      weekend time

      43 I stayed up late and finished it. How should I put it, at first I thought it was because Be was a little scared, but now I feel completely OK. There is no major conflict. It's only two years apart, and it's not that I haven't come back for two days. Even Russel himself thinks it's nothing at all, but it feels a little reluctant to meet the eyes, but it's not that far. This feeling is really saying no. I don't know what to do, love is an ethereal thing anyway, and I don't want to speculate...

      Week end

      I just watched The Weekend Maybe most of my attention is on Russell's compromise. He compromises too much because of his sexual orientation. He knows how to forbear some relationships. Too much restraint is a rational act. How much he wants to keep him but he doesn't say a word. Let him go, maybe as short and worthless as everything I've ever experienced, and I'm back to the dull life I used to have to deal with boredom and even boredom, no waves, and go to the bar like a blank piece of...

      Andrew Haigh Film Review and Narrative----N

      I once wrote some film and television thoughts, whether on Weibo, WeChat or my own heart. More or less, I feel like I'm still in a "maybe a movie can change fate" age. So, if I want to watch a movie, I will work hard and watch it seriously, to understand it, and to ponder what mood, concept, or even thought this movie is going to convey to us. I personally don't have any fuss about the genre of the movie. It can be meaty or vegetarian, sweet or bitter, ugly or beautiful is my label for all...

      How long does true love last

      After watching "Weekend Time", I was very melancholy and very sentimental. There is no doubt that this is a low-budget movie, most of the scenes in Russell's house, the main characters are Russell and Glen. The entire film begins with Russell and Glen's dialogue, including two sex scenes. In such a simple plot, many issues are discussed, such as coming out of the closet, boyfriend, cheating, falling in love, getting married and so on.
              Both Russell and Glen recorded their...

      48 hours of love

      The top 5 of the same movie in my heart, the tone is comfortable, the story is smooth, and the feelings are delicate. Those who are not used to the slow rhythm may not like it, but in my opinion, this is an advantage. Extra credit for the ending song. How much love can you have in two days? Probably after we separated, I would occasionally imagine if we would be together if we continued to walk, I would stand in front of the window and listen to the recording of the first meeting I recalled...
