"Atonement" is a 123-minute love movie produced and distributed by Universal Pictures. The film was directed by Joe White, starring James McAvoy and Keira Knightley, and was released in the UK on September 7, 2007. The film is adapted from the novel of the same name written by Ian McEwan and tells a story that changed the fate of three young people in an English manor in the 1930s.
first let us walk into the movie, in 1935, in a quiet and laid-back English country farm. The wealthy and prominent Talis family are here to escape the heat that has rarely been experienced in Britain in recent years. On this day, the 13-year-old girl Brioni Talis (played by Saoirse Ronan) was typing and writing a script in the room upstairs of the farm house. She happened to see through the window not far away in the garden, sister Cecilia Taliss (played by Keira Knightley) took off his shirt when Robin Turner (played by James McAvoy), the son of the manor housekeeper and her childhood playmate, stood before her With. Robin had just arrived at the manor from Cambridge. He was shocked and couldn't move a single step. The young and ignorant girl thought Robin was going to behave badly towards her beautiful sister. In the next plot of
, we know that Brioni misunderstood or deliberately misunderstood. She turned her head away from the window because of the shyness of the girl, and didn't see her sister taking off her clothes. Then she jumped into the fountain in her garden and picked up the ears of the vase that Robin had missed and dropped into the pool. Coincidentally, on the same night, Brioni’s cousin Laura Quincy (Juneo Temple) was raped again, and all this made Brioni believe that Robin was the criminal who committed no evil.
In fact, the well-educated Robin Turner has a soft spot for Cecilia, who has a strong character, and Cecilia also values the ambitious young man. At this time, the two are already in a relationship. But cousin Laura did not speak, and Brioni's fatal misunderstanding of Robbie and guilty testimony finally ruined the love between Cecilia and Robbie's childhood sweetheart. The hapless Robin was wronged and imprisoned. Only the heartbroken Cecilia was left alone to endure the pain and guilt of losing her lover. And the vain cousin, Laura, "simply" married the rich man Paul Marshall (Benedict Cambebacher) who raped herself.
Many years later, the cruel World War II attacked and devastated Brioni's life and heart, who had caused her sister's endless pain like this fatal misunderstanding. Self-salvation became her greatest wish in this life. However, the ruthless war eventually engulfed a pair of unmarried lovers one after another. But Brioni spent her life's experience to write this fatal misunderstanding into a sincere novel, and Robin's innocence, to fulfill the lovers in the book. The second thing
has to discuss is whether the owner announced that Leo Ni’s atonement was fulfilled? Who is guilty? I think it was the selfishness of human nature and the huge class gap that caused this tragedy, especially the ruthless trampling of the bottom of society by the upper class. In the flashback scene of the
movie, Brioni once deliberately fell into the water and was rescued by Robin. Robin told her that she put herself in danger, but she smiled happily. From this scene we know that Brioni fell in love with Robin. Brioni herself tended to believe that in the scene in the garden pool, her sister took the initiative to undress, but because of her jealousy of love and hatred and the impulse of youth and ignorance, she deliberately distorted the facts and believed that Robin forced her sister, completely wrong. Blame it on Robin; she privately opened Robin’s letter to her sister. She also wanted to know that Robin didn’t love her sister. As she expected, with the explicit words in her heart, she thought Robin was disgusting and disgusting; in the study When she saw her sister kissing Robin, she thought Robin took the initiative, and Robin seduced her sister.
Why doesn't she doubt her sister? Because she is in a disadvantaged position relative to her sister, who is older and has a strong personality. So when it became clear that Robin loved her sister, she became more and more jealous of her sister, and even twisted that the Robin her sister got was indecent and unbearable. She even forgot that she also loved Robin in her heart. She longed for Robin's love but never got it, which caused the tragedy of the film.
But it is not only Brioni who is guilty of love and hatred, but the rest of the characters are more worthy of atonement. The chief sinner is the polite and rich man Paul Marshall and the man who brought this rich man to the manor and led the wolf into the house. My brother, they all say that things are gathered by kind and people are divided by groups. The rich Paul Marshall is the dude of a rape cousin, Laura, and Brioni's brotherWhere can it be better?
