      Lytton's letter to Carrington

      My dearest Lytton,

      There is a great deal to say, and I feel very incomplete to write it today. You see, I knew there was nothing really to hope for from you. Well, ever since beginning. All these years, I have known all along that my life with you was limited. Lytton, you are the only person who I ever had an all-Absorbing passion for. I shall never have another. I couldn't, now. I had one of the most self-Abasing loves that a person can have. It's too much of a strain to be quite...

      "I'm my body" art should not be the emperor's new clothes

      There is nothing sadder than losing yourself in love
         . The 18-year-old Wenqing girl fell in love with the 36-year-old gay uncle who was knowledgeable and personable. From then on, she could not extricate herself from a short life, with good scenery and music.
         Litton's personality is not fully expressed, but his sarcasm and occasional tenderness are quite vivid. The end of the film should be Carrington's painting, in which Litton's hand in bed and reading is very delicately...

      It was the same film as "Sense and Sensibility" in 1995, but the two Emma Thompsons are so different. They are no longer the restrained and rational sister. Here, she is willful and stubborn. Falling in love with a cold and intelligent person, as long as he can protect him, he is willing to do anything, and he said that people don't understand, the two people who are in love are better not to live together, otherwise they will either not feel it or hate each other.
      Love is really weird,...

      leave me alone, leave me alone

      Start, a little boring
      in fact, is my expectation impetuous

      grabbed my, those messy life
      but for those who know the true story
      I would marvel on the same planet
      that, sigh, is the story of the creator of the concept only

      to see: the original early There are so many people
      on the island on the other side of the night who are
      really living so real and lost in reality, living

      that way of life
      on the edge of pain and love
      makes...

    "Carrington" expresses the love between men and women that goes against traditional morality. This unconventional eroticism is both incomprehensible and deeply captivating to the audience. Although the film is adapted from Lido Strachey's biography, the focus is not on depicting Strachey's inner world, but mainly on his relationship with Carrington. Many events are from her point of view, This reflects the unique strength of the film....
