      Sexual flow is natural and true

      In 2014's "New Girlfriend", the temperament flow is natural and real, and the couple's best friends, lace and rotten girls are together, and there are no social regulations. Ou Rong has been focusing on LGBT for 20 years, essentially the same pattern, switching between gender identity and inner focus. "Summer Dress" in 1996 and "Drywood Fire" in 2000 have gone a long way. Brave cross-dressing is a common element. Men may change into women in their hearts when they change into women's clothes....

      Is Claire Bisexual or?

      When she sees Claire and Virginia go to the hotel and Claire realizes that Virginia is male, she resists. So is he resisting being male or is David being Laura's husband? But Claire's relationship with her husband feels pretty normal. Was it because Claire couldn't accept losing Laura, saw Virginia as a replacement or fell in love with Virginia or David? I'm already befuddled. . . . . . Is Claire's love for Laura just friendliness or love? Hmm~ Claire doesn't fully show her feminine beauty in...

      kneel

      Give your knees! Ou Rong has always been committed to all kinds of cross-border. Although the old three views were demolished and reorganized by a similar structure and theme 8 years ago, I was still amazed and moved when I saw this film. What is the gender of the soul? Ou Rong removed the barriers of gender and sexuality, and let all the so-called homosexuality and heterosexuality and other boring divisions and definitions dissolve and disintegrate in these 107 minutes. The harmonious scene...

      April 10, 2016

      The director of "Into the House", another play by Ou Rong. But this one feels a little confusing. Reminds me of Andrew Nicole.

      Both of them are directors with more erratic and beautiful styles and strong personalities (Andrew is better). I don't like erratic things unless it's beautiful, or it triggers someone's thinking, and things that don't make sense are a little annoying to me. Thinking about this kind of thing is very personal, so if you can't capture the thinking points of most...

      Once upon a time

      After watching the movie, the deepest impression was that Claire refused to continue to communicate with Virginie in the kitchen. After the two returned to their previous lives, the movie portrayed Claire's daily life. She eats breakfast with her husband, she buys groceries in the supermarket alone, she sits at her desk and works. A few simple shots showed Claire's loneliness to the fullest. Her eyes were full of helplessness and anticipation, which was distressing. Behind the seemingly...

      Ou Rong is similar to Almodovar this time, no matter how curious the story is in their hands, they can easily return to the essence of...

      Boys came out of cabbage, girls came out of flowers, and I...was born in cauliflower. Ou Rong shows all the elements of LGBT, the front and back are very smooth and not chaotic, from the perspective of the heroine, from the self-identification of Zhou Shou, the narrative is so peaceful that there is an illusion that the world's attitude towards this is normal. The second male is so handsome and miserable, every time I appear, my whole body is screaming! I like the opening of the final fairy...

    Evaluation action

    The seemingly mediocre title and mediocre story of the film have the ups and downs and the bloody effects. The reason is that the sexual orientation of each character in it is so casual, neither homosexual nor heterosexual, they can switch between various sexual orientations freely. The random permutation and combination of two men and two women, various gods spread out so that the audience collectively watched the circle. (Sohu...
