The film is based on Ian McEwan's novel Atonement (2001).
Here the cinema really reflects a mix of metaphysics, romance and Victorian era of Britain. The British are special people. You'll see that now.
The English spell "I" and "God" with a capital letter, but "I" - with a little more than "God".
Pierre Daninos
The British, like no other nation in the world, have the ability to pour new wine into old furs.
Clement Attlee
In England I would rather be a man, or a horse, or a dog, or a woman, in that order. In America, order would be reversed.
Bruce Gould
On the continent of Europe they think life is a game, and in England they think cricket is a game.
George Mike
In England, two types of women prevail: some cannot tell a joke, others cannot understand it.
Jermaine Greer
It's a great movie, with its charisma. If you can say that. With your energy. Nice editing. Marinelli's music. And Wright's directing.Simultaneously and subtly and deeply.Without sharp corners.
Very good movie. The ending is amazing. I recommend it. 🙌
Metaphysics is the battleground of the endless controversies of reason. A strange fate has fallen upon the human mind in one of its modes of knowledge: it is besieged by questions from which it cannot evade, for they are imposed upon it by its own nature; but at the same time it cannot answer them, for they exceed all its possibilities.
Immanuel Kant
