I watched Kingdom of God over and over at least ten times, until I could remember every frame of some clips and replay them in my head with my eyes closed. It was as if I closed my eyes and I was in Yorkshire, a country as beautiful as God's. The film uses a contrast method to show the warming of the two's emotions and the growth of J. For example, when riding a motorcycle down the mountain, G hugged J with a smile. The audience first smiled knowingly, and then suddenly remembered that these two were obviously strangers when they went up the mountain. The spark of love has quietly ignited, and the sweetness floods into my heart again, which is wonderful! In addition to the contrast of the plot, there is also the contrast of the times. The setting of the film "Going up the mountain and herding sheep and mutual affection" is quite similar to that of "Brokeback Mountain", but it has a completely opposite ending. In the world of light and shadow, homosexuality was persecuted in the 1960s; in 2014, two homosexuals kissed in the brightest part of the factory. In the real world, in 2005, due to social pressure, the Oscar for Best Picture was not awarded to "Brokeback Mountain"; in 2017, "Land of God" won the best British independent film. Jake Gyllenhaal said, "One of the reasons I'm proud of Brokeback Mountain is because I've seen society change over the past decade." I think a more tolerant society in turn provides more material for artistic creation, Prince And the prince can finally live happily together. To quote a short comment, this is the testimony of "the era has changed from winter to summer". The blank space in the film is reflected in both the sound effects and the plot. Blank sound effects means that there are not many lines and almost no music to add to the atmosphere. The two male protagonists don't express themselves very much in words. Even if they are talking, they are convoluted and subtle, and they are more expressive. This is an important reason that attracts me to watch it repeatedly. The eyes can convey the meaning is too rich, too graceful. I always speculate on the psychological activities of the two of them when they are not speaking; I always guess how many sweet words there are after the two of them say their lines, and I do not dare to speak for fear of not getting a response. Every time I have new ideas. So I always want to watch it again, trying to dig out the traces of affection behind the eyes and words. Of course, the brilliant presentation of the final effect also benefits from the sparkling performances of the two actors. With few lines and just a piece of background music, the film won the Best Sound Effects Award for British Independent Film that year, which is enough to prove the charm of blank space. As for the plot, some viewers think the story is incoherent and too jumpy, but I think it is precisely these lacks that leave a lot of room for imagination. In terms of rationality, first of all, it should be considered from the corner of controlling the length of the movie. Secondly, farm life is relatively dull (although I would love to watch it), and taking too many shots can easily lead to procrastination and affect the rhythm. In terms of superiority, J's first kiss is about overcoming resistance, exploring, and discovering a new way of life; the second kiss is about eagerness, miss and enjoyment. At first glance, it feels abrupt, but if you think about it carefully, this is obviously not the first and second time, but the first and several times! I couldn't help but imagine how many times the two shared kisses and spent a wonderful time together outside the flock, beside the bonfire, in the icy cold wind, and in the not-so-warm stone house. Another example is after the two reconcile and before getting in the car, will J say "come home with me"? Will G laugh silently, as before? How will you wipe away tears for J? Do you think "I really can't do anything about you"? It is these imaginations that make me immersed in the story for a long time after the end of the play and do not want to wake up. Even when I'm in a daze, before I fall asleep, I fill in the blanks with my imagination, complete the story and become my own version. Excellent works will not be forgotten by the audience after the end of the play. On the contrary, they will be remembered again and again and will last forever. "Kingdom of God" is my favorite movie, and I'm glad that I recorded my feelings logically and expressed appreciation.
