Have you felt the power of tragedy in "Atonement"?

The success of "Atonement" lies in the extremely decisive interpretation of tragedy, making the tragedy of the entire story full and moving. The more than four-minute shot before the evacuation of Dunkirk, which is still talked about today, is majestic, tragic and sincere. Those campfires, the sound of the harmonica, the shot horses, the drunken soldiers on the merry-go-round, the soldiers singing rough songs, and the roar, they are waiting for hope, but it is unknown how much despair is mixed with the hope. What we know is that three weeks before that, Robbie and Cecilia happily hugged and kissed in their rental house, and received an apology and confession from Briony, learning that five years ago The real perpetrator, and most importantly, Robbie's grievances were finally vented, and he scolded Briony so vividly that people applauded. "How old do you have to be before you can tell right from wrong?" "Do you have to be 18 before you can admit that you lied? No matter how many years I have studied, you, your whole family, still think of me as a human being and still think I can't be trusted. That's why you talk nonsense..." Robbie's words hit Briony's heart and fully expressed the audience's feelings. However, before the audience's applause stopped, they were hit hard by the following truth. The wrinkled old Briony has carried forward her teenage imagination until now, but now she finally reveals the truth, but the truth is too cruel. "I didn't have the courage to see my sister in June 1940... so the circumstances of my confession to them were imaginary and fictitious." Robbie Turner died of sepsis in Brayton on June 1, 1940. , that was the last day of the evacuation." We later learned that Cecilia died in a bomb explosion above Barham Underground Station on October 15 of the same year. Briony told the cruelest truth, that is, Robbie and Cecilia never saw each other again after that meeting in the cafe, and that was the last time. A pair of lovers who love each other have only two intimate contacts in their lives, one is to express love and the other is to say goodbye. This is very regrettable between lovers. Briony's inner guilt was even worse due to the unexpected deaths of these two people. Her heart became more and more eager for redemption. She devoted her whole life to writing the autobiographical "Atonement", and In the novel, the love between Robbie and Cecilia is fulfilled. “In the novel, I want to give Robbie and Cecilia the happiness they missed in reality. This is not weakness or escape, but A belated kindness. I gave them happiness in exchange," Briony said. But in fact, she must have longed in her heart for Robbie to curse her and expose all her hypocrisy and selfishness just like in her fictional plot. She must have imagined those Robbie scolding her in her mind countless times. It's just that those can only be imagined, just like the happiness that Robbie and Cecilia failed to obtain in reality ended in nothing. But who can truly admit that Briony finally returned Robbie and Briony's happiness? What you didn't get means you didn't get it, and what you missed is what you missed. This is something that no amount of repentance and self-torture can make up for. After all, Robbie and Cecilia failed to usher in the happiness they longed for in life. But for Briony, it is so important to put her confession into words. Unlike her sister and Robbie, who died in love and died young, she lived into the seventh century with regretful self-blame. At the age of 18, and now suffering from a terminal illness, those memories of her youth were swirling in her mind more and more vividly. She recorded that story in words. This was a ritual for her, a ritual of self-salvation. In her life In the text, Robbie and Cecilia were finally able to spend their happy lives forever and ever in the house with "white walls and blue painted window lattice" by the sea.
