Although I'm not a complete slut, I've always had an unusual interest in same-sex topics. In addition to most of the curiosity, there is also a lot of incredible subtlety in it. I have always been curious about what it would be like to find the person you fell in love with at first sight in the vast sea of ​​​​people, and he was of the same sex.

So far, my favorite same-sex novel is Sarah Waters' Licking the Velvet. Not only is the storyline particularly bizarre, but she describes the psychological changes of a woman in various relationships. It has always been said that the original party insists that the text of the book is much more delicate than the dynamic of the film and television. However, after watching Carol, I feel that there is some demeanor, there is a kind of moving, I really need to look at each other in the flowing picture, Even a sigh can penetrate deeply and deeply into your heart. In Carol and Therese's face-to-face, patience, desire, tolerance, and possession are all intertwined. At first I didn't know where that love at first sight came from, but Therese said, "Can boys love boys?" This kind of love should be the same as everyone else, you just fall in love with someone suddenly, no matter whether the other party is a man or a woman, just because that feeling is like loving yourself...". Is it because they saw their own through the eyes of the other party, so this feeling makes each other lose their senses, lose their ego, and throw them into the whirlpool of love completely uncontrollably?

Although the topic involves same-sex issues, the actor also chose Queen Kate, which is undoubtedly a topical movie and enough gimmicks to attract enough. But really can't cover up the movie itself, as a presentation method, it is also very successful! The retro scene layout, characters' clothing, and detailed props all add to the delicate texture of the film itself. What I especially like is that many, many shots are taken from corners and corners, or from the car window or through the glass, or through the lens of obstacles, with the characters who have been whispering and approaching the conversation of the whisperer, not only There is a sense of abstinence and the kind of voyeurism, all kinds of things indicate that the relationship is not accepted at the beginning, not open, unwilling to disclose; and this kind of voyeuristic taste is even more in the climax of carol. It was found that they were being monitored and eavesdropped and pushed to the extreme... And this constant "secret" peeping and monitoring gave Carol and Therese a calm look at each other in the large meeting room full of people, bright, open, and not concealed at all. , to create a more evocative effect, no need for language or dialogue, and there are thousands of words in the eyes.

Carol's role in choosing Queen Kate is really correct, full of charm and a touch of aggression. The moment she is stared at, it can really feel top-heavy and out of focus. Especially on New Year's Eve at the hotel, when Carol and Therese started kissing and laying in bed with all kinds of passion and caress, although full of eroticism, it was extremely beautiful. Reminds me of a sentence I read on the Internet before, our girls are so beautiful, girls will fall in love with girls. The image of two female bodies entangled together gives the visual ice cream 100 times stronger than the image of men and women.

You say, in the vast sea of ​​​​people, how many people can destroy their lives at first sight? How many people can really meet the person who belongs to them? Now we also talk about same-sex topics, because same-sex is still a minority, we subconsciously see her as a small category. But in fact, the chances of finding true love are very small, and it would be sad to limit gender. If you can see your own shadow in the other person and smell your own taste, what is the relationship between the same sex and the opposite sex? How much I envy, whether it's carol or therese, to be able to experience this touching moment in my lifetime, that breathtaking look at each other, how precious and unattainable. Not only a simple love, but also because of this kind of love and this relationship, it is very moving to let oneself know more clearly about oneself, find oneself and face the changes of the facts.

    After such a long and endless wait, it is difficult to objectively evaluate this film. The only thing I can say is that it's one of the few movies in recent years that I've been looking forward to seeing and still feel that the wait is worth the wait. Rooney Jr's acting gets you into Therese the whole way. And the most heartbreaking scene is when Carol negotiates custody with her ex-husband.

    Such a delicate and delicate female emotional film! There are only two retro girls with peerless amorous feelings in the shrewd pattern. Love is full of charm! Concise and profound! Beautiful and sad! Melancholy but also intoxicated! [Originally came for the Queen, but was stunned by Rooney! Oscar has no taste, bah!
