Is this the literary style you want?

When literature and art cannot be eaten as food, romantic literature and art films have become less and less popular. The small literary film that I have watched recently is "Thirty-six Stories". The level of storytelling is quite average, but the music and scene setting make people very warm, and it can be regarded as a kind of auditory and visual enjoyment. However, small fresh and small literature and art cannot be favored forever, and people always have to pay attention to some heavy tastes to reconcile them. In other words, when the literary fan Xiaoqing is tired of walking and doesn't know how to change the route, then add some other elements.

Therefore, sci-fi literary and artistic romance films were born. Is this another anti-genre film?

The sci-fi component of the film seems to be soft, and there is no technological component in it, but everyone understands it. Science fiction is just a means, and the ultimate goal is still to express love. Of course, it also has the profound connotation of finding the meaning of life. But it's also a little bit vague to say that it's sci-fi, because the film is based on the assumption that human clones are legal and can be used for inhuman medical purposes. If in reality, as stated in the film, this assumption was established at the very beginning, then such stories might really happen now. A pure love story coupled with the tricks of fate has created a touch of sadness and despair that the audience wants to see.

Judging from the way the story is told, this literary love is similar to many of these types of films. Children, teenagers, and youth tell stories based on age spans. The protagonists have experienced childhood mutual admiration but failed to be together due to external reasons. When they are both mature, they can finally overcome obstacles and reunite happily, but in the end, they cannot fight their fate and have to accept the tragic ending. In terms of the way the story is told, it's really no different from any previous movie, so it can't be regarded as a unique movie.

If I want to say how this movie made me feel, it is definitely not true love, the meaning of life, something that is brought to the screen by movies every day. I only learned from it that human cloning is really an unethical thing to do.

Also, if you don't want to die, why don't you run? It seems that the protagonists of the story have a strong sense of responsibility.

Never Let Me Go quotes

  • Nurse: I think she wants to complete, and you know, when they want to complete, they usually do.

  • Ruth: You hear things, don't you.

    Kathy: What kind of things?

    Ruth: Well, you know... Maybe after the fourth donation, when you've technically 'completed', you're still conscious in a way. And then you find out that there's more donations, plenty of them. Just no more recovery centers, no more carers. Just watching and waiting... till they switch you off... I don't think I fancy that.
