      Blue Gate (Blue Summer Love)Blue Gate Crossing

      Blue Gate (Blue Summer Love) Blue Gate Crossing I watched Blue Gate a few years ago. At that time, it was because I saw someone introduce this movie in the post bar, and then I watched the trailer and fell in love with the movie madly. The feeling created here, just by watching the trailer, I know that I will like it very much. The first time I watched it, I didn't have much feeling. I just thought the picture was beautiful and I felt very good. I felt that high school was the best stage of...

      Start by sharing secrets

      You are going to tell me a secret.
        Another unspoken line of dialogue should be, so that I will tell my secret.

        When you are young, you should face many, many new questions, but among these tedious questions, why is one of them "like boys or girls"?
        I'm a girl and I like boys.
        It's a magical spell that seems to come true if you say it a few more times.
        When A Meng met a silly boy, he would repeat the same self-introduction every time, Scorpio, O-type,...

      Written at the end of this summer

      Seven years ago, Gui Lunmei in "The Blue Door" was not beautiful, and could only be considered pure at best.
      But she has that kind of stubborn stubbornness, boldness and frankness, that's
      why she can force the PE teacher without changing her face: Do you want to kiss me?
      It is the gentleness that is occasionally revealed under this kind of hard character that is most likely to impress people.
      So, all of us remember this girl with boyish short hair and a boyish personality....

      Doomed

      Taiwanese directors are always good at this kind of youthful and clean campus films, with young faces and young minds, so clean that people can't resist.

      I will think of us at that time, the simple and kind heart and feelings at that time, the love and friendship at that time.

      I believe that Meng Kerou is not Lala, she just gave her feelings to Lin Yuezhen completely. That kind of feeling is all that a child can bear. Today we call it friendship.
      I think we all go...

      Youth is indeed invincible.

      Someone strongly recommends The Blue Door.

      Summer 2001.
      eighteen years old.
      Bright, blooming, and inexhaustible.
      I won't think about it in the future, everything will just pass from my heart.
      The ears are blunt, and the eyes are covered with gauze.

      Crystallize all the love at that time.

      ----------The dividing line after the nagging ----------

      Gui Lunmei is not beautiful, but it is better than the fresh temperament, which is the most...

      Maybe the blue door is the exit of each of us about the confusion of youth. Meng Kerou will stand outside the door, and Zhang Shihao will also stand outside the door. At that time, our youth was like falling flowers, like flowing water, and finally ended. We will always, forever enter adulthood... Blue represents the melancholy, unknown and youthful youth, the gate separates the zone between the 17-year-old and the later adults, the teenager hesitates, doubting whether to open the door or not,...

      Thirteen years ago, Chen Bolin played a sporty high school boy. He was secretly in love with two or more girls. When he saw the person he liked, he couldn't hold back his smirk. The biggest secret was that his urine couldn't be in a straight line. Thirteen years later,...he went to perform "Unexpectedly". There is also Gui Lunmei, it turns out that she is not so good-looking and so good-looking! Lovely young man, why do you have to grow up and grow...

      8/10. I always feel that a lot of Taiwanese youth films are influenced by Hou Hsiao-hsien and Yang Dechang. They seem to be very bland, but they are actually brewing a more private emotional expression. Although the narrative advancement is relatively closed and does not involve so many elements of historical and current affairs, the characters are still naive and ridiculous. It is very good to complete the sublimation of the individual's same-sex identity, but not fall into many traps such as...

      I really like Kerou's eyes, why was my youth never so...

      The film is very delicate and innocent. The subtle entanglements and emotions in the hearts of boys and girls are a little nostalgic when I think about it now. In the hot summer, the beautiful and plain faces are wandering and confused on the road to growth. This is probably the taste of youth....

    A very smart director uses interesting film language to talk about the bits and pieces between love and growth. (Taiwanese writer Hou Wenyong comment)  The story adheres to a long-lost fresh texture, bringing an intriguing "youth story" to the adult world, bringing people back to that innocent era where countless secrets were buried. (Sina Entertainment Review) 
    "Blue Gate Crossing" is different from the previous youth budding films....