Then the main offenders were Brioni and his family and the upper class of the food factory owner, including the police department. They turned the unprovoked accusation of a little girl into empirical evidence, and the onlookers and law enforcement officers knew that something was strange but did not investigate deeply. In fact, they had already found Robin guilty from the very beginning. Why was Robin? Because of class consolidation, even if Robin also received higher education, he will always shed the blood of the inferior. No one believed him, everyone sent him to prison together. No one except Cecilia stood up to speak for him, no one would believe that he was innocent. Or, Brioni's family doesn't care whether Robin from the lower class is innocent or not. What kind of impact this crime will have on Robin's life, nor does it care about Robin's life or death. Just like Brioni’s sister Cecilia thought at first that it was ridiculous that her brother invited Robin to dinner. I didn't care if Robin hadn't paid back her father's money, nor could he understand why Robin had to pay back the money. The fact of paying back the money can also be seen in Robin's excellent qualities. He did not want to attach to the rich lady Cecilia from a humble background. In front of Cecilia, he may have low self-esteem, but he has self-esteem. It was also the halo on him that attracted the Talis family sisters.
In addition to the police agency that was judged by the judicial system, there were also ambitious politicians who "played" war games at that time. The children at the bottom were killed on the battlefield because of the politicians' ambitions. The first half of the movie is full of gorgeous and gorgeous colors. Regardless of the set design and the costumes worn by the characters, they are all dazzling designs, blending the soundtrack of the ambient sound. The second half of the film switched to plain colors and sluggish shapes, and the soundtrack was in sharp contrast with the first half. There is a long shot in the second half: four and a half minutes of the Dunkirk beach battle scene, lonely soldiers, photos in Robin's arms, the war has rendered Robin's tragic fate even more miserable. The chief culprit in World War II was fascism, and Robin was a British soldier. The shamelessness of the Munich conspiracy and the Anglo-French appeasement policy indulged fascism. The cold-blooded British bourgeoisie and ambitious politicians are evident. Since the war begins, of course the people at the bottom will go first. This is the modern Iraq War. According to statistics, the majority of civilian children went to the front and sacrificed. The old godfather in the movie "The Godfather" is very dissatisfied with his younger son Mike joining the army to work for the United States, reflecting the ruthlessness of the ambitious politicians of the upper class. Therefore, Robin died in the Dunkirk retreat in the United Kingdom, because of the prejudice of the upper echelons and the unfairness of justice. Brioni was also a member of the upper echelons. Each of them should atone for this tragedy.
Finally, Brioni is actually very much like her sister. She admires Robin as much as her sister. She also has the sensitivity and perseverance to feelings. Her sister and Robin adore each other but they have not confessed their love, the same school did not talk to each other, and Brioni's love was buried in her heart and never revealed. My sister broke with her family because of Robin, so Brioni must have given up Cambridge to go to the hospital where her sister had been. In her text, Robin and her sister live happily together, but the sister in the text has only the appearance of her sister, but she has her taciturn. She is fulfilling her sister and Robin, and is also making up for her dream with Robin. , Lovers should be warm in the dusk, but they are full of scary red and large tracts of cold, helpless and sad. Her talent should not lose to her sister. She started writing scripts at the age of thirteen and later became a writer. But she consciously couldn't compare to her sister. Through Brioni's imagination, she went to see her sister in the small apartment and apologized to Robin who was in the apartment. Robin accused him of killing her because of his origin. Because of her fault, she will never be able to compare with her sister. She feels that she has no favor with Robin, only resentment. Even if she gives her life's happiness, she cannot change everything that has happened. Robin and her sister's young lives have passed away, and their love has only a beginning without a happy ending. Brioni lived to old age with guilt, and she also became a writer. At least she lived a rich life, fame and fortune, but she felt eternal regret and guilt. Alas, if I knew today, why bother. But this is the end of the matter, I don't think Brioni has any need to lose her life for this irreparable mistake.
Brioni has spent several years experiencing her sister’s hard work, and countless times look forward to taking that step to beg her sister’s forgiveness, and fulfilling her sister and Robin in her own literary fantasy. If her conscience is not clear, otherwise she will not repent and redeem her sins. But she never plucked up the courage to see her sister, and never had the opportunity to apologize to Robbie in person. Maybe we will see our own shadow in Brioni, our paranoia about personnel. Bi Shumin’s article "Purple Human Figures", the couple’s wedding dayThe house was burned by the enemy in the evening, and the two were burned seriously in the hospital ward to support each other until they died. The human selfishness in us. We make mistakes but don't have the courage to correct it, even the courage to admit it. I also advise everyone, especially those who are in love, to be rational. Really, don't use "love is blind" and "love is selfish" as an excuse. In the end, what hurts is what you love.
