And because of another reason too. Water stands for life, death, and relationships, here we can see that water is completely transparent, so this means that their relationship is pure. On the other hand, in the scene where Robbie rescues Briony, water is muddy, so we can imagine what it means😅 but this is from my point of view as a reader, you are right too though, and yours is a beautiful interpretation😊
After watching this video I thought it was going to be a sweet lovely romantic movie... And then everything started going wrong. Damn wrong. Damn freaking wrong.
+AlexanderXIX I cried ㅠㅠ I watched it last night and still, I wish it would be happy ending as the novel that Briony wrote. But sadly the fact is they both died. and it made me cry. it's all because of stupid Briony!
I would like to thank whoever his hairstylist and makeup artists were because they did a mind blowing job at somehow making the already attractive James mcavoy even more goods looking
Funny how people are hating on how keira is skinny, but then when people are hating fat people it is: WHAT NOOOOOO Keira is gorgeous, talented and has worked with the best actorss!! get over it And james is hawt!!
Her figure is that of a healthy young woman. People naturally gain an average of 10 pounds every 10 years of additional life because of slowing metabolism. Look it up. Its perfectly healthy for a woman as young as Kiera is in this movie to be slender.
everything about this scene/ movie is just absolutely breathtaking, the glowing beams of dreamlike sunlight, the parallel structure and camera angles, the outfits, the transitions, the subtle hints at a former relationship (e.g she stares him right in the face as she removes her garments and he almost forgets to turn away) the innocence of two beautiful lovers, james, mcavoy
While promoting Speak No Evil, James said that in the library scene, he and Keira kiss for the first time and it shouldn't really work because both their characters are almost like brother and sister but then they try again and their tongues touch and suddenly something clicks and it's like they're both signing a contract for the rest of their lives. The fountain scene really is that moment where they get extremely close to that shift that will change them for good. They dare each other to do it while not daring to themselves.
Crivens, that runaway laugh he gives at 0:22 ... that truly is adorable. That, and the other laugh at 0:17. I wonder if those were scripted, or was it James McAvoy breaking character in the scene and they decided to leave them in because it made him seem so charming and endearing?
snipergirl21 James said that Robbie was just too perfect.I think Robbie laughed to make cecilia relax and he smiled bc he's really really adorable.he's kind from botom of the heart.
The thing about this film is that it's shot almost like a dream. Everything just seems to "glow" and perhaps, I'd like to think, it was intentional, knowing that at the end, it's because it's telling their story. It's made to draw you in and well, rip you apart at the end, I suppose. Very beautifully written and acted--the cinematography was impecable--the costume design--the score--all of it. Grandiose...
5 years back i saw this movie for the first time and that's when i fell in love with James Macvoy. He is not that text book 6 feet guy with more bulk on him than a turkey, but those intense eyes can make any girl weak on her knees.
I can feel the sexual tension between them. This scene excites me a lot and truly makes me want to fall in love, probably my favourite part of the movie. OH NO wait maybe not. Such a beautiful romance movie, I cried all the time while watching it :( and when I'll heal from the wounds it caused me I'll watch it again
His eyes are as blue as his shirt but what really floors me is how simple yet intense and powerful his acting can be.Everyone did a wonderful job in this movie #McAvoyers #PiercingBlueGaze #Atonement
It’s movies like this that really stick with you. And the characters have so much depth that when the movie is over or a character dies it’s like losing someone you know. Truly an iconic movie!
3 comments are missing His beautiful laugh when she calls him idiot! the way he looked at her when she undresses her clothes and the way he looked again when she jumped off the water . 3 words summarizes it: My Favourite scene♥
I just don't understand it for the life of me... this man's simplest look can also be his most intense (and sexiest) look at the sometime....darn him lol!
This is so unbelievably sensual Hell, the whole film was sensual. it feels so REAL, back when love was so passionate and authentic Scenes like these transport me to a completely different place
Just the way he looks at her, than he turns his face the moment she looks away says everything. ❤ They both are in love with each other. She keeps her eyes on him the entire time she's dressing. He's gripping tightly, and feels her eyes on him. Not one word was spoken but you feel the tension between them. But his laugh is so adorable. "Not anymore it isn't." 1:11 ❤❤
I happened to stumble upon this while watching Pride and Prejudice clips, and I instantly was enraptured. Little did I know the rest of the story and the true context of it all. But I look back and think about my first time watching this, and when I discovered the ending I was doused with ice water😂🥺 Still, I absolutely love this movie, despite the pain and heartache I’m left with in the aftermath.
I once heard in an interview that sometimes the most effective acting comes from holding back rather than letting go. I think that is also true in the case of trying not to look at someone rather than just letting yourself stare at them.
