If homosexuality was acceptable in the 1930s and 1940s, if it was not considered a pathological condition in universal values, and there was no need to fix it, the 44-year marriage would not have happened in the first place.
If there is no marriage in the first place, the father does not need to suppress his nature for nearly half a century, and he almost became a "theoretical gay" all his life. Oliver used to regard his parents as his lover's role-model, but he was heartbroken by the death of his mother, but as a result, his father came out of the closet again. So he is depressed, can't get along with people, and doesn't know how to face love.
All people are beginners in every sense.
The root cause of this situation is the changing times.
The whole film is discussing the issue of homosexuality and society, but this is not a gay movie, it is a movie that discusses the psychological state of the whole crowd. The gay element is there, neither avoided or deliberately avoided. protrude. It's not that they want to fight for rights and complain about persecution, they just want to talk about what happened in that era and what harm they caused. Some people have made their own choices, and these choices have affected some people. And the relationship between people will develop in its own direction. Maybe the previous situation was not satisfactory, but the big era is developing in a good direction. People will heal themselves when they are injured. It gets better. This is the most moving part of the film.
