To Aslan

Yes it is, It is awfully sad but a beautiful movie. The narrator begins to have conflicts with Maxim. Over the next few weeks, the narrator spends most of her free time with Maxim, either lunching with him in the dining room or driving with him around Monte Carlo. She realizes that she has fallen in love with him and wishes that there were a way to keep the memory of their time together fresh and new. When she tells Maxim about this desire, he laughs at her, and the narrator realizes how far apart they are in age and understanding. She is unable to imagine that he could ever have romantic feelings for her and feels very young and alone.
