their group (our group)

It's hard to believe that such a film was born in 1970.

We have to understand the context at the time. (It was the best of times and the worst of times.) In America in the 1950s and 1960s, homosexuals faced far greater legal and social moral hostility than the Warsaw Pact allies. Facing all kinds of discrimination, homosexuals can only narrow their circle of activity as much as possible. There were some sporadic activities at that time, but it was just a non-confrontational effort to...

Ninety-nine to one: self-identification

All being mean to others is self-loathing, and a subconscious rejection of this disgust to gain a seeming inner peace and self-esteem.

There are nine characters and nine personalities, but none of them can get around a common motif: the self-identification of comrades. Different personalities are just different manifestations of the same problem.

Although the development of the plot seems to be a bit abrupt (for example, I can't...

identify

First of all, I agree that there are three groups here. The three characters, HANK LARRY DONALD, fully identify with their homosexuality, but each person has a different attitude towards sex.

Find a lover and insist on a 1-on-1 life, and then propose ThreeSome in order to satisfy the other party (so at least he can be with his lover), Donald is the person who can think clearly, the attitude of...

A classic in gay film history. The stage play adaptation, the characters' emotions, and the meaning of the lines are all worth chewing. The color changes in the front and back of the movie are obvious. The front is outdoors, the weather is just right, and the joy at the birthday party will not stop. Shoot the free faces of the boys and watch them go wild Playing jokes, joking, and talking about love makes people feel the enthusiasm and excitement that this group usually experiences in love. In...

A story that seems so lifelike and so bland is actually very difficult to write. It is so easy to draw ghosts and difficult to draw people. The closer things are to life, the more superb scripting and acting skills are needed to make the story interesting and not distorted. Here The creators of the film are excellent in several respects. Such a movie from nearly 50 years ago is completely outdated now, and it still makes people feel empathy, and even some topics are still very advanced (such as...
