thank you for coming back

Black and white films give people a lot of room for imagination, and the detailed long shots are suffocating. Extramarital affairs, old-fashioned topics~ I used to despise them very much when I was very young, but in my current state of mind, it is a very normal thing.

How can a person love only one person in a lifetime? I don't think it's realistic. Marriage is the responsibility we choose. Some people stay and take it. Some people give up.
Our generation is so accustomed to escaping responsibility. No wonder the recent divorce rate is so high.
We are desperate to pursue, pursue... forget what we have and what we have lost, and are never satisfied. Our generation is kind of sadly pursuing it, and it goes on like this.

Suddenly I remembered a sentence in Dolphin Bay Lovers. Sometimes, stopping to look at the people around you is actually the most worthy of your treasure. They don't ask what happened, they just love you as always and say, "Thank you for coming back!"

    This film is really good, very literary, and only David Lean can make this taste and has a strong control over the performance.

    David Lean is good at making epic movies, but he didn't expect to be very good at making such love sketches. The audio-visual language is excellent, the use of black and white light and shadow is extremely skilled, and the control of the story of derailment is also very delicate and smooth. Even if the protagonist struggles with a large number of streams of consciousness, it makes people addicted to this story that goes against traditional values. Finally, thank you for coming back to me
