First of all, a wordy sentence, the quality of the gay movies I watched recently are all good, and this one for boys in the history department is even more excellent. The three teachers in the film have different views and understandings of history and culture to some extent, which can represent the collision between different views in the study of literature and history, and the fireworks produced are actually very exciting. I like to see people's opinions on a question. The process of holding different views and arguing.
The glasses teacher told the students how to learn how to take exams, and the fat teacher taught the students how to feel the culture. In fact, this question is also a very good topic in China, quality education vs exam-oriented education, haha, the good thing is that this is a group of excellent teenagers, In the process of their studies, they may have realized the best balance point, and finally achieved success. The short stories about students or teachers interspersed in the film are also the essence of this film. In fact, when it comes to this, this film is not strictly a gay film, although it adopts gay elements, but in fact the film Almost all aspects of love in China are very subtle, not even a gay kiss.


PS: Do high school students in the UK need to have such an ability to recognize and analyze events? What will our high school students do?

PS2: Our history class is purely cramming.
