Atonement: What Will You Do?
« on: March 20, 2008, 02:22 PM »

I just watched the movie Atonement and my heart wept for the lovers though the man in me won't let the tears drop from my eyes. Imagine the magnitude of the disaster, the tragedy caused by the naivety of a little girl. Her act destroyed the vibrant life, undying love and bright future of her sister plus that of her boyfriend. The poor boy suffered and died over what he knew nothing about. If your sister/brother did such damage to you, will you ever forgive him/her?

I am not sure.
I would try to keep repeating that he is family and I only have one brother.
So, eventually I'm sure I will.

Or I would try my hardest to do it.

I love that movie.

LMAO i watched it mostly for McAvoy and the new actress Saoirse Ronan

She lied about seeing McAvoy's character forcing himself on a minorhe was sent to jail.  Few hours before this happened, Knightley's character and McAvoy's character professed their love for each other.

did the girl have a crush on McAvoy's character or something? Speaking of McAvoy, could anyone be more misplaced in that "Wanted" movie than him

I used to like Knightley but now she's so ghastly looking, I just can't stand her. Ugh. she literally makes me sick

LMAO!! Yeah lately she's been sliding into something else Undecided For the life of me, i don't understand why she was 'hot' in Piratesi thought she should have removed.
She had a li'l crush on McAvoy's character and i think she adored her sister and after witnessing the 'library' love scene, she was confused.  She should have asked her sister what the deal was, but she chose to act on what she thought she knew even though she knew she didn't understand anything Undecided
