    North Film Festival@五禾松. The most loved and most distressed is the original male protagonist. The atmosphere is beautiful and considerate and can go with the situation. The love that grew up with childhood sweethearts has not gone wrong or deteriorated. When the war is in turmoil, she still makes a family like a family. The last seal The letter is so touching. It's a pity that such a woman always loses his man, like a line saying "God does not bless good people". The poet does not write poems for the perfect wife at home.

Doctor Zhivago quotes

  • Gen. Yevgraf Zhivago: This man was your father. Why won't you believe it? Don't you want to believe it?

    The Girl: Not if it isn't true.

    Gen. Yevgraf Zhivago: That's inherited.

  • Komarovski: Strelnikov is dead.

    Zhivago: What?

    Komarovski: Spare me your expressions of regret. He was a murderous neurotic of no use to anyone. Do you see how this affects Larissa? You don't. You're a fool. She's Strelnikov's wife. Why do you think they haven't arrested her - is this the usual practice? Why do you think they had her watched at Yuriatin? They were waiting for Strelnikov.

    Zhivago: If they thought Strelnikov would come running to his wife, they didn't know him...

    Komarovski: They knew him well enough. He was only five miles from here when they caught him. He was arrested on the open road. He didn't conceal his identity - indeed throughout the interview he insisted they call him Pavel Antipov, which is his right name, and refused to answer to the name Strelnikov. On his way to execution, he took a pistol from one of the guards and blew his own brains out.

    Zhivago: Oh my God... don't tell Lara this.

    Komarovski: I think I know Lara at least as well as you. But don't you see how this affects her position? She's served her purpose. These men that came with me today as an escort will come for her and the child tomorrow as a firing squad! Now, I know exactly what you think of me, and why, but if you're not coming with me she's not coming with me! So, are you coming with me? Do you accept the protection of this ignoble Caliban on any terms that Caliban cares to make... or is your delicacy so exorbitant that you would sacrifice a woman and a child to it?
