after many years

A lot of love seems to happen easily.
Many lovers, it seems, can only be together for a short time.
However, it is not clear what the reason is. The love that seems to be a good match will never be forgotten for a lifetime. Even, can no longer love anyone. Just like Michael.

We all lament the shortness of love. Also complain about the unknowability of love.
How do I know you love me? If you don't tell me, how do I know?
However, you said, I don't know if you are true love or fake. Is it sincere, or just for the occasion.
Well, I admit that you love me. But how do I know, how deep is your love, how long can you love me?
Therefore, we should flaunt our maturity and stop waiting for each other to say, I love you.
Don't expect anything like this anymore.
We know we will be separated eventually.
So, we don't talk about love, and we don't talk about how sad we will be separated in the future.
We just cherish the time we have together now.

The days of separation came to an end, just as Hanna would finally leave Michael
for a long time, and the two did not meet.
But forget, why is it so hard?
Tomorrow Valentine's Day, I received gifts from three people. Rose, chocolate, perfume.
However, I am not happy at all.
After watching The Reader, my heart seems to be aching.
It seems like a short period of time, why can't I forget it? !

Michael, years later, still can't love his wife. Hanna was never mentioned to anyone, as if she had never been there. But she was his secret. Someone he didn't want to think about.
Years later, he began to continue reading to her. From Hommer, who started reading at the age of 15, to A Lady with a Little Dog in sequence.
It is conceivable that when she heard a familiar article in prison, a mature and slightly vicissitudes male voice, how she felt in her heart of waves.
Years later, I still can't forget you.
Although only for a short period of time.
I love you.

    Stephen Dedley's most profound work to date, the deep excavation and multi-angle analysis of human nature is quite chilling, and Kate Winslet's actress is well deserved.

    The picture of reading aloud to you when I was young at that time is too beautiful and touching (sometimes I also imagine reading a book with a loved one, our voices will be knotted in the air and will never be separated again) . The film twists and turns with changing moods until the moment the tape that Ralph Fiennes sent to Kate Winslet who is in prison starts playing and I can't hold back the tears for the entire second half. part.
