Bride Flight
This is a hell of a film to see..Life --beautiful, brutal, subtitled. In a age driven by lower expectations and pursuit of happiness this is humbling and inspiring..Post-war Holland, three young women on a plane to New Zealand to start a new life, a young guy falls in love with one of them..another one has his son, and a third one will raise him as her own..A chance encounter will define all 4 lives and no, no happy ending, maybe some closure when they meet at his funeral years later..I life time of love, anguish, doubts, sacrifices. We don't do this anymore, its too easy to bail out of almost anything, there's no restrain..We don't ever grow up -- infantile till we're senile.. I saw myself in these three women, all three, their secret and sacred bond, I took it to heart. Say it now or forever hold your peace. Only there's no peace in denial..
