If calling me by your name deliberately ignores the love of two same-sex lovers in a big environment, then 120 BPM is just the opposite. It talks about AIDS, homosexuality, and the external environment and struggle that homosexuals face. The French have always gone a long way in social avant-garde movements.
I've only watched 120 BPM once (the emotion it conveys is so intense and heartbreaking), and I've watched Call Me By Your Name countless times.
But I still expect more people to see 120 BPM, because no one can deny that 120 BPM is trying to show gays and the plight they face.
The whole film is violent and passionate.
As the protagonist Sean, impressive.
There have been many excellent reviews of the film's depth, so in this post I'm mainly talking about the dilemmas faced by gays and lesbians that I saw in the film.
Homophobic pressure
There is a scene in the play where Sean and Nathan go to school together to distribute flyers for the "Condoms on campus" campaign, which was originally intended to prevent AIDS, because Sean was infected with HIV because he did not wear a condom. A female student made a mockery of homosexuality. Sean responded with a kiss in the face.
All fear may come from not understanding, but after understanding it, I still find it difficult to accept. My attitude is that this is not homophobia. What we are looking for is diversity when discussing fear . If we want someone to accept homosexuality, then we must also Allowing someone to dislike homosexuality is like being born with a dislike of pineapple, and it should be allowed.
Therefore, the homophobia mentioned here refers to physical harm and verbal harm to the homosexual group after never knowing it or knowing it.
drug control
The first scene of Shawn's civic group was to organize everyone to protest with blood packs at pharmaceutical companies, hoping that they could speed up the research and development of new drugs instead of controlling the number of drug distributions for commercial reasons.
For pharmaceutical companies, profit is the most important, but for AIDS patients, these drugs are the last straw.
Of course, pharmaceutical companies need to make profits, but in many cases, social responsibilities also need to be undertaken.
It has to be mentioned here that the government should also bear the corresponding responsibilities, and cannot put all the responsibilities on the pharmaceutical companies.
AIDS defines them?
Sean told Nathan that the disease defined me, I didn't have a job, and my mother rented a small apartment for it. Although under normal circumstances, everyone knows that AIDS is not transmitted through normal physical contact, the public is still panicking about it. It's a heartbreaking fact that having AIDS means being socially outcast.
We often talk about de-stigmatizing mental illness and being tolerant of homosexuality, but no one ever talks about justifying AIDS.
AIDS is just a disease, like cancer.
If cancer cannot define a person, AIDS cannot define a person.
That's what I saw in the film about the difficulties they faced. The saddest scene in the film was when Sean died, and her mother helped him change into clean clothes when he was stiff.
The scene is presented in an extremely restrained manner, yet deeply emotionally charged.
This is also an important reason why I can't afford to click on this video again.
Sean was a fighter, and then he died, that's all.
