see you late

Meeting, at the station, parting, also at the station.
The whistle sounded, urging, and the moment of nostalgia was no longer given.
Custer, who has left Africa, will he have a chance to meet again in this life? The girlfriend was chattering across the table, and Rita just watched her mouth move and hoped the noise would stop. Who knows, at this moment, what kind of fierce bone-biting struggle is she going through in her heart? The sloping picture is implying emotional dizziness and collapse.
Finally, Rita could no longer endure silently, she ran out, the roaring train roared past, you are really worried, under the wheels, is Rita's body, torn into mud!
Middle-aged men and women with different families fell in love, and the meeting every Thursday was joyful and short-lived. Rita kept berating herself. She loved her family dearly and was a good wife and mother in the eyes of everyone. But on the other hand, she does fall in love with Custer. This dilemma is about the purgatory that many married women have experienced.
When they finally expressed their suppressed feelings, Rita was very happy! What morality, what responsibility, for a moment, she completely abandoned it and immersed herself in the sweet mood of love.
"We are really in love! What's wrong?" But
how could other people's eyes and worldly standards be ignored? After thinking about it, Rita finally accepted Custer's invitation and went back the same way to his apartment. But she was almost discovered by a friend who came back early. Rita, who had escaped in an emergency, was walking on the big title alone. She didn't want to go home, and she didn't know where to go. She was ashamed and annoyed, blamed herself, and wandered aimlessly.
From the beginning to the end of the film, Rita is telling the story, which delicately and truly shows the joy and pain of seeing each other late, so struggling and tangled, but unable to let go. Thinking of the letter from a strange woman written by Zweig, the way of writing from an omniscient perspective depicts the woman's persistent belief in love for the reader, covering it up and sighing.
As we listened to her, it was as if we had experienced that intense, heart-wrenching love with her. Why is true love destined to be missed, destined to be abandoned?
The men and women who traveled in the world meet in a hurry and miss it in a hurry. In the gap between heaven and hell, climbing or falling, what is difficult to maintain is just a group of helplessness, a sigh!
I only wish you and I had said goodbye seriously before the whistle sounded...

Brief Encounter quotes

  • Laura Jesson: [speaking about Dolly to herself] I wish you'd stop talking. I wish you'd stop prying and trying to find things out. I wish you were dead - no I don't mean that. That was silly and unkind. But I wish you'd stop talking.

  • Laura Jesson: [thinking to herself while looking at her husband, Fred] Fred, dear Fred. There's so much that I want to say to you. You're the only one in the world with enough wisdom and gentleness to understand. If only it was somebody else's story and not mine. As it is, you're the only one in the world that I can never tell. Never never. Because even if I waited until we were old, old people and told you then, you'd be bound to look back over the years and be hurt. And my dear, I don't want you to be hurt. You see, we're a happily married couple and let's never forget that. This is my home. You're my husband. And my children are upstairs in bed. I'm a happily married woman - or I was, rather, until a few weeks ago. This is my whole world, and it's enough, or rather, it was until a few weeks ago. But, oh, Fred, I've been so foolish. I've fallen in love. I'm an ordinary woman. I didn't think such violent things could happen to ordinary people.
