Philadelphia

From the words Andrew danced to the music after the gay party to the end of the movie is the best part of the movie, suddenly so many kinds of love come together, but very logically - Andrew on Hope Love, love for life, love for his daughter after Miller returned home, love for his wife, love for his career as shown by Andrew in court, love for his friends in the hospital after the trial, love for his family, and finally before Andrew's death Homosexual love...
Since there are so many kinds of love, why is love between two men anti-natural and anti-ethical?
No one knows what is the greatest thing in the objective universe, but no matter how far the exploration of the universe and the material world goes, as long as the world is viewed through human eyes, the most fundamental thing - human nature can never be ruled out. .
Therefore, no matter how rationality and science develop, the world in the eyes of people has always been modified by human nature (prejudice, greed, vanity, obsession, arrogance...). In the human world, love is the greatest.
Love is an emotion, and it's just an emotion, it doesn't matter what kind of receptor you love, whether it's flowers or grass, blue sky or white clouds, machinery or art, and of course, man or woman. No matter what you love, love is love.
Therefore, it is undoubtedly foolish to constrain the greatest thing in human nature with some seemingly objective laws, existence, nature or Darwinism. The oldest wisdom in the world is talking about excavating your own self. Your self is a more potential and higher thing than the entire outer universe. Love is the limit of this higher thing. Nietzsche said that man exists to create a greater man (superman). Yes, human beings have been surpassing their ancestors for thousands of years, but love, I am afraid, will never be surpassed.

    You can't watch a movie like this, you cry every time you watch it. For me, it's a great movie. and I fell in love with Maria Callas and Bruce Springsteen

    Andrew Beckett: [from the witness stand] I... many things... uh... uh... What I love the most about the law?

    Joe Miller: Yeah.

    Andrew Beckett: It's that every now and again - not often, but occasionally - you get to be a part of justice being done. That really is quite a thrill when that happens.
