The war tore us apart

Like "Atonement", because it is Keira Knightley, even if the movie involves war, I still watch it.


I don't know the poet in the film, but he may be too literary and cannot escape from the sweetness of the past. The fulfillment of love requires the obedience of two people. Therefore, even if I do not like this misty and corrupt poet, I have to admit that it is impossible to complete this relationship if he is only unfaithful.

When I saw that the soldier who returned was no longer handsome and straight, I couldn’t help feeling sore. The war had ruined everything about us. His brain was stuffed with too many cruel and bloody pictures, and they erased his vision of his wife. Trust, he almost forgot that he was still in love, and he didn't even touch the child. He thought it was born to his wife and poet.

Maybe I didn't understand the entanglement between them. I thought Vera was staying for her soldier husband, and I thought the poet was always a bastard. I thought Dabing had misunderstood his wife, the child was his, and Vera loved him.




It seems that no matter what time we are, reunion and mutual harmony are the end of our life.


Did anyone see the scene where the arm was dropped? This scene is scarier than any horror movie.

    It feels like a combination of midnight Barcelona and the plot of atonement. One criterion for judging whether the friendship between women is true is that even if a friend accidentally betrays himself and does something wrong, I can still forgive the poet for being unrealistic and selfish in my heart. No matter how romantic he is, he is not a candidate for a husband. The poet is only intoxicated by fantasy, regardless of poverty, so the woman who marries him has only sorrow.

    The delicate friendship of the two women is more than anything else, and Dylon finds it annoying and disliked, but his verses are moving. Knightley next to Miller is ugly~~~ In a story that should be very dramatic, the tension is not shown.
