Joe Wright - James McAvoy - Keira Knightley

Unfortunately, Atonement only won
the Oscar Award for best soundtrack
by our dear and admired Dario Marianelli.



Well, anyway, I don't really worry about the Oscar. I think Atonement is one of the best films I have ever seen. Knowing you, my dear webmisses, I think you enjoyed it too so, in my point of view, what is the most important is to be acknowledged by your work. So here it is:

Bravo to Joe Wright!
Bravo to James McAvoy!
Bravo to Keira Knightley!
Bravo to Saoirse Ronan!
Bravo to Romola Garai!
Bravo to Vanessa Redgrave!
Bravo to Dario Marianelli!
Bravo to Ian McEwan! (an exellent novelist)

All of them did a great, great job and therefore they
deserve not only our admiration but also support!




**************************************************


At least, Marion Cotillard won the Oscar for best actress and we all know she really deserved it!
"La Môme" it's an astonishing film and she is playing wonderfully well.

Torn apart by betrayal.
Separated by war.
Bound by love.

"He moved nearer. "I do. I know it exactly. But why are you crying? Is there something else?"

He thought she was about to broach an impossible obstacle and he meant, of course, someone, but she didn't understand. She didn't know how to answer and she looked at him, quite flummoxed. Why was she crying? How could she begin to tell him when so much emotion, so many emotions, simply engulfed her? He in turn felt that his question was unfair, inappropriate, and he struggled to think of a way of putting it right. They stared at each other in confusion, unable to speak, sensing that something delicately established might slip from them. That they were old friends who had shared a childhood was now a barrier - they were embarrassed before their former selves. Their friendship had become vague and even constrained in recent years, but it was still an old habit, and to break it now in order to become strangers on intimate terms required a clarity of purpose which had temporarily deserted them. For the moment, there seemed no way out in words.

He put his hands on her shoulders, and her bare skin was cool to the touch. As their faces drew closer he was uncertain enough to think she might spring away, or hit him, movie-style, across the cheek with her open hand. Her mouth tasted of lipstick and salt. They drew away for a second, he put his arms around her and they kissed again with greater confidence [...]."

saddest scene

saddest scene




**************************************************




Which scene do you think is the saddest one?
- Farewell {1} -
- I love you, come back {2} -
- The cottage {1} -






I think the saddest scene is the Farewell scene, since it is the last time they see each other, even if Briony tells us another version of their end. When I first read the book, I felt really touched when I found that in fact this was the last time they were together... There isn't much to say but... it really touched me... And I must say, the scene is wonderfully described in the book and made in the film: The bus leaving, Cecilia sadly starring at Robbie who is running to catch her but can't... sublime and extremely sad!

* favorite part *

* favorite part *

As you know, Atonement has four parts: The summer of 1935;
Second world war; At St. Thomas's Hospital and finally, Briony's
extremely touching monologue. Which is your favorite part?






I personally think the whole novel and movie are absolutely brilliant. If I had to give one straight answer I would probably say my favorite par is Briony's monologue (in the film), the most touching and sad part of the movie... when you find yourself drown in such terrible ignorance about Robbie and Cecilia's death... as for the novel, I would probably choose the summer of 1935... well I don't know...
One thing depends on the other, you see. I wouldn't feel so sad watching Briony's monologue if I hadn't create a certain connection with Robbie and Cecilia (which is explored in all the other parts) and, what interest would have the summer of 1935 if you didn't know their tragic end? So, I think the whole movie and novel are absolutely amazing and powerful, all the parts are linked and therefore I love them all. It is impossible for me to choose one, since Briony's atonement is illustrated in all those parts...
