Do you feel the tragic power of atonement?

The success of Atonement lies in the extreme identification of tragedy and the full and touching tragic color of the whole story. Speaking for more than four minutes, the scene before Dunkirk's retreat was magnificent, sad and sincere. Those campfires, the sound of harmonica, the shot horses, the soldiers on the merry-go-round, the soldiers singing rough songs and the whistle, they waited for hope, but I don't know how much despair was mixed with hope. All we know is that three weeks before that, Robbie and Cecilia embraced and kissed happily in their rental house, and they got Brioni's apology and confession. They learned that the real abuser was five years ago, and most importantly, Robbie's resentment finally came out. He gave Brioni a good scolding, which made people applaud. "How old do you have to be to tell right from wrong?" "You have to let 18 admit that you lied? No matter how many years I've studied, you, your whole family, still regard me as a present person, and still think I'm not credible, so you just make irresponsible remarks ... "Robbie's words hit the nail on the head in Brioni's heart and completely spoke out the voice of the audience. However, the applause of the audience was severely hit by the following truth before it stopped. Brioni, a wrinkled old man, has been carrying forward his childhood imagination until now, and now he has finally uncovered the truth, but it is cruel. "I didn't have the courage to meet my sister in June 1940 ... so the plot I confessed to them was fictional, fictional", "Robbie Turner died of septicemia in Bretton Woods in June 1940, which was the last day of the Great Retreat", and then we also knew that Cecilia died in June 10 of the same year. Brioni told the cruelest truth, that is, Robbie and Cecilia never met again after meeting in that cafe, and that was the last time. A pair of lovers who love each other deeply have only two intimate contacts in their lives, one is confession and the other is farewell. It is a great pity between lovers. Because of the accidental deaths of these two people, Brioni's inner guilt is nowhere to be found. She is more and more eager to be redeemed. She devoted her life to writing the autobiographical novel Atonement, in which the love between Robbie and Cecilia was perfected. "In the novel, I want to give Robbie and Cecilia back the happiness they missed in reality. This is not weakness, nor escape, but a belated goodwill. I gave them happiness, "Brioni said. But in fact, she must be longing for something like her fictional plot. Robbie can scold her and expose all her hypocrisy and selfishness. She must have imagined in her mind those words that Robbie scolded her countless times, but it can only be imagined, just like the happiness that Robbie and Cecilia failed to get in reality. But who can really admit that Brioni finally gave Robbie and Brioni happiness? No matter how much remorse and self-abuse can make up for it, Robbie and Cecilia failed to satisfy the happiness they longed for after all. But for Brioni, it is so important to resort to words to express her feelings. Unlike the death and premature death of her sister and Robbie, she lived to seventy years old and blamed herself with regrets that broke her heart and intestines. Now she is terminally ill, but the memory of her childhood is becoming clearer and clearer in her mind. She recorded the story in words, which was a ceremony for her, a ceremony of self-redemption. In her words, Robbie and Robbie,
