British film. 1945. Directed by David Lean. The story of a fleeting love affair between a married doctor (Trevor Howard, 1913-1988) and a married woman (Celia Johnson, 1908-1982) is heartfelt, with the woman's monologue narrating. The film is based on Noel Coward's one-act play Still Life, set only in a train station waiting room. A man and a woman who meet by chance in a train station waiting room fall deeply in love as they meet, but they part ways without crossing the line due to their responsibilities to their families and their good sense. The cinematography by Robert Krasker (1913-1981), which emphasizes the contrast between light and dark, and the background music using Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2 add excitement to this British story of adult love. This is a masterpiece rich in emotion, making full use of cinematic effects, including a clever plot that begins with a flashback immediately after the climax. Winner of the Special Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival. [Takaharu Miyamoto] [References] | |Source: Shogakukan Encyclopedia Nipponica About Encyclopedia Nipponica Information | Legend |
