Gentleman of restraint

The Remains of the Day

The Remains of the Day

The elderly father, despite his age, still regards being a servant as his most important career. He is proud of his son.

Even when his father died, he continued to serve at the table.

Forbearance of love, the housekeeper's admirer Stevens, made several offers, but was rejected by him. There are many waves in his heart, but he bears in mind the iron law that servants must not fall in love. He was in pain, but he still refused to break the rules.

He is a representative of that old era, a gentleman of the old school. He is polite and conservative, but he is never willing to be flexible.

When the old and new eras change, between the two world wars, and in the tide of the times, how should individuals rise and fall?

    At that time, the light was shining, leaving traces in the past. British manor before and after World War I. It was long and lingering, and I finally devoured 2013.2.7, and I will watch it again when there are subtitles! Although I understand the plot, I still don't understand the specific dialogue! Cherish the love of your youth!

    how to be a good butler? the colder, the better. In fact, I feel that the emotional scenes of the two have no pavement and cannot be regarded as the focus of the whole film. The historical background and the interpretation of the word "loyal" are worthy of analysis. There is also the decline of old-fashioned British beliefs and ideas. Indifferent and restrained, like a Capricorn man? indeed. Although I was panicked, it was not a boring film.

The Remains of the Day quotes

  • Lord Darlington: Stevens, I realize this is a somewhat irregular thing to ask you to do.

    Stevens: I should very glad to be of any assistance, my Lord.

    Lord Darlington: Sorry to bring up a thing like this; but, I just can't see how on earth to make it go away. You are familiar, I take it, with the facts of life?

    Stevens: My Lord?

    Lord Darlington: The facts of life, Stevens. Birds. Bees. You are familiar, aren't you?

    Stevens: I'm afraid I don't quite follow you, sir.

    Lord Darlington: Well, let me put my cards on the table, Stevens. I'm so frightfully busy with this conference. Of course, you're very busy too! But, someone has to tell him. In a way, it would be easier for you. Less awkward. I - I find the task rather daunting, I'm afraid. In might not get around to it before Reginalds wedding day. Of course, this goes far beyond the call of duty, Stevens.

    Stevens: I - I shall do my best, my Lord.

    Lord Darlington: I'd be grateful if you even tried, Stevens. It'd be an awful lot off my mind. Look here, there's no need to make a song and dance of it. Just convey the basic facts and be done with it.

  • Stevens: I'd be lost without her - - A first rate housekeeper is essential in a house like this where great affairs are decided, between these walls.
