The scene that made Todd pay tribute to the restaurant

In the movie that Directing strategy watched, in the first frame of the restaurant, I wanted to take a bench and say, ah, carol. This is the movie that Todd Haynes pays tribute to. I have always wanted to watch it, but I didn't expect it to be so fateful. Coupled with the familiar Yorkshire accent of the heroine, I have an infinite favorable impression of this movie. In fact, there is nothing particularly touching about the whole movie. There were very few movies in that era that were shot from the perspective of women, so in fact, the men in this film are basically decorations, and this kind of narrative makes me unable to experience this incident. How serious is it. The only thing that touched was the last dialogue,

Fred Jesson: You've been a long way away.

Laura Jesson: Yes.

Fred Jesson: Thank you for coming back to me.

One of the interesting points during the discussion is that when the film was released, the posters in many places in the UK featured the proprietress of the cafe and the actors of the train station staff starring (I can’t remember the name, but a famous British actor).
