      Monster's loneliness

      At nine o'clock there is an article that has been pushed for a long time: loneliness is the best punishment for you. This sentence is fully applicable to Will and Clayton: one is exiled from the world because of a distinctive "orientation", the other is due to a temporary diaosi situation and psychological immaturity. It's just that the latter can return to the world of "ordinary people" over time, while the former can only be kept outside the door of the living forever-according to the...

      Frankenstein and his creation

      All my lovers, don't be sad for me. Now I am suffering day and night, and I can barely rely on pills to get a little peace.
        I used to have a wonderful life, but now everything has passed, my spirit is getting worse and worse, and I am afraid that they will take me away one day. So please forgive me, all my love and God, I don’t want to suffer this pain anymore, it’s good for everyone.
        The future is only aging, disease and pain, so goodbye.

                      ——James Whale...

      About loneliness

      I was looking at the gay area, but after reading it, I found that I was wrong. This is just a biography, telling a lonely biography, but the owner of the biography is gay.

      I watched this film at night and I didn't sleep well all night. It was really great. The elements are horror (or suspense, how did the old man induce the gardener to kill himself? And the interspersed black and white film of Dr. Devil, which has a powerful stimulating effect), anti-war, humanity, courage,...

      Hand-made monster

      What is this movie about? It's really hard to answer. I think it is like a dance by the dying old man, James Whale, a period of life blooming peacefully; it is also like seeing the decline and vicissitudes of life. James Whale was immersed in reminiscence and thinking from the beginning to the end. He thought of his young lover, his movies, and there must be many thoughts that have not been filmed. When a person is old, most of his thinking is stale. In my opinion, this is the only thing a...

    Movie plot

    The famous Hollywood director James Weir created the most thrilling character "Frankenstein" in film history. He has faded out of the film industry for a long time. When Hannah, the housekeeper, hired Boone, a strong former Marine Corps member, as the new gardener, Will's interest gradually shifted to Boone. He approached Boone like a spider crawling towards a fly. Lead the latter step by step into a well-designed trap. It turns out...

    Evaluation action

    "Gods and Monsters" is a film about homosexuality. There is no strange or erotic plot. The whole story structure is very stable and calm, but it is not empty. If you watch it with a curious or colored mentality, it is destined to be disappointed, and the huge gap between the homosexual theme of the film and the age will also attract the contempt and contempt of Taoists. Through the subtle contact between the old Hollywood director and...
