Breve Encontro
24/11/1945
Vencedor da Palma de Ouro no Festival de Cannes, 1946. Ao adaptar a peça de Noel Coward, Still Life, o lendário realizador David Lean explora, de forma arrojada, as emoções, a dor e a ternura de um romance ilícito, durante os tempos sérios e sombrios que a Inglaterra vivia em 1945. Na sequência de um encontro casual na plataforma de uma estação de comboio, um médico casado de meia-idade (Trevor Howard) e uma esposa dos subúrbios (Celia Johnson) iniciam uma relação amorosa, serena e apaixonada, mas com um destino trágico.
