A movie made in the year I was born

It's been a long time since I watched a movie I like so much, everything is so comfortable. Although I was a little excited when I saw Lucy being hugged by George for a kiss, I was a little shy when I saw three men streaking around the pond like three children, and I saw Lucy lied to everyone and tried to hide his Feeling a little dissatisfied. And when Mr. Emerson said to the sobbing Lucy, "You lied to everyone, including yourself, how can you say this is to gain trust", I was so excited!
Every girl is more or less a Lucy. The more she likes it, the more she pretends to not care. It is because of self-esteem or because of strict moral constraints. But in the face of Mr.Emerson's frank remarks, saying that she loves George is a "body and soul" of love, all the careful pretense may collapse.
All the people in the film are lovely, even the insincere Aunt Charlotte will regret the mistakes she has made, and the self-centered Cecil will accept lucy's illegal marriage calmly and kindly. And Mr.Beebe, as a priest, he also bravely stripped naked after a little hesitation. Not to mention Mr. Emerson, cute from start to finish.
The only flaw is that I watched the English version without subtitles, so I didn't understand a few things. In the future, I will also look for more films by James Ivory. Anyway, he has adapted a lot of works by Forster and Henry James.

    I really didn't see that person was Daniel Day-Lewis. After more than 20 years, these people have become actors. Is Maggie Smith's role unintentional or well-intentioned.

    Five years ago today, I marked it as I want to watch it, and I finally finished it today. I like this unexpected coincidence. Poetic, picturesque, and picturesque natural scenery is a feast for the eyes. The emerald green room with the view is the starting point of the budding love. The romantic and vivid descriptions written by British female writers are the turning point of love. This kind of breaking through class barriers and pursuing free love The story is a consistent theme of British classical literature, and the gentleman and arrogant atmosphere of the nobles can only be seen in movies now. After watching this movie, I really feel the urge to travel.
