An Affair to Remember(1957)


Cary Grant is my all time favorite actor and his An Affair to Remember is always my favorite movie.

Cast : Cary Grant / Deborah Kerr

The basic story of An Affair To Remember is, when Nickie(Grant) and Terry(Kerr) meet on a ship crossing an ocean, the sparks fly, but pity that both are sailing back to their intended fiancée's in American. They do not expect to find love along the way.

When their ship stops in a port along the way, Nickie invites Terry on board to his grandmother’s villa on the French Riviera. During the visit, they realize that they've fallen in love with each other.

On the last night of the cruise, they make a pact. Six months later, that’s the first of July, they’ll meet at the top of the Empire State Building at 5PM

男女主角在歐洲回美國的郵輪上相遇, 彼此一見傾心。

在航行的途中, 女主角被邀請和男主角一同上岸探望他的祖母, 共度了一段愉快的時光, 加上經過在郵輪上這幾天的相處, 彼此發覺漸漸已經互相愛上了, 無奈現實中各自已有所屬

輪船即將要泊岸, 惟有定下約定, 若在六個內可將各自的感情關係整理好, 就在六個月後的七月一日下午五時在帝國大廈頂樓再見。

In the movie, their meeting on the deck is the scenery I like most, charming couple, excellant acts and wonderful dialog.

The last scenery is the most touching part, the conversation between them always bring tears to my eyes.

Here comes the most beautiful scenery : - 

Kerr  Winter must be cold for those with no warm memories. We’ve already miss this spring.

Grant Yes, and that’s probably my last chance.

Kerr   Mine too.

Grant   It's now or never


Kerr     "Never" is a frighten word. 

 

Kerr    Let me tell you in the morning, hmmm.

Grant   It’s going to be a long night.

Kerr    For me too.

 

Kerr    I didn’t get sleep till 5

Grant  I didn’t sleep at all


Then the ship just passes by the Empire Bldg. so Grant suggests it as the meeting place six months later.

Kerr   Yes, it's perfect ! It's the nearest thing to heaven we have in New York City!


<<  Ending scene 1/2  >>

Grant  How long did you wait? I mean, did you wait long?

Kerr   Ahh, well, yes, well yes, I waited until....

Grant  Midnight. Oh. And then what did you do?

Kerr   Well. Then I got really mad. Well, you can imagine. Standing up there in..

Grant  Yes. In a thunderstorm.

Kerr   In a thunderstorm.-

Here comes the most touching scenery and a wonderful kiss follow after these heart warming dialog. << Ending scene 2/2 >>

Kerr    Darling, don’t look at me like that.

Grant  Why didn't you tell me? If it had to happen to one of us, why did it have to be you?

Kerr    It was no body's fault but my own. I was looking up. It was the nearest thing to heaven. You were there. Oh darling. Don't worry darling. If you can paint, I can walk. Anything can happen. Don't you think?

Grant   Yes darling, yes, yes, yes.-

<< The best parts of the movie >>

2:28

Grant   Isn't it beautiful down there? Huh? I say, isn't it beautiful down there?

Kerr    Yes. But do you want to hear an old joke? What? If it's so beautiful down there why did you....

Grant    Oh, thats an old joke alright.-

3:12-3:45 

Their first kiss on the ship’s stairway. One lengthy shot are used and only their legs are shown. Kerr’s body movement tells it all. Let the wide range of imagination pass to the audience.

4;04

Kerr    You go to think in your room and I'll think in mine. We’ll miss each other.

Grant   Oh, that was very sweet. What you just said.

就.....

記得.......

依時去供股喇 ! ! !

  它們都乖乖地在已畫定的範圍內走動, 只有一隻為了覓食, 踩界而不自知

 忽然有這一幕的電影情節飄到腦海, 一位少年沿著這條小路踏著單車朝著郵輪在追趕, 揮動著手帕的一位少女在郵輪的甲板上, 眼光緊盯著少年, 無奈對方的身影隨著遠去的郵輪漸漸變小, 直至消失得不見蹤影帶著遺憾, 萬般不捨的畫面

一定不是Titanic裡面的情節, 我對這出電影的故事沒有太大的喜感, 尤其是女主角取了別的男人所贈的寶石, 作為與男主角的定情信物, 真是荒天下之大謬, 更何況念及寶石的來源, 更加不應一提, 第一次看這出電影是在電影院裡, 未到中段已經搵周公吹水去了, 第二次看是在電視上播放的, 好歹也要給它一個機會, 結果都是改變不了我對它的觀感, 若是我喜歡的電影, 我可以重看十數遍, 兩遍已是我給予這出電影最大的極限, 個人感覺, 不喜請直接跳過

煙霞籠罩的天氣下, 對面岸只隱隱約約辨別得到, 反而給人平和容易接受的感覺。在我們的生活當中的一些事情, 是否有必要去刻意地弄得太過清晰呢 ?

RED BANANA

」响J2依家做緊嗰套Mr.Brain裡面, 破案全冇難度, 案件都畀佢諗通晒, 全靠佢一得閒就搣隻蕉嚟吔吓, 吔蕉會令到人頭腦聰明, 起梅花點既蕉仲有防癌作用添, 响西灣河有一男一女疑似係老闆, 行先人好多, 五六年前已經知道香蕉係咁有益處, 於是開咗呢間細細既餐廳, 專門用香蕉嚟整嘢食同嘢飲, 

▼  Virgin Colada= 香蕉奶昔+菠蘿粒, 好香好滑, 真材實料, 又有菠蘿粒可以o趙吓, 唔鍾意香蕉既話, 仲有芒果同埋strawberry soother 酸酸地可以選擇

▼  今次我叫咗呢個番茄芝士焗豬扒飯, 係冇包括香蕉嘅, 佢除咗有好多番茄之外, 仲有青椒同埋秀珍菇, 啲芝士拉出嚟係一絲絲架, 好似話係用咗cheddar cheese, 下次個肚有多啲空位先試其他, 聽聞蕉蕉多士都好掂

▼  我落幾級樓梯, 坐响一個細細地既小天地, 等我帶你由我右手邊逆時針走一圈

▼  好鬼鍾意呢句:別看我, 看路,係啲靚女講既對白嚟

▲  雖然樓梯都有好多字提示叫你小心, 但係佢仲會真人發聲提醒你好多次, 長氣過啲亞媽, 佢亦都好細心, 因為佢連個餐牌都襯到痺, 係紅色底, 對老花眼濛起晒都唔多睇到, 佢即刻遞咗個白底既餐牌畀我

明益班學生哥(妹)啦, 讀書至緊要有個聰明既腦袋嘛, 都好為下一代著想啫 !

▲  地址呀 ! 露底處 !

講開吔蕉, 又記番起嗰套郎如春日風都幾開頭既一個場景, 响校園草地上, 呂奇打開本書遮住塊面, 阻擋陽光,個頭就枕咗响寶珠姐個大脾度, (拍拍) :吔蕉啦, 遞咗一條蕉畀奇哥, (發哆):….唔制, 我要你喂我, 吃吃笑, 將一條蕉連皮塞咗入奇哥個口, 然後就互相追嚟追去, 打嚟打去咁
