In Reply to: No, Patrick: both Joyce´s story and Huston´s film go growing from... posted by orejones on August 5, 2005 at 10:05:24:
I better may choose words that can adapt to what you think the film ( and the short story was ) in your view of it as for mine we may, maybe, differ a lot on the contend and the way to interpret it.
What I meant was less than there was no psychological continuation in fact there was, but that in the end we live together in the routine of the days passing by, and someday some of us wake up to find an aspect of the compagnion with live with to be a stranger whose passion chock us.
That was the case in " The Dead ".
The moment they reach the hotel is very sad as all of the film, a profund sadness, like the snow who rarely felt there, the sadness of an old man ( Huston ) knowing is times has come to an end. He lived for many years in Irland and he so wonderfully catch the very sprit of his own people and of course of JJ.
The tears in her eyes...Yet not for him.
No, emotions come to strong in me.
Anyway it is such a wonderful film. Bare to none.
Soon, as in every Autumn I will have it as the perfect companion to my own sadness.patrick
