"write like an angel"

When I watched this film, I thought that "Atonement" is also about the story of the writer and about moral punishment. Whether it is the criticism of morality, law, and rumors, it is more of a sense of guilt from the heart. Sometimes I wonder how my entire life can be ruined because of a mistake or maybe just a natural desire.
A true story will move oneself and tens of millions of readers, but a really good writer will portray a true story as if it were a true story. I won't say too much about the right or wrong of the protagonist's actions, after all, I can't guarantee that I won't have the same behavior. It is true that we are faced with many choices and may be too obsessed with this change to resist.
Writing is not an easy job, and the biggest irony in the film is that the novel is well-received and the painstaking work that was previously dismissed is published. This is undoubtedly a real problem. The joy of overnight fame can bring a butterfly effect, and can this be a criterion for a person who really works hard?
