The movie spends a lot of space describing unspeakable love, which originated from the unspeakable love of Plato's time, referring to the love of the old for the young. The old have wisdom, the young have energy and hope for life, and their union makes life complete.
The protagonists of the movie are Wilde and his lover Percy, so before seeing the movie, I would have rightly assumed that the movie was about Wilde and Percy's Platonic love. But after watching it, I must say this, the film is about Wilde's Platonic love for Percy. The difference in one word is all because Posey can't make it to the table at all.
Wilde and Percy, Wilde is in love with Percy, and this love even transcends the flesh. But Percy was like a child, all he wanted in Wilde was endless shelter and pampering. Wilde got his energy from Percy, but Percy didn't learn a little wisdom from Wilde, didn't grow up, and was always a selfish child.
Wilde loves Percy's beauty and youth, and it is more appropriate for Jude Law to interpret beauty at that time. Unfortunately, the beauty of youth lies in growth and change. If a young man refuses to grow, his soul will be reunited with an old soul. What's the difference?
Percy knew his indifference to Wilde, but he refused to let go, clinging to him in the division and reconciliation, eating away at him, and finally dragging him down.
So I hate Percy, he's a hollow china doll.
