This movie is 5 or 6 years ago. I finally bought it recently. It's very enjoyable!

A dying director, a young navy forced to retire. One is actually just seeking sexual satisfaction to fill his empty old age, and the other is more of curiosity and desire for paternal love. The emotions between men burst out like this, even though they seem calm. Under the eyes of the gods, the monster in his heart shrank and expressed his emotions, and at the same time he was trapped by his own painful history. The old man finally couldn't resist the demon in his heart and stroked the young man's body almost madly, but after that, he finally chose to commit suicide. After the angry boxing old man, the young man unbuttoned his shirt and laid the sheets for him...

FRANKENSTEIN, the brain-changing man made by this Frankenstein, everyone is afraid of him, avoid him, and see him as a monster , But under his ugly appearance, is a very lonely heart... The author of the novel, FRANKENSTEIN's "father" JAMES WHALE, as a homosexual, gives the characters such meaning, I am afraid it is not difficult to understand. The fear of loneliness, imprisonment, and discrimination he vented in the story was deeply immersed in my mind, and easily passed through the wall I built for myself, and my deeply suppressed emotions. , Slowly merged together, it turned out to be so harmonious and natural. In the movie, James was drowning and floating quietly in the swimming pool, swimming...

PS: IAN MCKELLEN, who plays JAMSE WHALE, is the GANDOLF in LOTR. He is also an artist who can be honest about his homosexuality, paying tribute to his great performance in this film and his rare courage as a public figure!
