Secrets and Lies

By Jared Kraminitz January 28, 2008

Class politics, epistolary confusion, girlish infatuation, a world war and a youthful misunderstanding that leads to disaster form the crux of Atonement. Robbie Turner (James McAvoy) is a young man who works on the Tallis family estate, keenly observed by the Tallis sisters. The older, Cecilia (Keira Knightley) attended college with Robbie, where she ignored him for four years, while the younger, Briony (Saoirse Ronan) is not-so-secretly in love with him. Based on the novel by Ian McEwan, the film focuses on the intertwined lives of these three characters, shifting between them seamlessly, with little warning.
