when i find you i'm not gonna let you go

have you read this?

cause it's soooooo good. i read it some years ago and then picked it up again this year. oddly, i found it in a nail salon that said, "take one or leave one" i took one.
then i saw this:

i didn't even know it had come out until today, so i went and saw it- even though i knew it would depress me. but it was sooooooooo good. really, such a good adaptation! i love it when that happens. i loved the colors in this film, they were all so muted and calm, a little sad too, but sweet and peaceful at the same time.
at the beginning of the film, when they were children it was all grays-

then in the middle when they are at the peak of adolescence- such a promising time in life- greens and reds and blues even.

final stages- tans and white and pinks

beautiful film, true to the integrity of the book and really just another example of why he is such a power writer,(author Kazuo Ishiguro) because that movie is EXACTLY how i pictured everything, clearly he does a good job of putting in simple, but clear details.
anyhoooo.....just watch it and tell me what you think.