I still don’t understand why this man hasn’t gotten an Oscar yet 😩 and she’s just so talented and gorgeous! I love her in all the movies the has done. Especially Becoming Jane 😭💖
Two very beautiful people in one scene I'm not gay but keira is like my new woman crush ugh she's so pretty her body is actually very nice I like my curves but if I was to be skinny keiras body for sure and that height gush supermodel x) and the guy idk his name he's HOT with his silly smile :D ...It's funny how women hate on someone with beauty that they lack stop the hating and appreciate beauty and class it brings beauty to your own life but hating makes you more uglier 😉
+Misz Bella Benzz A lot of people comment on keira's lack of a big chest but honestly, that's party why I admire her. She is real and beautiful the way she is. A lot of fake haters out there..
+IBeMelissa people say sometimes I look like Keira but with more weight (and less pretty) xD I still have hardly any boobs despite that but she is so thin
+IBeMelissa Keira is a bit underweight (I love her slim and delicate figure, but in some of her films it makes her look unhealthy), although the lack of breast size is something you rarely pay attention to in the movie as her emotional presence makes you forget about everything except her face :)
IBeMelissa yes i totally agree yes she is very skinny but its not like she lacks boobs and curves i do see she have some curves going for herself i would love to have that bod i wouldnt have no problem fitting into any clothingand yes i totally agree! i just think there just too many jealous people on youtube and its ridiculous half of them are not as pretty as keira which is the funny part. but glad that im not the only one who appreciates her beauty :))
I love how my brothers, & sisters in humanity, commented on this clip here. They've expressed what I felt long ago about this scene. Oh merciful God. It melts me every time I watch it. Even after so many times of thinking that I will never feel this fever of love again.
they were perfect together... great chemistry, timing, everything... absolutely loved it! my favourite romantic movie of all time (the notebook can suck it. YEAH I SAID SUCK IT)
The way he touches the water because it was touched by her. Just poetic.
And because of another reason too. Water stands for life, death, and relationships, here we can see that water is completely transparent, so this means that their relationship is pure. On the other hand, in the scene where Robbie rescues Briony, water is muddy, so we can imagine what it means😅 but this is from my point of view as a reader, you are right too though, and yours is a beautiful interpretation😊
in the book, the purported reason was "to quell" the water. interesting?
I feel like man in real life dont have the thought process to do something like that.
Joana Santos wish men were really that romantic
I feel very sorry on how many women think that men are numbness. Especially when we suffer about you.
that is the deepest fountain I have ever seen!
just when i think humanity is lost, a comment like that brings us back from the brink
Pink Elephants which one..? :D
Ikr
Apparently, in the book it was a pond.
It's the cleanest one inside I have seen!!
they're not even touching or looking directly at each other and it's the most sexual scene ever
scrainbow1234 well but that is a see through dress
@Luxe Lady That scene is more passionate than sexual, though.
*sensual
the sexual tension is no joke
Keira is so photogenic and cinematic, she is made for film
Truly she is! Her acting skills are wonderful too. Love that she has done so many period films
I seriously thought this was Natalie portman
Rightly said!!
She is absolute beauty inside out.
@JJ M I was talking about looks
This comment is so ic, it is made for UA-cam
He's too gorgeous. Those eyes render me useless.
1:07. You can hear all the ovaries detonating.
hahaa too funny
Stannis The Mannis i had paused at the exact same minute to admire his beauty, before reading your comment 😂
She*
It's like he's literally shining
daaaaaaaammmnn that tension! the way he was clenching his hand...just daamn
That is a deep-ass fountain.
It was a pond in the book!
ZoyBeans it is beautiful though isn't it.on a hot summer day
that is exactly what I said to myself when she went down
Normal fountains aren't so deep I use to fish out little toys and coins when I was little 😂
This comment section is aggressively passionate.
It's hard not to be, what with Keira Knightley and James McAvoy both looking ready to freaking nail someone
@@sara-vf5xzeach other
After watching this video I thought it was going to be a sweet lovely romantic movie...
And then everything started going wrong. Damn wrong. Damn freaking wrong.
+Ad Astra :'( i know, right? i fuckin know :''''''''((((((
jajajaja the same
but is it happy ending story?
Sophie Jaejoong uhm, ehm.. no. not at all. this movie gets to you and leave you with an emptiness for hours, maybe days u.u
+AlexanderXIX I cried ㅠㅠ I watched it last night and still, I wish it would be happy ending as the novel that Briony wrote. But sadly the fact is they both died. and it made me cry. it's all because of stupid Briony!
He looks innocent. His eyes his hair AND HIS FACE IS SO GORGEOUS AND HANDSOME. OH MY EFFIN GOD I CANT TAKE THIS!!!!!! :((((((((
And then they're doing not so innocent acts in the library. Aesthetically pleasing that is how each of them lost their stuff before impending doom
can boys dress like this again, please?
