‘This can’t last. This misery can’t last. I must remember that and try to control myself. Nothing lasts really. Neither happiness nor despair. Not even life lasts very long. There’ll come a time in the future when I shan’t mind about this anymore, when I can look back and say quite peacefully and cheerfully how silly I was. No, no, I don’t want that time to come ever. I want to remember every minute, always, always to the end of my days.’ Celia Johnson and Trevor Howard star in an unforgettable account of passion thwarted by a very English combination of common sense and respect for social propriety. David Lean’s classic romantic drama takes place in and around the fictional Milford Railway station, its almost-tragic tale of almost-lovers played out against a soundtrack of steam trains and Rachmaninoff.
