Gay movies are mostly about the love, hate, anger and madness between men, but the special of this film is that when you look back and taste the performance of Colin Firth's forbearance, there is always a secret sadness that presses into your chest.

It's been popular recently that every man has a crook in his heart before he meets true love? I don't dare to recall the old things, I only know that when we are at our age, everyone has a special place in the heart, reserved for a special person, so that we can make excuses for being crazy, lost or even lost, but the feelings at that time were not. There will always be helpless flowers to fall, and we can only lament such fate.

So, whenever we want to "completely, completely, and forever forget the past," the youthful appearance of being together at that time always comes to mind: talking about nothingness, making simple eye contact, and laughing and crying. ..

back to the movies.

The lover is gone, Colin Firth wakes up from the dream, the world is different.

From this, the film takes us into his personal world: when colin firth received bad news, he ran wild in the rainy night and cried bitterly. Then end it all.

This day, it seems no different, the children of the neighbors are still happily frolic, and the school is still in the same tone. It's just that jimmy, who was so jealous and refused to change records, is gone forever.

The temperament of the film changes constantly with the tone of the lens and with the fluctuations in the inner world of the characters. And in Colin Firth's calm gaze and a few faint tears, this huge sadness has been passed to our hearts.

In addition to the colors, the film uses flashbacks to briefly explain the feelings of the two people: whether it is the kiss in the courtyard that they want to refuse or welcome, or the naked conversation under the scorching sun; whether it is the two people sitting on the sofa reading, It's still the dark feeling of the bar in the rainy night. These fragments are deeply sad and silent, because these representative memories are not fiery and hard to remember, but so relaxed and ordinary, so more sincere, and also More and more sadness.

And the bridge that sublimates the theme of the film appears at the end. At the end, facing the sleeping kenny, Colin Firth confessed with emotion: In my life, there were some enlightening moments, in that brief moment, silence drowned everything, so that I could stop thinking but feel , the world becomes clear and clear, as if everything has returned to its original place.

Rigorous university professors can finally experience the world emotionally, rather than meticulous "answers". This is the power of a beautiful relationship. Even if it is only a few seconds of clarity, even if it is only a short-lived new life, please remember it, because of love.

    Although the actors' performances and the tone of the film are good, they still lack a little appeal. And because the director is a person in the fashion industry, I always feel that he has trained the actors so that they are not acting as if they are on the catwalk. ...

A Single Man quotes

  • George: There's no such thing as old anymore. The other day, one of my students called me a senior citizen.

    Charley: I wouldn't mind if old didn't exist. But I'm not sure that senior is what I'm aiming for, either.

  • George: It's all becoming so bland. That's not why I came to America. It's like a complete breakdown of culture and manners.

    Charley: The young ones have no manners. The other day at the car wash, a young man looked me up and down and asked me if I was a natural blonde.

    George: What did you say?

    Charley: I looked him straight in the eye and said, "Let's just say, if I stood on my head, I would be a natural brunette with lovely breath."
