From the chat between the male protagonist and female friends, we can see that the male protagonist was also a cheerful and interesting person before. But the gloomy weather and rough life made our male protagonist gradually become gloomy and rough. Until one day he met a little brother from Romania. In his early 20s, facing the sudden love, he seemed a little helpless and a little dizzy. Made a ridiculous mistake, and I don't think it's completely unforgivable. So it is reasonable for the little brother to forgive him in the end.
The Romanian brother, who has left his hometown to work as a part-time worker, may not be much older than the male protagonist, but his experience and experience are much richer than that of the male protagonist. To a certain extent, it replaces the mother role that the male protagonist has been missing since childhood, loving him meticulously, licking his wounds, cooking for him, and even helping him taste the food. Some people say that this character is too perfect, but this is a semi-autobiographical work, maybe the director's lover is so perfect in his eyes.
It is difficult to avoid using Brokeback Mountain to compare this film. Both have their own advantages. Personally, I think this film is better in details, such as the plot of the cup noodles, the touching of fingers, etc. I believe it is because the director has personal experience. But Brokeback Mountain is a bit more sophisticated in terms of characterization and the creation of that passionate atmosphere.
Some people say that the HE of this film is to make up for the regret of Brokeback Mountain. But I don't think so. After all, time and space are different. From the closed mainland of the United States in the middle of the last century, it came to the modern corrupt country. Men's love is no longer a big deal. If you have to press a BE to make people cry, it will appear contrived.
The acting skills of the two male protagonists are also quite outstanding. The British brother, there is not much introduction to him on the Internet. I don't know if he is a true actor. If not, then he can perform to such a degree at such a young age. It's really amazing, and the future is immeasurable. We have produced so many small fresh meat recently, and some of them are also from professional classes. Why isn't this kind of acting? The role of the Romanian brother is relatively small. But the details and eyes are on point. Implicit performance is also invaluable.
The film contains a lot of information, about the development and operation of traditional farms, the issue of immigration, the distress of young people in agricultural towns and so on. But the director didn't offer any answers, just presented a real picture of rural life in modern Europe to the audience.
