In fact, I don’t like the first 30 minutes of the film (I can’t remember, maybe). The story starts with temptation. Chris is the man in the story. Sex is as common as a handshake. He lives next door one day. Entered 4 Mormons, one of whom was a preacher named Aaron attracted him, so he bet with his restaurant colleagues that he could seduce Aaron, a slightly narrow bet, which may be nothing to Chris, but he didn’t care at all. If Chris wins, what it means for Aaron to please yourself is not to have to bear moral obligations. He always feels that Chris’ motives are unethical. Even if Aaron is potentially gay, it does not mean that he can be irresponsibly treated. Seduce, this is a bit chaotic at first (maybe my own concept is too conservative).
As the story progresses, Chris lures Aaron into skin contact with the PP injury (no ML). At this time, Aaron looks so dazed and at a loss, but Chris doesn’t matter what it means, Aaron. Obviously irritated by this sentence, he said angrily, the first time it was so important to me, it was so insignificant to you! (To the effect) Your appearance is very beautiful and colorful, but your inside is simply a waste. You are like a flower that can walk and talk. Then I asked Chris: Do you have any firm belief in anything?
Well, from here on I kind of liked this film, especially Aaron's questioning touched me a little bit. There are very few serious people in this era, serious about life and serious about feelings. I have been very confused recently, because I suddenly found out that I had never seriously considered what I wanted, what kind of life I wanted to live, and what kind of meaning this kind of life had to my life. Talking to a friend, the friend said that this kind of question sounds disgusting, because in his opinion it seems pedantic and bookish. But how many people have a sense of their own life, instead of being a monk and hitting the clock for a day!
Good things always have to be destroyed before they show their preciousness. When Chris and Aaron kissed, they were discovered by other Mormons, so Aaron was sent home. Chris chased him all the way to the airport and made a confession of love to Aaron. In the hotel near the airport, the two had a passionate night. . Many people say that the filming of ml is very pure, but I don’t think it is good. For a moment, Aaron’s performance made me think that he is a middle-aged veteran. On the contrary, he prefers the mirroring, light and color of "Summer Storm", and it has certain characteristics. Realism. Moreover, Chris's claim of becoming gay is also unreliable and even pretentious. The next day, Aaron left without saying goodbye. Then came Chris’ search and Aaron’s expulsion, suicide, and cruel "treatment". Here we always thought that the open America showed its intolerance, which formed a strong contrast with the atmosphere in the restaurant where Chris served, and also hinted This is the same value split and conflict that American society faces on the issue of homosexuality.
At the end of the film, lovers finally get married. This is a rare happy ending in gay movies, like a very vulgar romantic drama, but I am still moved by finding a way out for true love.
It must be said that the selection of Aaron's actors in the film is really good. That is the biggest highlight of the film. It looks quite comfortable, and the innocence and shyness are quite suitable for the character's temperament. By the way, I know that the actor is called Steve Sandvoss. He graduated from Harvard University. He actually majored in Chinese. During his time at school, he was active in artistic societies. He often participated in theater performances. "Latter Days" was his first movie. The latest one is " "Rumor Has It", I hurried down to take a look. I really didn't like his appearance in the film. With the golden centerpiece, he looked dull and lacklustre. He was too far away from his true color and was extremely disappointed.
