There is a certain suspense in this movie. In the first half, I have been guessing who the boy will be. This suspense has always supported me to see the end. Of course, the suspense was also revealed at the last moment.
Except for the suspense and the scenery of Cambridge of that era, everything is a bit mundane.
Especially this is a movie with no surprises. Every character, every character’s appearance and personality are in the routine, only Sophie and Leo may be an atypical love, but because of the limitation of the angle, these two The characters spend very little time in the same frame. In fact, the entanglement between the two people may be more interesting. They have a common career and have a child. Because of work, the husband is sent to fall in love with another woman, maybe Sophie kills. Is there a layer of jealousy in the other party?
LEO’s perspective is very typical, a young man who was fanatical about socialism at that time, a predator of little girls, a spy, but the actor only showed his passionate side, just like an ordinary student, no Shows his complicated face as a spy. As for the heroine, she does have a movie face, often with subtle expressions. She perfectly restored the appearance of a science girl in that era. But then, every scene and every choice she made was very routine. His mentor, It's also handsome and bookish, and then it's gone. In short, this is a movie with a lot of routines. Although the suspense is enough to support it, there is no room for more aftertaste.
