    • Quotes

      [last lines]

      Ginger: [sitting writing in notebook] We had a dream... that we would always be best friends. When we were born... for some it was the end. Now it seems there may not be tomorrow. But despite the horror... and the sorrow... I love our world. I want us all to live. Now, Rosa, you've asked me to forgive. One day, if Mum survives this bitter night... then we shall meet again, and I will say... I loved you, Rosa. Don't you see? But we are different. You dream of everlasting love. Not me. Because what really matters, is to live. And if we do... there will be nothing to forgive.

      Roland: [sitting nearby] What are you writing?

      Ginger: Oh, a poem... about the future.

      Roland: I'm sorry, Ginger. I'm so sorry.

      Ginger: [continues to writing] But I'll forgive you anyway.

    terrificly well played film
    I don't understand, why this movie is rated that bad so far. The topic might not interest everybody (1960, London, two adolescent girls, Cuba-crisis), but this movie is played so magically intensively and sensitive, I really enjoyed watching the movie the whole time.

    The story is not obvious from the beginning and it is not a gay-movie, as you might think from watching the trailer. It is more about the cold war in bigger terms and problems of growing girls in family terms.

    Elle Fanning is probably the best young actress of the last years! (All other actors play very convincing as well).

    The directing of Sally Potter is fantastic as always. I hope the movie will be recognized as it is:

    A precious gem!
