It’s not too late to store the courage and love of a lifetime, and be yourself for the last time.

Some commentators said that the emotional line of the hero and heroine was a bit hypocritical, and admitted that there was some on the girl side. But I have to admire MIKE MILLS, as a novice in the film industry, he still has thoughts and discussions on character creation.

First of all, when this dad was young, he might have been under various pressures, social and personal, and his Jewish wife impressed him with a promise, "You are gay, but it doesn’t matter, I will change you", this woman In her whole life, she still failed to help him, and instead wronged herself, but she was full of love and courage. At least she took on her own huge unhappiness.

In fact, many of his son’s characters correspond to his father. What his father needs to look for is something completely different from himself, young, passionate, courageous, and cheerful. No matter from his age, his father needs sunshine. He wants the love of a man, because he spends most of his life with a woman he doesn’t love; his son grew up with a depressed and sensitive mother. He likes to be with someone who is like a mother. The character of this French girl is similar to himself. Similar; he is as optimistic that love can give each other everything he needs, but in fact the family has told him that in many cases, love does not have that much power. Although the film is over and the young men and women are together again, is their love prospects clear again? This is just the beginning. . .

Regarding homosexuality, the old father's boyfriend has completely shaped a true homosexual mentality from the perspective of human nature. At the party, in the face of his lover, they bravely expressed and fanatically enjoyed the "legal rights" of homosexuality, but in essence, some people, most of them, care about the eyes of others, and expect to be treated fairly and touched by ordinary people. Touch and hug. This is why the old father agreed to marry the opposite sex and live an ordinary life.

Viewed in tandem, this movie is a success. His petty bourgeoisie complex, strong personal plot, details of self-experience, exploration of human nature, exploration of each unique individual in this world, for every young person Say, knowing is just the beginning. Before everything is over, it’s not too late to realize that, like an old father, I have stored my life’s courage and love, and be true myself for the last time.

    It was the first time I saw a movie that showed homosexuality so "beautiful", it was real, plain and warm. We are beginners every day when it comes to gay life, when it comes to accepting love, when it comes to our lives.