Or act like this damn😭😭
I wish we can wear these clothes again. I like the 1940s fashion.
@Kry Kry Europe or Asia
YESS
Kry Kry I see you’ve never been to asian then
The way he touches the object while she's getting dressed...
I know right. So freaking sexual.
I noticed that too phew
fucKKKKK
Haha I thought he was break it again
I just realized that object kind of looks like the full anatomy of the clitoris
I feel like I just experienced something spiritual. The romantic tension... yikes.
+slaggeylindsay It was more like sexual tension really...*note how he rubs the broken piece of the teapot at 1:29-but I see what you mean.
🤣
He looks gorgeous here
So are you
@@anantambisht4895damn
I would like to thank whoever his hairstylist and makeup artists were because they did a mind blowing job at somehow making the already attractive James mcavoy even more goods looking
Emma long name Ikr he’s so damn good looking in this movie it’s distracting.. especially those eyes 😍
He's so perfect OMG...
who is he?
Lila Lila James McAvoy
Hâm Hấp Hằng oh thanks
Lila Lila No problem
Aaaant this is how I fell in love with James McAvoy. This movie and The last king of Scotland.
NARNIA IS WHERE HE WON ME OVER.
Stan talent stan P101's Jung Sewoon i feel exactly the same! he is so fine in those movies!
You should try "Rory O'Shea was here", my favorite.
I don't know which movie made me fall for James (Becoming Jane or this one, Atonement), but he did CATCH my eye since The Chronicles of Narnia. Sigh💓
Sewoon is life and Ongniel is science Penelope was where I fell for him 💕
I love his laugh. Ahh perfection. So damn handsome
+Ali Dangou UA-cam the new Tinder?
who tf builds a 10 ft deep fountain
Christina Huang Well they had to have some excuse to get her conpletely wet didnt they..😆
I would do it😅
@Pareidolia what? She's standing on the edge
apparently the british
The sexual tension is plainly beautiful
Funny how people are hating on how keira is skinny, but then when people are hating fat people it is: WHAT NOOOOOO
Keira is gorgeous, talented and has worked with the best actorss!! get over it
And james is hawt!!
totally agree
nerdwithapurpose yeah i have seen comments
Their are different degrees, yes it's hate but it is very different hate
She normal and healthy lol. Not skinny.
Her figure is that of a healthy young woman. People naturally gain an average of 10 pounds every 10 years of additional life because of slowing metabolism. Look it up. Its perfectly healthy for a woman as young as Kiera is in this movie to be slender.
everything about this scene/ movie is just absolutely breathtaking, the glowing beams of dreamlike sunlight, the parallel structure and camera angles, the outfits, the transitions, the subtle hints at a former relationship (e.g she stares him right in the face as she removes her garments and he almost forgets to turn away) the innocence of two beautiful lovers, james, mcavoy

When he touches the water.......... !!!!!!
Crivens, that runaway laugh he gives at 0:22 ... that truly is adorable. That, and the other laugh at 0:17. I wonder if those were scripted, or was it James McAvoy breaking character in the scene and they decided to leave them in because it made him seem so charming and endearing?
snipergirl21 James said that Robbie was just too perfect.I think Robbie laughed to make cecilia relax and he smiled bc he's really really adorable.he's kind from botom of the heart.
it's something when he touches the water, is love
Love this scene. The innocence of it all :)
James’ acting in this scene is sublime. A relatively simple scene, and yet he adds little nuances that make it remarkable.
When I have a daughter I will tell her : "find a guy who looks at you the way James looks at Keira at 1:08"
YEAH
Just don't call your daughter Briony!
That's not the best heuristic for future financial stability.
Find a guy who looks like James McAvoy
Hopefully she will not be wet,😅
why are all the people here putting her down ? she is beautiful. they both are good looking people and they did a good job in this movie.
him touching the water was more alluring than her getting out of the water! felt like he was touching her without touching her!!
Love the cinematography of this film, how everything seems to glow.
The thing about this film is that it's shot almost like a dream. Everything just seems to "glow" and perhaps, I'd like to think, it was intentional, knowing that at the end, it's because it's telling their story. It's made to draw you in and well, rip you apart at the end, I suppose. Very beautifully written and acted--the cinematography was impecable--the costume design--the score--all of it. Grandiose...
He looks like a freaking angel...I'm speechless.
He's just too cute in this movie,God I love him.
He has the most gorgeous intense blue eyes in the world!
Fountain is really deep
5 years back i saw this movie for the first time and that's when i fell in love with James Macvoy. He is not that text book 6 feet guy with more bulk on him than a turkey, but those intense eyes can make any girl weak on her knees.

