Do Any Of You Have Any Idea What Film I'm Talking About?
When I was little I watched a film from which I only remember a few scenes and I really want to watch it again.
It felt like a period drama set in the Victorian era. There was a young man in it with long blond hair. He was in a crowd, nervously reading a poem he had written and people seemed uninterested and they gradually left him. A woman was really disappointed to see people getting bored. A middle aged man approached the young man and told him something like:"Look at your hands. They're meant for hard work not writing poems, son.". He kept looking at his hands and then he asked the woman what she thinks about his hands and she said that they're beautiful.
I remember nothing more till the time I saw that same young man sitting in front of a few men while they asked him basic mathematical questions. He could barely answer any question and the men were so disappointed they decided he should start from the second year of primary school again. He then went to a boys' school and started studying with little children. He befriended a little boy and began to do quite well at school and impress his teacher. The last scene I remember is that the young man and the little boy went to sit next to a river and while the young man wanted to practice math, the little boy urged him to listen to the sound of the river.
That's all I remember.
