In fact, it is reasonable for this story to take place in any era. Obviously, I want to highlight the background of the era, but I don’t think so.
Lewis Rachel is a British couple, their son died in World War II, they lost the communication between husband and wife, Lewis is a British army colonel, they lived in the German Stephen's house, the kind Lewis did not Evicted Stephen and his daughter who should have left, and chose to share the house.
The story really lacks rationality. Lewis is too kind. From the choice to share the house at the beginning, to the fact that he later learned that his wife was cheating, he didn't even have an overreaction, which is really incomprehensible. Some people say they feel sorry for Lewis, but I don't think he deserves to be loved. Has he ever cared about his wife? The soldier is hard and busy. He feels sorry for the innocent German child and the German in the house. I really don't understand why he doesn't feel sorry for Rachel who lost her son? Rachel is addicted to the pain of losing her son. Their son died in World War II. She is not a soldier. She is not as kind as Lewis. She is just a mother. She only has a cute little son in her eyes. Of course, she hates Germany. He hates losing his son in this war, but Lewis insists on living with the Germans. Just ask, has he really considered his wife? Losing her son, losing her husband's care, isn't Rachel pitiful? She just needs someone to hug her. The husband doesn't even think that there is anything wrong with him going out for six days and leaving his wife alone with a stranger at home. Does the husband really have a wife other than work in his eyes?
The extramarital affair started with an inexplicable kiss. I have to say, Stephen is so handsome, I don't think any woman can refuse, two people who have lost their loved ones, and two people who need hugs and warmth get together. Ignore nationality, ignore war, just follow my heart. The piano piece "Moonlight" resonated with Rachel and Stephen's daughter. In this house, their short-lived happiness made them forget the war for a while, and they deliberately provoked, with Tiffin inadvertently crossing the shoulders and necks, and deliberately pointing the gramophone at Rachel, which even made me feel a little sweet. I really like Stephen more than Lewis, not only is he handsome, he even envisioned their future, he told her about his own property, he was designing a house, he wanted to be with her, those beautiful visions, Lewis gave Have you ever had a wife?
Needless to say, the ending was pretty bland. Perhaps another meaning is that the countries that have just ended the war are still unable to come together completely?
In fact, it's not really distressing at all, because the last scene is really distressing, at least Stephen still has a daughter, and if Rachel leaves, Lewis is really only himself. The son may be the main support for their marriage. The loss of the son makes the communication between them less and less. In fact, the wife has been waiting for her husband, right? I long to be alone with my husband, and I hope to go out with him, but unfortunately men are big hooves.
Oh, by the way, some people said that Stephen didn't hold back too much in the end? His daughter is already on the train, what can he do? Abandon your daughter? How surprised and sad he was, he needed her, but unfortunately she didn't only have him.
The content of the movie is really monotonous, it feels like it has no real connection with the war, the story is too bland, Stephen is too handsome, Stephen is too handsome, Stephen is too handsome. I want to go with Stephen, I want to go skiing with Stephen, look at his handsome profile face with glasses when he designs sketches, want to listen to his daughter playing the piano happily in that simple little house with him, want to hug him afterwards Talk about what to eat for breakfast tomorrow. Dreams have everything, I love Stephen. happy Valentine's day.
