some small thoughts

A very good story about the self-contradiction and growth of coming out of the closet among American high school students. Because I heard the Strawberries & Cigarettes in the morning, I suddenly wanted to watch it. I think the better point is that this film does not set the protagonist's family background and environment. How miserable is it? On the contrary, the family is harmonious and I have a group of very good friends. Because I always felt that the author tried to describe the background and character of the protagonist in a previous domestic homosexual theme. It is easy to give people a feeling that homosexuality is generally caused by its acquired environment. Wouldn't a normal and happy family not have gay children? This is instead a disguised prejudice. A large part of the reason should be due to innateness, but maybe there are also reasons why I have not seen enough same-sex works. This film is pretty good. In terms of contradictions, I saw the girls in the film said that they were a little surprised when they were in the third year of high school. Chinese students of the same age are still much more immature, but if they are in the United States, it doesn't seem strange. I see them at this age. The confident and mature temperament and the freedom to rehearse musicals and hold parties is quite enviable, but I still feel bad about who Blue is, but I don't know how to deal with it and meet me in the muffin house. The boy who arrived at the stadium wanted to say nothing to Simon, but I thought Blue was him.

    The overall mediocre, there are a few refreshing highlights, the fantasy of dancing in LA, and the fantasy of every straight man and straight woman coming out of the closet is a bit interesting, if only the whole film could be so quirky

Love, Simon quotes

  • Ms. Albright: Don't "Hey, Ms. Albright" me. We're not friends. You're not going to braid my hair or paint my nails. Get your ass off the table now, you sweaty, hormonal virgins. You know what? You're about to be suspended for so long that by the time it's over, you're going to be the fat, bald, unhappily married, wildly mediocre nobodies you're destined to become.

    Spencer: You can't talk to us like that.

    Ms. Albright: Actually I can, 'cuz I just did. And you know why? Because you're just those two assholes who did that shitty thing in front of the whole school. And guess what? Nobody feels sorry for those assholes, especially me. Now walk. Mr. Worth's office. Now.

    Ms. Albright: [Grabbing speaker] Unh-uh. That's mine now. I'm'ma sell it, get my tubes tied.

  • Simon: You... actually, uh, I did want to talk to you guys about something.

    Emily: What is it?

    Simon: [stammering] Uh, well...

    Jack: Let me guess. You got somebody pregnant. No, you're pregnant.

    Simon: Yeah.

    Jack: I knew it!

    Simon: Yeah, I'm pregnant.

    Jack: I knew it. I mean, he's got that glow about him, babe.

    Simon: No, um...

    [struggles to get the words out]

    Simon: I'm gay.

    [Emily and Jack are both quiet]

    Emily: Honey...

    Simon: And I don't want you guys to think anything different. I'm still me...

    Emily: Of course you are, Simon.

    Jack: Yeah. So you're gay. Which one of your old girlfriends turned you? Was it the one with the big eyebrow or...

    Emily: Jack.

    Nora: Jesus Christ, dad, do you ever shut the hell up?

    Jack: I'm kidding.

    Nora: It's not funny!

    Jack: I'm kidding. Hey, Nora, open up your gift, please?
