love is an illusion

After watching "Wilde", I can't help but sigh.

The talented Wilde at the beginning has infinite scenery and is admired everywhere he goes. Although he is not beautiful, he has a suave charm. Unfortunately, he soon met his doomed Bosie.

Young Jude Law was beautiful, but not yet charming enough to be forgotten. I deeply dislike the character of Bosie, frivolous and selfish, and completely incapable of being highly educated. His cold growl at the seriously ill Wilde was heart-wrenching. He couldn't appreciate his so-called beauty at all, and he could only say that Wilde's bad luck had arrived, and he was fascinated.

In the end, it was Bosie's instigation that Wilde took the Marquis to court over his own strength, but it was himself who spoke generously in the court who was sent to prison. Comparing the love letter he wrote to Bosie two years earlier, and then reading the "Book from Prison" he wrote in the long nightmare of hell, the emotional contrast between the two is so poignant that it is too late to regret.

My favorite in the film is Robbie, who is gentle and affectionate, and never gives up from beginning to end. He awakens Wilde's same-sex love, and even though the romantic Wilde quickly turns away from love, he still waits silently by the side. Caring for him, reminding him, applauding him in court, hats off to him in the midst of a slobbering humiliation. When Bosie yelled at him "I'm the only person Oscar loves, and you're just one of his many boys!" He just smiled faintly. The corners of his lips are always tender, and his blue eyes are so bright, thousands of times more beautiful than the impetuous Bosie, he is the lily of the real lilies.

"I'm going to be with him when I'm out of prison, I'm going to give him everything," Bosie said, when in fact he abandoned him after just three months. A generation of talented people died of poverty at the age of 49. Robbie was still at his side when he died, burying him with his own hands and leaving a place for himself. After decades, they were finally buried together. So affectionate, so touching.

Throughout his life, Wilde missed the one worthy of his love, only to be sent to hell by his beloved. For those who aim for sensual pleasure, getting it or not getting it is indeed a tragedy.
