Clannad movie forget me not full#
He is greeted by Owen, a four year old full of beans, who runs off for his parents. With renewed purpose, Benedict goes to Isobel’s house. Content at last that her message will be passed on, she hugs Benedict and disappears, leaving her balloon to ascend into the night sky. He promises to get the bear to Owen in time for Christmas. She offers him her bear and, looking at it in a new light, he now notices that sown into the label is the name and address of Owen, Isobel’s brother. That night, finally realising that Isobel needs his help, not the other way around, Benedict finds her and apologises. On Christmas Eve, straying from his usual spot after Jack gives him cash to buy a coffee, Benedict sees a photograph of Isobel nestled among old bouquets of flowers that mark the site of a fatal traffic accident. Terrified and distraught, Isobel runs away. The same thing happens over the next several days as Isobel tries - and fails - to communicate with Benedict, succeeding only in frustrating him.Īs the days go by, Isobel’s hope diminishes until, two nights before Christmas, Benedict becomes angry and yells at her to leave him alone. Benedict thinks little of it, assuming he was dreaming. But next morning, the bear has disappeared. In an effort to communicate with Benedict, Isobel gives him her teddy bear as he sleeps.

He is the only person who can see her and is, she realises, her only hope. To her amazement, Benedict looks up and stares right at her. Wandering the streets, increasingly hopeless, she that night comes across him again and, despite her own situation, she feels sad for him and stops to look. Isobel stops to look at Benedict, empathising with his plight. Benedict stares vacantly and barely responds, but Jack accepts this as normal and continues on his way. Jack walks to Benedict (Cosmo), an older homeless man, giving him a coffee as part of his daily ritual. She seems to share his concerns and follows him. Isobel intently watches a world-weary commuter, Jack (Heffernan), as he speaks to his troubled young son on the phone. She looks like she wants help, but no-one notices her. Isobel (Royle), a silent young girl, is lost and alone on the streets of London.
