The film shown at the 2019 Beijing Film Festival was watched in the giant screen cinema of the Science and Technology Museum.
When I saw the scene in the restaurant at the beginning, I felt that this gorgeous style was like Monet's painting. Then came Visconti. Although I haven't seen his films, I know a little about his style. Then I remembered the name starting with V that I couldn't spell in the opening subtitles, and I was sure that he was right. Then I feel like I'm a jerk! Then no longer sleepy. Hahaha. After all, it was half past one in the afternoon. After all, the little brother on the left slept soundly as soon as he got up.
The storyline made me have to compare it to call me by your name again, and of course the latter won. Because the male protagonist of this film is not a handsome guy, and there are a few small expressions that make people feel a little wretched, and the film did not create the sweet taste of first love.
This film is even more bitter, and the ending is not mentioned. He didn't say a word to his beloved during the whole process, and even he didn't like the smile that the little boy had to others. Maybe it was his own YY. The hero's love is too humble. This humility comes from the intolerance of ethics and from the differences between the two sides. It also proves once again that people have an innate desire for beauty. Maybe the artist even more so.
After the show, I heard someone say that "European people's feelings are really incomprehensible", I actually can quite understand the mood of the male protagonist. It's the kind of humility mentioned above. If he was as tall and handsome as Oliver, the story certainly wouldn't be like this.
Very delicate, nice.
