About the 3 Million Bestseller - A Prequel to "On the Road"
The camera focuses on Columbia University in 1944, where student Alan Ginsburg (Daniel Radcliffe) meets William S. Barrows and Jack through Lucian Carr (Dane DeHaan). Kerouac.
Here, insert a sentence. Yes, Kerouac here is the author of "On the Road" that everyone is familiar with. Since its publication in 1957, this best-selling novel has been widely disseminated, and even in the special period of our country in the 1960s and 1970s, it was widely circulated in the form of manuscripts, affecting a considerable number of people.
Likewise, the book kicked off the American "Beat Generation" appellation. In the McKinsey era, a society full of high pressure and restraint created a group of deviant young people, seeking the ultimate liberation in alcohol, sex, music, and Zen Buddhism, and reversing all the orthodox world and human order.
These situations are the background information of the movie "Kill Your Love" to be introduced today. Directed by John Crockidas and starring Daniel Radcliffe, Dane DeHaan, and Jack Huston, the film is based on real events and was released in North America on October 18, 2013.
As mentioned above, the four young people started the "New Horizons" cultural movement because of like-mindedness, and then fell apart due to a murder case and dispersed.
We can even say without exaggeration that if there is no story of "Kill Your Love", there will be no "On the Road" that later topped the best-seller list in North America and remains very popular.
At first glance, is it to seek stimulation, or is true love invincible?
There is a saying that the public's discussion of homosexuality, or the display of homosexual orientation in text and film, makes more and more teenagers become sexual minorities.
Teens seem to be increasingly having same-sex episodes.
However, is this really the case? Let's look at a set of data, namely "Comparison of Sexual Orientation between Teenagers and Adults (%)", as shown in the following table:
It is not difficult to find from the table that there is a certain percentage of same-sex orientation among adolescents and adults. It is worth noting that in the dimension of "psychologically homosexual tendencies", the proportion of minors is as high as 13.6%, and after adulthood, there is no data.
For homosexuality, two levels of conditions need to be met, one is the physical need to desire orgasm, and the other is the psychological need to desire to live together.
These two conditions are indispensable, in order to be judged as homosexual. Otherwise, it is difficult to define homosexuality simply by pursuing sexual satisfaction and stimulation without a strong desire to live together.
Looking back at the table data, among the youth group, bold pursuit of exploration and trying new things are the characteristics of this stage, including the same sex. But, not necessarily love, or love.
The protagonist in the film also has bold and diverse attempts in sexual matters, which is not only a sacrifice to youth, but also a cognition of the world. In the film based on a true story, the people in the play did not come out of the closet later, but they were all happy in their heterosexual lives.
Growth may be a process of killing yourself with your own hands
At the end of the film, David is portrayed as a gay stalker, and Lucian Carr pleads guilty to first-degree manslaughter, serving 18 months in a juvenile detention center.
In those sapphire blue eyes, there is the most beautiful blue for the green years, for the young and mad, and for the past. Looking at this blue, it was like taking a sip of a margarita, with the bitterness of agave, the sourness of lemon, and the saltiness of kosher salt, talking to comfort the unworldly age.
He later became an editor for United Press International until his death in 2005. In his life, he was married twice and had three children. In the second half of my life, I have nothing to do with the same sex, as if everything disappeared with the prison life.
William S. Barrows left his family to live a life of sin in New York and recorded his daily life in "Junkies" and "Naked Lunches" as a confession to the past.
Jack Kerouac, who we are very familiar with, also chose to get married, moved to Michigan to live, recalled the past, and wrote the long journey of "On the Road" for youth.
Youth may be used for trial and error and early adopters. Otherwise, when I am getting old, I find that there is nothing to talk about in the past. Isn't this life too disappointing?
However, growing up is a process of killing one's own youth with one's own hands. Among them, in youth, the yearning for the same sex, and the restless throbbing of the heart.
Or from a certain point of view, we are all born "gay", we will pay attention to the same sex when we are young, compare the size, simulate behavior, eat and sleep together, etc.
Gradually growing up, drifting away in the same-sex world, looking for the rib that I left behind, returning to the story of Adam and Eve, enjoying the joy of the forbidden fruit, thinking that this is the love I want.
END.
