在英国一个古老公馆里，有一位忠诚的仆人斯蒂芬斯（安东尼·霍普金斯饰），他经营得漂亮，成为了这里的大管家。 sudden arrival of a sharp-witted housekeeper, Mrs. Brown (Emma Thompson) sets the stage for a series of clashes with Mr. Stevens, who is initially resistant to her modern ways. However, as time goes by, kind-hearted Mrs. Brown softens the gruff Mr. Stevens' heart. Despite her attempts to express affection, Mr. Stevens remains stoic, harboring feelings that he keeps buried in silence. Eventually, Mrs. Brown marries and moves away, leaving a tale of unrequited love behind. Years later, they meet again, their mutual longing left unsaid as a wistful farewell at the train station becomes a poignant goodbye. A beautifully crafted story about love lost in silence and the power of human connection, "The Remains of the Day" is a must-watch for anyone who appreciates powerful acting and heartfelt emotion.
how to be a good butler? the colder, the better. 其實感覺兩人的感情戲份沒有鋪墊，並不能算是全片重點，穿插其中的歷史背景以及對“忠誠”這個詞的闡釋才是值得分析的，還有old-fashioned英式信仰與理念的沒落。冷漠隱忍克制悶騷，像摩羯男？indeed. 雖然憋得慌，卻不能算是悶片。
