How many dramas in the UK have such a set of scenes - the hero and heroine stand on the edge of the green plateau cliff, the sea breeze blows, and the artistic conception is full of unspeakable emotions.
Sylvia stood on the edge of the cliff and said: I will become a fish eagle in the next life. Either I am completely free, or. . . At least you'll have a look at me.
Wannop said feebly: Beastliness is everywhere and I live like an ant. Hey, women with a sense of mission are terrible, and this terrible is that she takes on too much.
On the surface, sylvia and wannop are two completely opposite women, one is sloppy and shameless, the other is striving for freedom and pure love, but sylvania is more daring to love and hate than wannop. She saved her husband's sincerity and true love, but this woman's love was so stupid that she expected to win the man's heart by playing hard-to-play tricks.
sylvia repeats many times: christopher is cruel.
Christopher once said a word when others persuaded him to divorce: only a coward would let his wife suffer this kind of insult. In episode 2, when he talked with wannop about "duty", I completely realized why Sylvia was completely cold. The protection he gave was not love, then it was nothing, ridiculous duty!
Wannop will also ask: why didn't you kiss me then? Sylvia dare not be so direct.
Episode 3:
I really like that the director edited the acquaintance of christopher and sylvia into pieces at the beginning of each episode.
There is her in the memory, and it is someone else who has a clear face.
It's good that christopher has amnesia, so that he can finally get rid of everything in the past and follow his heart. At this time, whether he chooses sylvia or wannop, I understand and support it. But once he goes back to the former christopher, the choice of wannop becomes unforgivable, because it is the child who is reborn, and the child's heart transcends everything.
Christopher came back from the battlefield, and before going to bed, he and Sylvia took the trouble to make the war cruel, god, that's not what Sylvia wanted, that's Christopher standing on the edge of the cliff. Well, let him hang out with the equally politically ambitious wannop.
Sylvia has always respected, valued, loved, and valued christopher. She admitted that she was his stain, and she praised: christopher is the last decent man in England. She is defending him more than he defended her.
In fact, what is the significance of more social background? What's the point of having different personalities and aspirations? All love inside and outside marriage is nothing but red roses and white roses.
Britain has "Pride and Prejudice"-style romances, as well as "red roses and white roses"-style sad pasts. It has nothing to do with World War I or World War II. Maybe it's like the novel "One Sentence Worth Ten Thousand Sentences" that I read these days. The male protagonist Maybe as long as they can talk, sylvia and christopher can't talk, christopher and wannop will say it and smile. . .
Say something for wannop: You have not yet assured love, you have been insulted for this love.
In fact, if I were a man, with such a wife by my side, I probably wouldn't be able to stand it. . . o(╯□╰)o
Episode 4:
Kind of indifferent to this episode. After the air raid, did Christopher change from the main war faction to the peace faction, who cares! Sylvia followed to the battlefield, but her arrogant posture was not suitable for her husband. She was indeed a shower-bath, but only Christopher's shower-bath. In fact, from the first episode, various characters in the play have various complaints, which gave me a headache, saying it was a damn war, but in fact, it's a damned relationship!
He came running in a hurry, thinking it was wannop. . . . Fake!
There is a scene around 32'24'' - Sylvia is sitting on a soft chair, the mirror on the wall next to her just reflects her dignified sitting posture, two sylvias appear in the same picture, very beautiful, like a classical oil painting. (The director also likes to use mirrors to represent characters. Christopher's mirror appears twice, and Sylvia's broken mirror is also once.) One
-sided love and understanding is very scary things like how much sylvia knew about christopher, just how much sylvia loved christopher, so she was tragic.
37'16'' has a longer setting: sylvia turns her back to the camera and faces christopher, christopher doesn't care about her appearance and her heart that hates iron and steel. In the background music, I really want to say: poor gentlemen and poor lady!
War needs men, and men need women. ——Christopher went back to the post hotel to see soldiers and prostitutes dancing together.
42'30''christopher fell asleep, don't blame him, but here I am relieved for sylvia, didn't christopher say he couldn't sleep anywhere? However, here in Sylvia, even though the air raids outside kept on, he still fell asleep with peace of mind. Someone asked, does christopher love sylvia? There is such a sad little love in my heart, maybe I am in the play, I would rather believe it. Also, sylvia called the front desk twice to ask for rum for christopher, her anxious look while waiting for the call made me relieved for christopher, no matter how absurd this marriage is, if it's out of your heart and not your responsibility I don't want this marriage, but with such a woman who loves you so much, everything can be evened out!
Watching sylvia finally spread it all out in front of christopher, I like sylvia like this.
Seeing that christopher finally broke out, swept away my melancholy careful liver! ! So cool! ! ! This is what a man is good for! ! ! This is how good the husband is! ! !
Episode 5:
I expected such an ending, don't be sad, don't be hysterical. Who said that letting go is also a kind of love. Sylvia yearns for the end of the war, but is full of fear. Christopher returns safely and the marriage will end.
It's time for happiness for an exhausted christopher tormented by war and marriage! so, this ending is not bad.
