Brief Encounter (final scene)

The eighties? this was the forties

"God bless this ship and all who sail on her...."

Un chef d'oeuvre!...
où l'on perd mult kleenex!...
Je crois que la pièce originale dont s'est inspiré D Lean s'appelle " Still Life" ou " Still Alive".... je ne sais plus...
Merci pour ce post!

Absolutely hypnotic..Just found this DVD alongside a wonderful ladys DVD player..almost thrown away by a neighbour. Celia Johnson?..her amazing eyes..I want to know all now.

What an actress Celia Johnsone was; just look at her eyes. Only truly great actors can act with their eyes like that, (think of Pacino, for example). Also, this film was adapated from a Noel Coward play, a dramatist usually noted for his comedy, rather than tragedy. Such a heartbreaking end, but such a realistic one.

A masterpiece of movie making :- perfect.

Indeed it does.

i wutched diz felm cos it was boring...not cos i wanted to

Of course this film is heartbreaking to watch. However, the most touching aspect of the film is that a group of people can come together and create such a masterpiece of cinema.
