Atonement



This highly awarded film is about a pair of unlikely lovers (a high class lady Cecelia and a housekeeper's son Robbie) who just as they are finding their way to each other are torn apart by a false accusation by Cecelia's young sister Briony. As WWII breaks out Robbie is given the choice of enlisting or prison, so he chooses to enlist. As time passes Briony realizes her mistake but unfortunately it is too late to make amends. This was a great film and when you watch it you realize why it was nominated for so many awards.
