Director Joe White has played the predecessors' bad typing sound effects to a new realm. The rapid typewriter slowly changed from irregularly typing letters to a subjective rhythm, a kind of percussion that fell on the audience's heart, and was matched with tension and urgency. piano and strings, has become a tabbed music played Briony, excited jumping girlhood, restless heart when they grow up, the nurses hurried pace, the train lights flickering ....
cloth Leoni was born with jealousy, made blind inferences, and finally blinded her eyes and conscience, ruined the happiness of Ronnie and Cecilia, and also created the tragedy of her life. The first half of the film focuses on Briony, and I have to mention Briony's role as Saoirse Ronan (Nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the 80th Academy Awards), who portrays Briony's precocity and innocence quite well. In place, because he fell in love with Robbie but misunderstood him, he was even more jealous of his love with his sister, and the toys that he could not get were simply destroyed, which eventually led to the tragedy, and the firm correction in testimony made people especially sad. , as if seeing a person with his back to the cliff without knowing it, but he is withdrawing from that fatal step.
The director and screenwriter took great pains to deal with the structure, changing perspectives and disrupting the time, so what everyone in the film knows is not the overall situation, but only the part that they have seen and subjectively inferred. This is where the contradiction lies and the precursor to the tragedy— -misunderstanding. Therefore, when we as audiences see the whole truth, the regret and grief become more and more profound, and the director's intention is to prevent you from bringing any of the characters in the film, so that you are in the situation Witnessing the growth and development of tragedies outside, and just when you are sad about what you see, you realize that it is only Briony's subjective imagination, and when it is a controllable plot in her novel, it is Briony in reality. What Ni can't do, give them happiness and redeem herself.
In the second half of the film, the subjectivity of the camera is very strong (it was later proved that it was indeed a subjective imagination), Briony seemed to travel between the sets from her cousin's wedding chapel to her sister's apartment. A spiritual journey, which she could never do in reality.
Writing, imagining, and unquenchable sin and remorse has accompanied Briony throughout her life, and she has spent her life making up for the wrongs of her childhood, with her last book (which she calls the first. book) to weave a cruel and beautiful life with regrets but ultimately redemption, and it is also a mourning and atonement for Ronnie and Cecilia.
