If you don't die, you will never be born.

This is a heart-wrenching film.
After watching it, I felt a little hazy, and I really wanted to say something tacky - in fact, they can escape completely.
But going down the film we suddenly felt that if they escaped then it wouldn't be a beautiful story.
Fortunately, this film is attributed to the sci-fi genre, otherwise it will breed more misanthropy and despair in me.

I've always considered all things equal, even though I'm not a vegetarian. However, I have always felt that everything in the world has its own meaning and has the same right to exist as human beings. But I know that not everyone thinks that way. I don't know where human beings come from to feel that they are always much higher than other creatures and so on.
In fact, God is fair because he is unfair to all things in the world.

It's an intermittent but tacit love story.
Tommy roared twice, but each time Cathy was by his side, albeit with very different identities.
That roar is the deepest despair in my heart and a catharsis of the so-called fate. Yet we are always powerless. In the face of the life and destiny arranged early in the morning, we are all overwhelmed.
There are always many ups and downs and difficulties in the world, just like what cathy said when she left the farmhouse - "If I had known that I would leave, I think I would cherish it more, and would not let so many undercurrents divide us."
We never know what kind of variables there will be in the future. Although we are not donors, there are still unpredictable variables and unexpected hidden surges.
The so-called delay is just wishful thinking, never have too much hope for the outside world, otherwise you will be like Tommy's heart-piercing despair, but still can only lie calmly on the operating table and be "slaughtered" by others.
Have a good time with your loved one, don't miss it, don't hesitate. That's what "delay" itself means. At least that's "at all".
I was very impressed by the picture of the movie and the green of the blockbuster, and that song:

"Never,never let me go..."
Don't let me go.

ps: Most of the movies I watched recently did not have a happy ending, but each contained melancholy, depression, sentimentality, incomplete regret and even dark horror. After watching it, it will make me depressed for a long time, but I still choose to continue. I believe this is another kind of beauty.
pps: The Japanese-British writer is the author of the original book, and the Japanese always give me a sense of surprise. Fragile beauty? not completely.
ppps: I know that my topic has nothing to do with the content of my writing, and the content of my writing has little to do with the movie.

    Science fiction love art? your sister! It's just a bit of a pain in the ass, maybe a 5 minute short would be great, the movie is too long.

    Who made such a sad movie... When I watched it, I felt the breath of Murakami's novel. It turned out that the original author Ishiguro Kazuo was a Japanese writer.

Never Let Me Go quotes

  • Ruth: You hear things, don't you.

    Kathy: What kind of things?

    Ruth: Well, you know... Maybe after the fourth donation, when you've technically 'completed', you're still conscious in a way. And then you find out that there's more donations, plenty of them. Just no more recovery centers, no more carers. Just watching and waiting... till they switch you off... I don't think I fancy that.

  • Tommy: I don't suppose you both heard that Hailsham was closed? The only schools left now, you hear they're like battery farms... I'm sure that's an exaggeration, though.
