And I was so surprised at how well Joseph Conrad works in a MexicCity setting. I noticed that there were no comments on this movie so far, and, since I liked it a lot when I saw it around 15 years ago (it's 2006 now)I want to draw people's attention to it. I can't go into much detail about it after that long a time. It's an understated but fascinating story of the relationship between the two women (the mother of the guy who ran off to sea years earlier and has never come back) and her co-worker in a large office. The younger woman becomes interested, even romantically, in him just from hearing about him, and you, the audience, do, too. Then when he suddenly appears one day, both she and you are in for having your romantic illusions shattered. I was very struck by the last visuals, involving scenes from the ocean, apparently invading a Mexico City apartment. I found on the web that the English title was Shipwreck (though I don't recall that title), and that it was based on Conrad's short story: Tomorrow, which I must try to find and read. I hope my comments will inspire others to find this affecting "little" movie. Note to IMDb: Could "Shipwrecked" be added as an alternative title, or cross reference? 译文(2): 我很惊讶约瑟夫 · 康拉德在墨西哥城的表现。我注意到到目前为止还没有人对这部电影发表评论，而且，因为我在大约15年前(现在是2006年)看到它的时候非常喜欢它，所以我想吸引人们的注意力。过了这么久，我不能说太多细节。这是一个关于两个女人(这个男人的母亲几年前出海，再也没有回来)和她在一个大办公室的同事之间的关系的一个低调但迷人的故事。年轻的女人仅仅因为听说了他的事情就对他产生了兴趣，甚至是浪漫的兴趣，你们这些观众也是如此。然后有一天他突然出现，你和她都会因为你们的浪漫幻想破灭而陷入其中。我被最后的画面所震撼，包括海上的场景，显然是入侵了墨西哥城的一间公寓。我在网上发现这本书的英文书名是《沉船》(尽管我不记得这个书名了) ，它是根据康拉德的短篇小说改编的: 《明天》 ，我必须努力找到并阅读它。我希望我的评论能够激励其他人找到这部感人的“小”电影。IMDb 的注意事项: 是否可以添加“沉船事故”作为替代标题或交叉引用？
