It's just a superficial feeling in the form of film reviews~

Glen has more radical same-sex rights ideology than Russel, he thinks Americans will take to the streets to fight for rights, while they (British people) will only promiscuous on grinders. But I think it's because Glen's heart is more fragile than Russel, so he wants to "get ahead" rather than be reconciled to obscurity. Glen has experienced cheating, being rejected by roommates after finding out about his sexuality, and being isolated by "friends" at school. And that's something Russel hasn't experienced. So Glen is more eager to hold hands, hug and kiss openly in a heterosexual-dominated society. But what about Glen arguing with a straight man in a straight bar the day before he left, is it really necessary in real life? I don't think it's necessary, because straight doesn't need to accept Homosexual, and Homosexual doesn't need to seek approval from others, just shine alone. Although Russel thinks it is very difficult to live alone and shine alone. Glen and Russel have only been together for a weekend, and their affection for each other is largely related to passion. I am afraid that Russel and Glen will go to the United States at the end, because I am afraid that Glen and Russel will become strangers after the passion fades, okay In the movie, Russel did not leave, and Glen did not stay. I think this is a good ending, and we can recall the good time together. The movie has a lot of independent and meaningful dialogues. These dialogues themselves are the value of this movie. There are not many stories. Although the occasional exciting scene is still very refreshing to watch, it is a dull but valuable dialogue. More worth our while. Talks about Homosexual reluctance to talk about sex in public, talk about same-sex rights, talk about cheating on their parents, etc., are all very true. Of course, I personally don't like this style of movies very much. It's like a trilogy. Although it's really good, it's still a little boring. But there's no denying that it's still a good movie.

Weekend quotes

  • Glen: Well, you know what it's like when you first sleep with someone you don't know?

    Russell: Yes.

    Glen: It's... you, like, become this blank canvas and it gives you an opportunity to project onto that canvas who you want to be. That's what's interesting because everybody does that.

    Russell: So do you think that I did it?

    Glen: Course you did. Well, what happens is while you're projecting who you want to be... this gap opens up between who you want to be and who you really are. And in that gap, it shows you what's stopping you becoming who you want to be.

  • Glen: Do you ever think about finding your parents?

    Russell: No, not really.

    Glen: Why not?

    Russell: I don't really see the point. You know, I don't think it would change anything.

    Glen: Why don't I pretend to be your dad and you can come out to me?

    Russell: [laughs] That is SO weird.

    Glen: Just ignore the fact we just had sex.

    Russell: I don't think I can. Guess I'll try. Ok.

    [looks Glen in the eye]

    Russell: Dad? I got something I need to tell you.

    Glen: [pretending to be Russell's dad] What's that?

    Russell: I'm gay.

    Glen: [pretends to think] Hmm.

    Russell: I like guys, not girls.

    Glen: [breathes out slowly] Well. You know what, son. It doesn't matter to me. I love you just the same. And guess what?

    Russell: What?

    Glen: I couldn't be more proud of you than if you were the first man on the moon.
