Husband and wife are arguing, but support each other. The most beautiful thing for me is the phrase "I know I know", which is better than any love words. As time passed, the two got older and older, and the son got married, and then, as if to let it go, he began to get sick and died. Although the movie didn't overplay the sad atmosphere, it was so catchy that at that moment, I shuddered and my scalp tingled. Seeing the traces left when my son took down the photo hanging on the wall made me cry again. Such traces must be noticed by people with a heart. And this trace is just like the imprint we have left in this world.

Ethel & Ernest quotes

  • Ethel Briggs: I could have married a deep-sea diver.

    Ernest Briggs: Well, why didn't ya?

    Ethel Briggs: Because I didn't love him.

  • [first lines]

    Raymond Briggs: [voice over] There was nothing extraordinary about my Mum and Dad, nothing dramatic, no divorce or anything, but they were my parents and I wanted to remember them by doing a picture book. It's a bit odd really, having a book about my parents up there in the best seller list among all the football heroes and cookbooks. They'd be proud of that, I suppose, or rather probably embarrassed too. I'd imagine they'd say, "It wasn't like that," or, "How can you talk about that?" Well, I have, and this is their story.
