Did no one notice the hint the headmistress gave at the beginning?

The unsmooth plot is the flaw of this film. I vaguely feel that the director wants to express something deep, but the illogical main story is so dazzling that people can't look directly at it.
Male lead, have you ever loved the female one from beginning to end?
I'm sorry, I'm a bad-tempered clone with no opinion, so it's your problem that you didn't realize that I was deeply affectionate towards her from start to finish.
Please screenwriter brother, if you can't lay out the clues clearly in advance, don't suddenly come out that the male lead and the second female are just playing on the scene. After many years, you suddenly realize that true love for the first female is such a bridge, okay, not a dog. Bloody Latin soap opera. (I don't even want to talk about stick dramas anymore.)
I don't even want to mention the question of whether the clones can escape. The key is that the director's background is not clearly explained, leaving the audience confused.
Also, didn’t anyone find the correct escape route given by the headmistress at the beginning? All the delays are smoke bombs. Didn’t the headmistress say it at the beginning? I found a few cigarette butts in the school garden. Our famous school Students are determined not to smoke because it is harmful to health. Then if you clone people don't want to donate organs, you can do the opposite. Don't you have the tapes in exchange for tokens, the music is good, and you can exchange cigarettes with the gardener. . . It's better to get yourself a lung cancer slowly, or just find someone with AIDS. The incubation period for AIDS is 10 years at most, which is better than your extended 4 years.
Anyway, the picture and music are also soso, vaguely have a bit of Taiwanese literary accent. Maybe the original is great, but I haven't seen the original. Personally, I think the remake of this movie was unsuccessful, at least it didn't give me the urge to remake the original. The positioning of the whole film is still unclear. Is it a sci-fi romance film? None of these three imaginable points have been stepped on properly, perhaps because like others who felt that they had a chance to escape from the beginning, I was not in the play from the beginning.

Never Let Me Go quotes

  • Kathy: It had never occurred to me that our lives, which had been so closely interwoven, could unravel with such speed. If I'd known, maybe I'd have kept tighter hold of them and not let unseen tides pull us apart.

  • [first lines]

    Kathy: My name is Kathy H. I'm 28 years old. I've been a carer for nine years. And I'm good at my job. My patients always do better than expected, and are hardly ever classified as agitated, even if they're about to make a donation. I'm not trying to boast, but I feel a great sense of pride in what we do. Carers and donors have achieved so much. That said, we aren't machines. In the end it wears you down. I suppose that's why I now spend most of my time not looking forwards, but looking back, to The Cottages and Hailsham, and what happened to us there. Me. Tommy. And Ruth.
