Watch In a Garden

The gardener tells the story he has seen unfolded within the precincts of a beautiful spot: the beginning of affection between two, the quarrel and the reconciliation years afterward. The ups and downs and ups of a romance over 30 years, told as a series of flashbacks by the gardener who witnessed them. The final garden scene, which is back-lit by the sun, appears to use fill lights or reflectors (which would have been a startling innovation) or may be lucky natural fill by scattered or thin clouds. Either way, the Thanho cinematographers always showed remarkable skill in dealing with the widely variable lighting conditions in their extensive exterior location work.
