      Shelter--A True And Beautiful Gay Movie

      On a hazy afternoon in 2007, I happened to watch this gay film.I rarely watch gay movies, and I was sleepy when I saw Brokeback Mountain. But Shelter (trying to cover up the tide) watched it in its entirety. Simple plot, clear soundtrack, relaxed tone. There are no romantic encounters, no obsessions with you and me, and no lustful emotions. It feels very real and beautiful. Sunny sandy beaches, rippling bays, and breezy...

      Shelter--Truly Love Regardless Of Gender

      The original English name is "Shelter," and the Chinese translation is "Want to Cover the Tide," which seems to be a bit of a mouthful. After watching the film, I found that the free translation was not bad, and it clearly described the hero's state of mind. He wanted to cover up and escape at first, but finally chose to surf on the beach of love with the person he loves.

      Shelter--Affection Between Brothers

      When I was young, I longed for a beautiful love, and sometimes I thought of brotherhood as something. I don't know what it is. You're still cool by yourself! I have read the content a few times. My elder sister has an only child, and she always leaves it to her younger brother to look after him.

      She goes to...

      Sunshine, beach, lovers, let's fall in love

      I love this tone the most, romantic to the point of being unreal, an escape from reality.

      Sunshine, beach, lovers, friends, children, childhood sweethearts, everything is so beautiful.

      Homosexuality doesn't have to be painful, it can also be sweet. Love, whether it is to love a man, a woman, or bio has nothing to do with it. Love is just a matter between two people who love each other. It is only about each other, what does it have to do with others? As long as two people...

      shelter

      I haven't watched a movie in a long time.
      Recently, I have been a little impetuous, and I can't calm down and experience a movie.
      It was in this mood that shelter was chosen.
      Summer, sunshine, beaches, handsome guys, I think this should be a relaxing story.

      This is a gay movie.
      Different from its Chinese translation, "Want to cover the tide", it is warm and refreshing.
      Zach, a boy from a small city by the sea, a good painter, an alcoholic father, a deceased...

    Evaluation action

    "Shelter" is a romantic comedy that delights the audience   . Sunny beach and handsome lovers give the love in the film a soap bubble-like dream under the sun. Scorching the sun, showing a strong figure is of course the designated action in the film; the waves are surging, and the temptation of youth is the heart-stopping arrow. The two male protagonists in the film are healthy and cheerful,   and their personalities are open-minded...
