Very artistic film. Beautiful scenery, moving love. Ethan Hawke is really suitable for playing an affectionate man. His clear eyes have not changed in ten years, whether it is youthful youth or middle-aged maturity. It is also one of the few films that depicts the unfair treatment of Japanese Americans by the United States during World War II. When we all regard the United States as a model of democracy, we forget that on the road to justice and equality, there are still ups and downs and setbacks, and countless innocent people will sacrifice happiness and hope.

I read the original book two or three years ago, and a few days ago I found out that it was made into a movie. It has a high degree of restoration but is not as attractive as the original book, especially the cut points of the latter two times are a bit confusing and not clear enough. If the casting of the adult Hue-ede doesn't feel right from the perspective of being faithful to the original, she only seems to frown throughout the film.

The plot is very mediocre, the characters are taken for granted, literary and unconvincing, but there are also bright spots: ethan, the old lawyer, Xing and the white snow scene in the northern country.

Nels Gudmundsson: I think if I did that, Your Honor, I'd be dead.

Young Hatsue Imada: [snuggling] Do you think this is wrong?
Young Ishmael Chambers: Your friends would. Your dad would kill me.
Young Hatsue Imada: My mom is the problem.
Fujiko Imada: [remembering her mother's voice] Stay away from white boys. Marry one of your own kind, whose heart is strong and gentle.
