A British version of the story of Qian Zhongshu and Yang Jiang. But John Bayley and Iris Murdoch are famous for their wives, not their husbands.
The movie was filmed by the BBC. The protagonist is Iris after suffering from Alzheimer's disease. The life of Rish and John when they were young is constantly inserted in the middle. The film is probably meant to express that suffering from Alzheimer’s is the greatest misfortune in the life of intellectuals like Iris-----When she was young,...

After watching this faint British movie calmly, my heart is no longer peaceful.
Human aging is really the most terrifying killer in the world, it kills all good memories. I think of grandma and grandfather, and also think of us. I don't know who will be selected by this terrible disease when we are old. Although it is not painful or itchy, it is slowly eating away at your memory and soul. The one who is awake is even more unfortunate. From then on, a person will fall into the abyss of...

Sometimes, the simplicity of the material makes us laugh, sometimes, the kind faces of others make us feel funny; other...

If love disappears, life will also pass (ZT)
In the boundless river water, two bloated figures floating eagerly searched for each other's figure. The woman shouted: "I want you! John Bayley!", the man immediately replied: "My dear! I want too. You!"
This is the opening remark of the movie describing a 40-year-old love story.
After watching this film, many people may think that this is a story about how to accompany people with Alzheimer’s through the last journey of life, but it is not the case. This film mainly...

The light at the end of the long road
I chose this movie because of my preference for Judy Dench, but the movie itself has moved me far more than Judy’s proficient acting skills. This is a movie about the elderly and also an intellectual movie. Since I was born in a teacher’s family, I sympathize with the character, life, and style of the characters inside. Iris, played by Judy in his twilight years, continues the style of the strong women in the previous films, but more delicately portrays the wisdom and heaviness brought about by...

Iris Murdoch: There is only one freedom of any importance, freedom of the mind.

Iris Murdoch: I... wrote?
John Bayley: Yes, my darling, clever cat! You wrote books.

Iris Murdoch: I... wrote...
John Bayley: Such things you wrote. Special things. Secret things.
