      "Love, Simplicity": How to Win with Little Fresh Emotions

      After watching so many movies, I slowly realized my preferences. Either it is a film with deep connotation, like Kubrick; or it has a unique style like Godard; or it has a gentle and delicate emotion, like Ozu. Many masterpieces are the perfect combination of these three. Naturally, I fell completely and I couldn't help but love.

      Love is nothing but condoms; to put it simply, you use not water soluble

      You know, condoms are the crystal slipper of our generation. Put it on when you meet a stranger. You dance all night and then you throw it away. Condoms, I mean. —From Fight Club.
      Life is just a piece of 1024 water-soluble condoms. If you like it, you can enjoy it, and if you don't like it, you can also wear it for maintenance. Love is the turbid liquid in the condom after passion, and it can kill thousands of children and grandchildren in one shot. (In order to survive, I had to add a...

      Reason for love

      In recent years, the number of gay-themed films has increased, and this film has created a sense of warmth and freshness. As a rotten girl in an atypical sense, this subject matter in itself is enough to arouse my interest, and more importantly, it is not easy for a film of such a clear water to arouse my emotions.

      In fact, the film does not deliberately render the gay plot I love, nor is it entangled in the deviation of sexual orientation, but only tells a simple love. People have...

      Some teenage pokes

      1 Kiss the glass while taking a bath, and try to get rid of the first kiss with curious and gentle touches.

      2 The two secretly went out to watch the lunar eclipse at night. Leo was standing behind the bicycle, blowing the cool and comfortable wind on a summer night. How fortunate for someone who has never experienced the joy of cycling. Someone takes you on an adventure, and you can put all your trust in him.

      3 The little curls kissed Leo in a fit of anger and rode a bicycle in...

      You are my good dream, everything will be better tomorrow

      Hahaha, I still sigh in a cliché that the feelings of a teenager are always poems. In a small base film, it can be so relaxed and happy without worrying about it, while the quality is good and the acting is good. Chewing mints, comfortable, cool and sweet, the rhythm is gentle but not boring, and the kisses are slow and leisurely, which is too comfortable to look at. The lust in the lens is also looming, like the warm light of a street lamp falling on the water in the dark night, sporadic,...

      It turns out that today's fate has already been decided by the history teacher and the transfer student. Now I can only hope that I will be taken away after crying blindly. Just looking at the poster stills, I really think "Flying Against the...

      7.5/10. Clean, pure, no big drama, just simple romance. Although there is a little procrastination in the bland, the bland is always my favorite. That last hand holding was so beautiful. The original sound is...

    Evaluation action

    Although the film is about gay love, the director did not regard the topic of sexual orientation and homosexuality as a "special" theme at all. This may have something to do with the director's identity as a gay person. In his eyes, this is just a normal love story, a blind boy holding hands with another boy, that's all. The little ambiguity between the two beautiful boys in the film is a mess of innocence and beauty. In contrast,...

      Leonardo: What's your level of laziness right now?

    • Karina: We're going to see the sunset.

      Leonardo: Speak for yourself. I'm not gonna see anything.

    • Gabriel: Why are you getting all up in MY face?

      Leonardo: Because everyone wants to control me and won't let me kiss anyone!
