Atonement the movie

May 18, 2008 00:33

I got to watch the Atonement with Kira Knightley and whoever there is, the Oscar nominee movie.
OMFZ!!! I lost track of what was happening as soon as I saw Dunkirk. And the hospital later, with the Sister giving shit to the Chagre Nurses, and with the only French-speaking patient in the ward...  My mind switched to TC just like that, just like it always does. I closed my eyes a little and pictured Laurie somewhere in that ward.. out of the reach of the cameras, lying silently or talking to Reg over the locker...  and Ralph, somewhere in those streets, unseen but present.

I didn't quite enjoy Atonement as it is, but I finally got to see what it all actually looked like (provided that the costumes and the setting are historically accurate). Maybe I ought to watch more war movies, not to gape and try to calm down my pounding heart whenever I see WWII military amd medical uniforms.
I'm getting batty, am I not...
