The Three Stories that Inspired the Movie

With a foreword by Pedro Almodóvar

Alice Munro is cherished for her exquisite, affecting meditations on the human heart. In these three linked stories, “Chance,” “Soon,” and “Silence”—which, together, inspired Pedro Almodóvar’s film Julieta—her virtuosic talents are once again on display. The stories follow a schoolteacher named Juliet as she is swept up by fate: meeting an older man on a train and starting an affair; later, visiting her parents as a young mother; and later still, searching for contact with her estranged daughter. As with all of Munro’s characters, Juliet radiates warmth, dignity, and hope, even as she is unflinching in the face of betrayal and loss. In Munro’s hands, her journey is as surprising, extraordinary, and precious as life itself.

    如果说电影最后给了我们这对母女关系会好的一丝希望,那原著的绝望程度把这丝微光彻底掐灭。没有什么仇怨,只是互相疏远的一对母女觉得彼此在自己生命中似乎没什么用处和意义,见面只会徒增情感共享的伤痛。过于细腻的情感和心理描写,常常让我泪流满面。02-04
