This song beautifully captures their relationship. The line “Will you still love me when I’m no longer young and beautiful “ is so apt for Cornelia and Eli!
@@natalyamartirosyan so true! Am still having to have a daily dose of watching it on screen (between playing scenes from it in my head!). As Mimi said on another thread: "What has this show done to us!?!?"
Yes - we’ve had lots of exchanges about this on another thread. Would have loved them to stay together but I can see from a storytelling perspective why their story needed to be rounded off rather than just having them ride off into the sunset together. At least this way they were both still alive at the end and Eli had Cornelia’s seeds and she had his ‘home’. We knew from the outset that they were no longer together because Cornelia was clearly remembering a long ago time with Eli so I was just massively relieved he was still alive at the end.
@@Jepopova Sorry - have just seen your post. Here's a link to the post in question: th-cam.com/video/ALs9cb8KajI/w-d-xo.html The discussion starts with M. Walsh's comment about three comments down. You'll notice that it's currently at 50 replies...
A story of soul mates meeting and standing side by side until they have no choice but to part ways not because they don't want to stay together, circumstances forced separation. Great series.
I so wanted them to end up together but when you found out their back story’s you know it’s not going to be a happy ending. So sad, especially how the beauty of Cornelia was slowly being destroyed by a horrendous disease.
Well, Eli had the opportunity to make a difference in the very beginning, but chose to be indifferent (Dante said the center of hell is reserved for the indifferent), and it comes back to haunt him. The choices of his past come back to haunt him and the repercussions come back. At its core this is a tragedy of unrequited love that at its core was pure, however fleeting.
Okay. To me this is the only video for that song. I’m gonna watch it many times and I’m gonna cry every time. That one moment in the end when they look at each other and we are watching from a distance.. so perfect. 💔
I didn't watch this when it first came out. Watched the whole series the other day, my God. What a beautiful story if it had played in theaters Academy awards for sure. What I still don't understand is why, at the end, the sheriff said they had to separate could not be together. I know he explained it, but the way they felt about each other, why didn't they ride off together was it because of her illness they all knew it wouldn't work.
Ta historia złamała mi serce😢 byłam zszokowana zakończeniem. Oni nie mogli być razem: jak Cornelia mogłaby znieść, że Eli ogląda jej stopniowe umieranie, wyniszczenie ciała? Ja bym czegoś takiego nie zniosła. Na jej miejscu nie mogłabym tak żyć, czekając na śmierć, bez nadziei, z tymi wszystkimi wspomnieniami. Myślę, że sama bym się zabiła. Ona była nieprawdopodobnie odważna. Nie umiem się pozbierać po tym serialu.
I dont understand why they had to seperate in the very end. He could have gone with her to England or something. But i remember she said "You could come see England but look how it ended up for pohcohantes".
Do you think Eli thought she needed to go home and be cared for there? Do you think Eli died trying to reclaim a piece of land? These are some of the things I wonder about. It is a beautiful Bitter, sweet love story.
Yes, I think Eli thought that America was too dangerous for Cornelia and that he couldn't look after her the way she needed, because of her illness, and that it was best for her to go home where she would be a lot safer and maybe could have better treatment (we know she lives at least another 13 years in England). He had already lost his entire family and most of his tribe to illness or violence and perhaps at some level couldn't face going through that again - especially not illness since there was nothing at all he could do to fix that. Although Eli and Cornelia survived a range of encounters, it was made very clear that characters could meet a violent end at any time (Cornelia and Eli had various discussions about how "it's just a whole lot of aiming and then one day you miss"). And her illness was causing increasing problems with the way that they were travelling and living. In addition, the sheriff made clear that they had to separate to prevent Eli being hanged for killing David Melmont. I suppose that was because Eli could travel faster alone and also it was Cornelia who arrived in town looking for Melmont, not Eli himself, so it was only through Cornelia that Eli could be connected with killing Melmont. We knew from the outset that Cornelia and Eli were no longer together and that Cornelia was remembering long-ago memories of Eli so I was just hugely relieved that Eli was still alive at the end. Much as I would have loved them to stay together, I think their story did need to be wrapped up properly rather than just have them riding off into the sunset - that would have meant their story just kind of petering out. I think Hugo Blick did really well to create a story-line that allowed both characters to remain alive, but required them to separate in a way which did not throw their love for each other into doubt. I like to think Eli found a patch of land safely and grew a garden from Cornelia's seeds.

@@SophiePalmer-mp9bz Thank you for your comment, very enlightening and well felt, it helped me understand better some underlaying aspects of the story of Cornelia and Eli. I found this series "The English" terrific, such a beautiful but dramatic love story, the most wonderful and talented actors, Emily with darker colored hair, even more beautiful as usual, in her role as Cornelia. As to Chaske : absolutely remarkable and so good looking as Eli ! 😍 Greetings from Belgium.
@@impala5598 Thank you very much for your kind comments. Yes, Emily Blunt and Chaske Spencer were wonderful; I definitely have a bit of a crush on Eli Whipp :)! The whole cast were amazing. The show blew me away - it was several weeks before I could think about anything else. Greetings from London!

Fitting song. So many people are missing out on the best love story in a generation
So true! And those of us who’ve seen it are holding it close and carrying it with us.
@@SophiePalmer-mp9bz we just can’t let it go❤️

Becoming obsessed with it
Words cannot do this series justice. People have to see it to experience it. An epic love story that will be remembered for a long time.
Such a beautiful love they shared. How I wish they could have stayed together.

You have absolutely nailed it in this summary! Completely agree.
I always find these star crossed lovers stories so sad. I loved this series but it broke my heart.

Achingly beautiful love story
Just beautiful for a the most amazing love story
This series was beautifully scripted and the acting is absolute perfection Blunt n Spencer brilliant!

Man, that was a good series! ❤
This song fits them so perfectly, I wish they could have had a happy ending, still crying over it 😭
Their story is beautiful, I found love in them.
So beautiful

Lana Del Rey....fitting song for this . Sweet.
Beautiful 😍
Thank you. That's beautiful
Que edit lindo❤️
Amei demais a história de amor entre Eli e Cornelia😍
Perfeição esse casal🥰
It's a terrific series.
makes you wonder what Eli said to Cornelia as they stood in that last parting scene?????
The English and Normal People, surely two of the greatest drama series ever. Both completely wrecked me!!!
Bonita edición 💕
