sad as a poem in a nightmare

Never Let Me Go, this title alone has enough reasons for me to like it. I originally wanted to watch this movie because of the poster I saw occasionally. Carey Mulligan, Andrew Garfield, and Keira Knightley stopped and looked back on a country road, with a quiet country atmosphere. I am a person with a strong sense of pictures. Movies don’t have to be intense or funny, as long as the pictures are beautiful, they can impress me. Never Let Me Go is like that, I don't know if all the British films of that era were as grey as the London sky, but I like the feeling.

Nurse: Oh.
Kathy: How is she?
Nurse: ...Were you close?
Kathy: We haven't seen each other now for almost ten years.
Nurse: Well, Ruth isn't as strong as we would hope, at this stage.
Kathy: She's done two donations?
Nurse: She has.
Kathy: ...You think she'll complete on the third?
Nurse: I think she wants to complete. And, as you know, when they want to complete, they usually do.
