The professor devoted his life, but was eventually framed by his interests and was suspended, humiliated and tortured because of his sexual orientation; the prejudice of society was so powerful that it crushed individuals in an instant; the Delhi High Court of India abolished the criminal law in 10 years377 Article 377 was upheld by the High Court three years later, and sexual orientation was criminalized again. The funny thing is that Article 377 is a product of British colonialism, but it has...

The most chilling thing about the film, besides the death of the professor at the end, is the side note: India re-criminalizes homosexuality. . . I can't figure out why India would drive such a reverse car. It's really more hurtful than always guilty. The professor did a good job. His eyes were full of drama, and the interpretation of the character was very emotional. Where did he say the three words 'homosexual' It's enough to describe that feeling. It's a...

So are you gay? How can three words be enough to express my feelings? It was like a poem, buried deep in my heart, an irrepressible desire, an irrepressible impulse. We always like to put labels on people that we can understand, but how many people understand the real situation? A rare Indian literary film, delicate and restrained and full of...

The sudden sadness at the end, especially the sense of suffocation that re-incriminates, is definitely a plus point. It saves the unnecessary slow-paced advancement and interspersed narrative of the whole film. The courtroom part draws on many American movie shooting...

It turns out that fame and honor are so fragile in the face of sexual orientation, it turns out that all laws are so grand in the face of so-called "scandals", it turns out that whoever you like can't be dominated by self-consciousness. The game in the courtroom is very exciting, but the winning ending cannot save the utterly injured heart and a lost life. Why should everyone pay attention to private life and decide whether it is right or wrong? Regressive equality can only be...

Based on the most tolerant period in the history of India for same-sex groups, the real events that happened a few years after the decriminalization of homosexuality, in the extremely restrained narrative, you can still feel the ruthless trampling on the humanity and dignity of the same-sex group by the moral public, and it is cold. The ending is undoubtedly a silent attack and indictment of the ugly fact that India has re-criminalized homosexuality. It is generally a bit bland, but some parts...

In Indian society, an old man grieves more than the story of his heart's death. A bit of separation between the reporter line, the court line and the old man's life line is better than the theme itself. However, Indian society is very bipolar, and gay movies are not so rare. Recently, I was watching the Indian gay online drama "Romil and...

Some commented that it is the Indian version of "Philadelphia Story", but it looks more like the Indian version of "Wilde". From the perspective of gay reality, it is better than "Wilde" and "The Philadelphia...
