The male and female protagonists are very charming, which caused me to get distracted because of beauty. Fiona is graceful and poised, with perfectly red lips and glamorous red lips (forever goddess); Adam is gloomy and frenzied, with sultry eyelashes (pale, sickly teenagers are killing me). Ian likes to poke my tears in the second half of the movie. "Atonement" is about Robbie and Cecilia never seeing each other until they die, "Children's Act" is about Adam dying, and Fiona plays and sings "Salley Gardens" in front of the piano. I don't agree with the simple definition of movies as young and old. Fiona's feelings for Adam are obviously complicated. She projected her love for her unbelievable son on Adam. At the same time, she was also moved by Adam's youthful obsession and fantasies about the future. Adam kissed Fiona before leaving on a rainy night, the same way Fiona's husband kissed her before going to the party, and I think it's a hint. Adam's feelings for Fiona, he obviously admires Fiona, but he doesn't see her as a goddess that can't be reached, but wants to get close to her, want to sing with her, talk about Yeats together, and take a boat to the world together travel. "My lady" Adam has always called Fiona this way, the title is very ambiguous, and at the same time it seems a bit possessive, like a veil covering the altar. I think when Adam stopped believing in God, did he take Fiona as his god? I have no way of knowing whether Adam refused the blood transfusion in the end, whether it was revenge for Fiona for not taking him seriously, whether he felt that he had lost hope of life, or whether he finally wanted to make his own choice. Personally, I think the movie could have Adam's death interspersed with that lullaby, and then Fiona's singing "Salley Gardens" could end. (Maybe this is unfair to Adam) It would be very tragic and beautiful. Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet; She passed the salley gardens with little snow-white feet. She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree; But I, being young and foolish, with her did not agree.
