldn't normally send a single man to Janus. It's pretty remote and wife and family can be a great practical help, not just a comfort. But, seeing it's only temporary, you leave for Port Partageuse in two days. From there you'll be shipped off to Janus. Welcome to Commonwealth Lighthouse Service. Proud to have a man who served our country with such distinction amongst our ranks.

  • Isabel Graysmark: I can tell you lots about me. My mom taught me the piano.

    Tom Sherbourne: You still play?

    Isabel Graysmark: Not that well. My brothers used to tease me awfully when I played. I lost both of them - in the War. Just must be so confusing for my parents. I mean, if a wife loses a husband she becomes a widow, but if a parent loses a child there's no special label for it. You're still a mother or father. Even if you no longer have a child. Sometimes I wonder, if I'm still technically a sister now when my brothers are gone.
