*Spoilers* I think I will spoil just about everything, but I need to write down my thoughts...
Beautiful film, because being a film of mid-20th century, being b&w, it requires that YOU use your mind to live the lives of the main characters and understand the morality of the time and dilemmas that are around nowadays too.
This is drama and is all about CHANGES.
He and She.
He was sincerely trying to build his own life, find application of himself as a human and a worker. Love came around. He needed her. And She... just sincerely fell in love.
He was just-out-of-school, "innocent" but perspective economist. She was "nobody".
He failed to break out of the stereotypes of his family and society which he got introduced into by the way of his new job, he was not mature enough to stick to his love. And she was not bitch enough to play the cards so she would win... So he entered into his brand new life, becoming such a person that he hated earlier and she was left with her shattered hopes, her ruined morality. He's over, she will be over too, carrying on being a pure and simply loving spirit.
