[Film Review] Summer of 85 (2020) 6.7/10
At first glance, a hormonal gay teenager's coming-of-age experience might sound too garden-variety for Ozon's noted sophistication and perverseness, but SUMMER OF 85, based on Aidan Chambers' YA novel DANCE ON MY GRAVE, suggested by that name, apparently wears its morbidity-fixation on its sleeve.

Love is the old-fashioned "Rashomon"
Love is the old-fashioned "Rashomon" who cares more about the posture of retreating than luck in love. If "call me by your name" leaves regrets at the end, "dance on my grave" is like tearing open a bag of expired candy. 'We just fell in love with the one who made it ourselves,' Kate said. Love is...

Ou Rong’s favorite novel "Dance on My Grave" (the Chinese translation of "Young Covenant") at the age of 18 was always a negative image of homosexuality in literary works at that time, but this novel was an exception. The impact from the beginning to the present. When he first made the movie, he faintly used these symbols... Today, he rediscovered the motif of youth, and inadvertently found himself repeating the thoughts of the year. I think Ou Rong is very happy to shoot "85 Years of Summer". He is returning to his youth and realizing a youth dream. It turns out that the previous works are clues, and this (novel) is the prototype. Ou Rong, who was on the scene, was younger and lively than in the photo, and stood with the two male protagonists like a big boy. No wonder the French love it so much. #La seule façon de retrouver un roman, c'est de le réaliser dans un film. Watched it twice.

If "cmbyn" was introduced from the public to LGBTQ, "Summer of '85" was introduced from LGBTQ to the public... Although there is no strong retro feeling as expected, the various scenes in front are really shy and satisfying. , And the narrative style of double-line crossing makes the suspense gradually increase, and it actually feels like watching "Shounen Pi". No matter how you look at this story in the end, you may be satisfied, and to distinguish the way you look at this story, perhaps there is only one question-do you believe in "love"? And what I have mixed up is that my thoughts sway at these two ends, and it is precisely because of the swaying feeling that makes this story particularly beautiful in the scene at the end of the double line crossover. 4.5 to 5, maybe I will watch the second story again.
