The painted veil

The Music is beautiful, just like the movie, smooth and quiet. A pervasive kind of quiet.
Love the movie, mostly, love the music.
Time is flying though I do not want to say this. Life is changing everyday; it changes you, me and anyone else.
We are aware of it, afraid of it, while we just couldn’t stop it from changing. We are so tiny in front of life.
Time and time again we ask our parents, our friends, our lovers to let us go. Then
what? When they finally let us go we feel scared, disappointed, and tear shows.
I am not going to talk about the tears or the love or the life, anything else. I just want to say something about the movie.

He is an attractive man, at least to me, middle-age, and provide a sense of security.
She is a charming woman, hoping for freedom. Her life is scheduled by her family and for her entire life she wanted to run away from her family.
He fell in love with her at the first sight and she said yes to his proposal though she never loved him because she considered him to be the only path she could get away from her family.
They go to china after their wedding to support the revolution there (he is a bacteriologist). It says that scientists are the most boring group, she thought that he never understood her, she is so youthful and beautiful, she thought she was wasting her time together with him and she could deserve a better life. So it is nothing out of ordinary that she finally had an extra-marital affair. The story goes and she encounter with a married 'experienced man', he attract her attention and then they get together, of cause, secretively.
Truth will come to light sooner or later. They got caught by him in one of the embarrassing trysts.
I know he still loved her, so much that he could hardly survive through this. But finally he did, and handled the matter in a painful way. He knew that the paramour would not leave his wife for her, but she didn’t know that. And finally when she did she had to come to a harder-hit area of malaria. She knew that he was punishing her. At first she felt absolutely disappointed about her life, but as the story goes she saw the greatness of her husband and gradually fell in love with him. The night, after being callously treated, she asked, do you really despise me? His answer was, no, I despise myself. (Why) For allowing myself to love you once. Heart-breaking answer, I though, the words he didn’t told is that I really despise myself for loving you even now. Months went by in the harder-hit area and they got to know each other better and later, the get together once more.
The handle details of the movie is the most laudable part, it can touch you so deeply and lastingly.
