With a strong British retro style and endless idyllic scenery, a pair of young people who are attracted to each other are united because of pure love, but due to the conservative atmosphere and lack of sex education in the background of the times, they miss it all their lives. The film uses a cross-narrative approach to simultaneously tell about the wedding night of the hero and heroine, as well as the growing up, encounters and acquaintances. The slightly dull rhythm and script setting make the film's plot unattractive, but it does not detract from the strong, innocent yet painful relationship between the two. The final parting ways were due to tension, misunderstanding, and ignorance of sexuality, but their contradictions stemmed from the class gap. The huge difference in ideology and different growth experiences created their mental asymmetry and inability to integrate. Some regret to miss it is to miss it. The plot of the last fifteen minutes of the film is somewhat like "La La Land". If we meet again, how will I congratulate you? With tears, with silence. Saoirse Ronan once again gave impressive acting skills, full of drama, showing the heroine's entanglement, love, pain, caution and struggle vividly. If you give the film four stars, Ronan will have one.
