so this dario marinelli score with the typewriter as the percussion is one of my favorite scores to write to (he won an oscar for it) #atonementwatch
ahhhh young saoirse...she has a real snap to her acting even though she was all of 13 when this was made #atonementwatch
green is such a telltale color in this film #atonementwatch
Briony is such a prissy persnickety WRITER early on, it& #39;s a great foreshadowing of how she prizes a grand narrative in her life over truth; anything to make the play #atonementwatch
the way this shot even shocked me when I first saw it, I can imagine how briony doesn’t really understand what she’s seeing #atonementwatch
Kiera is SO good in this film; she& #39;s playing the perfect type of character for her skillset: witty and slightly cold but willing to warm to the right person, like a clawed cat. When anyone questions her acting I send them right to this scene.

oh god here comes cumberbatch in his most creeptacular role; he makes my skin crawl #atonementwatch
this little weasel stache.....Thx I hate it #atonementwatch
I still want this suit #atonementwatch
the way he says top marks still makes me want to smack him #atonementwatch
I love that he puts on opera to type to on the hottest day of the year and it ignites his...passions #atonementwatch
the face of a man about to type “sweet sweet c*nt” #atonementwatch
the HEARTBREAK of him discovering he has delivered the wrong letter into the hands of a prying little girl who will absolutely read the damn thing #atonementwatch
"what& #39;s the worst word you can imagine?" - a girl who wants to be a writer so she thinks words have power but who doesn& #39;t yet understand nuance, irony, or play #atonementwatch
this shot! the way both celia and robbie are crucified for their love affair by a person who thinks they are seeing a horror story because she has no context other than her own imagination #atonementwatch
the fact that they profess love right before briony walks in still hurts my heart; she is seeing the beginning of a beautiful thing but she contorts it immediately in her mind into something malignant. the disconnect is so jarring #atonementwatch
and now it instantly becomes a story about class; the violence of it. celia won& #39;t admit what happened because she would have to admit to loving the housekeeper& #39;s son. benedict& #39;s character thinks he is entitled to take anything he wants, which is disgusting #atonementwatch
here& #39;s the thing: briony fancies herself a writer. above all. it& #39;s the ONLY way she& #39;s ever gotten attention in a house where her beautiful sister/golden brother dominate. so she writes the most fantastical story she can here. it& #39;s for attention. but is it evil? #atonementwatch
