      Running account records - drafts that have been stored for a long time

      The passionate and upright American female writer, and the shy, reserved Oxford professor and writer became attached to each other because of a letter. The two fell in love at first sight. Like old friends, like lovers, they maintain a distance that seems like nothing, and they communicate with each other and no one pierces them. On the one hand, Jack lived an in-depth teaching career, and on the other hand, he showed himself through his works, and 'sold' himself through speeches,...

      shadow land

      The Chronicles of Narnia, a biographical film by British author Clive Staples Lewis. The film was nominated for an Oscar in 1994. CS Lewis, who once taught at Oxford and Cambridge, was a famous British writer in the 20th century and a giant of British literature. At the age of 58, he married Helen, a divorced American woman who was 17 years younger than him. Helen died of cancer a few years later. In the 1930s, Lewis and his friend Tolkien used to chat in a pub near Oxford University. Years...

      star in life

      The night is getting darker. The movie subtitles rose slowly, and the music echoed in my ears. British piano sounds have an indescribable elegance and sadness. Such as "The King's Speech", such as this "shadowlands" (shadowlands).

      This is a love story. The story is adapted from the emotional recollections of author CS Lewis. Lewis is the author of "The Chronicles of Narnia" and is well-known in the British and Western literary circles. He once fell in love with American female writer...

      we love to know we are not alone

      Some time ago, I watched CSLewis's "Mere Chrstianity" on and off. I was attracted by Lewis' wise logic, smooth writing, and profound thoughts. So I found this movie this week and watched it again. It's a very touching and memorable movie. Such a film can capture the issues of

      life, death and suffering so delicately and vividly, and at the same time make the audience empathize and think about their own lives. The old movie moved me very much. Seeing their very daily conversations, my...

      never tire of watching

      Humans' discussion of pain and the pursuit of the source of pain can be deeply imprinted here. The pain of the future will have the pleasure of the present, the pleasure of the present will have the pain of the past, the color is gray, but it can describe the waves so clearly, coupled with Anthony Hopkins's skillful acting, it can be It is called the perfect fusion of philosophy and art. When I first saw this film, I felt like I met each other too late, and I would strongly support it when I...

      Mr. Huo's acting skills are as good as ever, and his explosiveness is also good. The spiritual significance is far greater than the story itself. To love someone is to share the joy of being with her, and it also requires the courage to bear the pain of losing...

    Evaluation action

    The film is not a biographical or romantic movie in the traditional sense. It uses the protagonist’s emotional experience to think about the relationship between love and pain in a multi-dimensional way. In a deeper sense, it explores and presents the growth of men throughout their lives. The film sets up many binary oppositions, such as Lewis and his brother, Joey, a student who has abandoned school, Joey’s son Doug, Joey and Lewis,...