this is exactly how i feel. I want to watch it over and over again but it's so sad that i can't
The tension in this scene is as deep as that freaking fountain... 😂
😂
His eyes are as blue as his shirt but what really floors me is how simple yet intense and powerful his acting can be.Everyone did a wonderful job in this movie #McAvoyers #PiercingBlueGaze #Atonement
Can I have him?
youre fucking disgusting
absolutely disgusting...im curious has that line actually worked on women?
lol that actually made me laugh
but im still not even remotely interested
lol nice try, but no
Wow, this is all super romantic. I feel like I'm watching When Harry Met Sally.
When I saw this movie I couldn't believe this handsome man and the goat man from Narnia were the same person! 😱😱
Ah, the care and love in that "Careful!" How can you not love Robbie(or James)?
I love when he puts the hand on the water
After seeing that look in his face, I don't know what to do with my life anymore!
i loved the way he didnt avert his eyes. immediately.
I CANT EVEN
ahahaha :D
I can tell😅
Keira in this scene in the fountain water foreshadows the end of this movie
This is very smart. I didn't realize this.
Ahhh, yes!!!
1:06 the way he BREATHES omg
Oh God his laugh..
I love the fountain scene..
I love this scene! The way he clenches his hand is so sexy to me, which is strange I know, but it's like he's fighting for control.... awesome
god i literally watch this scene weekly he's the IDEAL man makes my heart flutter lmao
It’s movies like this that really stick with you. And the characters have so much depth that when the movie is over or a character dies it’s like losing someone you know. Truly an iconic movie!
The way he laughs at 0:15 when she says "You idiot"....
the way he clenches his fist at 1:34 does things to me

His beautiful laugh when she calls him idiot!
the way he looked at her when she undresses her clothes
and the way he looked again when she jumped off the water .
3 words summarizes it: My Favourite scene♥
WARNING: Immersion in a stagnant pool like that risks a deadly bacterial infection. That's how David Niven nearly died filming The Guns of Navarone.
We'll go back to 1935 and warn them.
I just don't understand it for the life of me... this man's simplest look can also be his most intense (and sexiest) look at the sometime....darn him lol!
This is so unbelievably sensual
Hell, the whole film was sensual.
it feels so REAL, back when love was so passionate and authentic
Scenes like these transport me to a completely different place
One of the best movies ever, so touching and thought provokative. James's acting is brilliant, breathtaking, love him so much!

why is he soooo amazing man...gosh I just love James Mcavoy so talented an amazing an talented an more amazing♥
I still don’t understand why this man hasn’t gotten an Oscar yet 😩 and she’s just so talented and gorgeous! I love her in all the movies the has done. Especially Becoming Jane 😭💖

This is a wonderfull scene and a wonderfull movie.
He really is truly handsome
He's Hot.
His name's James Mcavoy, you welcome
Oh my gad. Why is James here so so so just handsome! God! 😍

Oh James, tsk tsk-- getting all the women wet--- no fountain needed!
No
that lip licking at 1:55 is just everything
such an underrated, beautiful movie. acting is incredible.
That house wtf 😍
his eyes are so intense
Heaven have mercy on my soul. Keira Knightley is so good to look at.
I love James! :') and wow. I could swim in that deep of a fountain. .
I'm a simple girl. I see James McAvoy licking his lips i click
"You realize that's probably the most valuable thing we own!"
"Not anymore it isn't."
SAVAGE
I love how my brothers, & sisters in humanity, commented on this clip here. They've expressed what I felt long ago about this scene. Oh merciful God. It melts me every time I watch it. Even after so many times of thinking that I will never feel this fever of love again.
The way he looked at her was actual goals
I love his hands, i love his look, his eyes are so deep . Guapo guapo! 😍
This movie was so sad but so beautiful like this movie is something to remember in early middle school.
Damn this scene is so beautiful/sexy.
they both are so attractive , I want to die
This movie made me cry and ponder so much. How one lie can ruin lives forever.
I've always wanted to just rip my clothes off and jump in a fountain just like in that scene!
The shot of his fist reminded me so much of pride and prejudice when darcy and her first touch!! She’s amazing in both movies!!!
The way he looks at her when she pops out of the water... :)
The wardrobe is sublime, gooood job costume designer ❤️❤️
This is easily one of the most romantic scenes in film
James is extremely beautiful in this film. But this film will break your heart into pieces.
they were perfect together... great chemistry, timing, everything... absolutely loved it! my favourite romantic movie of all time (the notebook can suck it. YEAH I SAID SUCK IT)
He looks like my husband, he’s Scottish too, I’m lucky
Same here but mine is welsh and irish
Oh Robbie Robbie Robbie…..you have no idea what i would have done with to you.
