seemed like an unconscious confession...
He turned his face to his side, and a trace of longing passed by his delicate face.
As the picture opened, an ambiguous sentiment slowly permeated...
A blond man leaned down, his handsome face pressed against his dark brown curls, and his slender fingers were full of power, still in his temple ears. I linger around...
this power encourages him.
His hand stroked the neck covered with thick blonde hair... the
ambiguity was pushed to the extreme, and there was such an emotion that was about to move, and it was on the verge of triggering.
Dark brown hair curls swayed, determined to break through the fog...
His hug was eager and cautious, for fear that it would startle the other party and himself.
He lay down on his thick blonde hair and
kissed deeply... Some kind of sleeping consciousness was awakened by the kiss...
His breathing became heavier... Seeing each other's hungry lips are about to be jealous... It's
a little bit worse, that's it. So a little bit.
He only had time to leave his embrace a second before the crowd poured into the room.
In 1987, "Morris", a classic British gay movie.
Tells the story of gay sex in the early 20th century.
The above is a set of shots in this movie.
The superb acting skills of James Wilby and Hugh Grant made this set of shots become a model for gay films in the world.
The first time I saw this movie was to appreciate Hugh Grant’s unparalleled British temperament. He played Clive—Morris’ Cambridge classmate, the first love who left Morris and married a woman. spouse.
Sure enough, his beautiful face at the age of 27 immediately shocked me.
Two years later, by accident, I read the original book of the same name by EM Foster.
I have to say that this novel deeply shocked my soul.
The entanglement between the soul and the flesh, the betrayed lover, the taboo relationship of different classes, the desperate feelings... The
novel laid out Morris's complicated psychological process with delicate brushwork, and he struggled with all kinds of unspeakable contradictions. , Finally came to the climax of the dilemma, difficult.
Fear, escape?
Face, accept?
When the ending came, naturalness and sociality resisted and refused to compromise.
Lovers of the same sex finally obeyed the call of nature and declared their opposition to society.
The desire to watch the movie again makes me want to stop.
This time, I was stuck in it and couldn't help myself.
It is not to distinguish between novels and movies, which are better, they complement each other. Novels make movies fuller, and movies make novels more vivid.
It is precisely this mutual effect that the two together have an extraordinary artistic charm.
The forbidden love between the male protagonist Morris, a young financier and Alek, the hunting field watcher, became the bond of my heart.
I have to admit that British films are really handy and even better for creating an ambiguous atmosphere of emotion and lust.
Due to the successful creation of this atmosphere, the advancement of the plot to the climax becomes more exciting, and the moment when it erupts, it becomes more thrilling, and the aftermath after the eruption becomes more memorable.
The development between Morris and Alek is the best interpretation of this process.
A seemingly accidental encounter in the manor;
waiting outside the window in the dark at night;
there was a soft voice: "Sir, I'm glad you came back so soon."
Alek might not have expected that he actually had the courage to take the risk. In the dead of night, he got into the French windows and plunged into Morris’s arms...
Just as Alek later confided to Morris. As he said at the time: "Sir, the first time I saw you, I had a thought:'I wish I could be with this gentleman...Can he and I...'"
At the beginning of the encounter, he was already He was fascinated.
At that time, it was Morris' most vulnerable time, because his former lover Clive had married a woman.
Alek looked up at Morris' bedroom window on a rainy night.
He longed to see him.
He saw it.
He saw his "sir" leaning out the window, screaming loudly, and raining heavily on the hair, face, and body of the man who
was thinking about him... it was Morris's almost broken catharsis— -Anger, loss, hesitation, humiliation, low self-esteem...
Maybe Alek didn't really understand the torment that Morris suffered in his heart.
But he heard the most primitive call from the depths of Morris' soul.
Late the next night, Morris watched as the hunting guard climbed to the top of the wooden ladder and got into the long window of his bedroom...The
intruder only hesitated in front of the window sill for a moment, then he rushed forward and hugged him without hesitation. Lived Morris.
Fiery lips explored Morris's neck and shoulders: "Sir... are you calling me... Sir... I understand... I understand... Sir..." The
wild kiss became more intense.
The wheezing sounded one after another, and it was unclear whether it was due to a sudden panic or a rapidly soaring passion...
Desire was burning, and it was close to the critical point of the explosion.
Morris' pajamas were torn off.
"Come on, lie down." Alek's whisper was like a spell...
The kiss on his naked chest was almost crazy.
This desperate madness completely left Morris in despair...
This plot of the movie was completely shot in accordance with the narration of the original book.
This is the essence of the whole novel.
James Wilby and Rupert Graves, these two outstanding actors, with their superb acting skills and profound skills, interpret this episode with sparks and passion.
At the age of 29, James Wilby was 1.88 meters tall, with blond hair, blue eyes, red lips and white skin, a long figure, and noble temperament. It is said that he was once jokingly called him the best dress frame in Britain. His thick and lush blond hair made me deeply intoxicated.
There is no doubt that James Wilby made "Morris" appear in front of the audience alive, and he gave "Morris" life.
I believe that if EM Foster were still alive in 1987, he would definitely applaud James Wilby’s performance with tears.
Rupert Graves, the unforgettable "Alek", the most breathtaking thing is his eyes, desire and passion, all from a pair of beautiful eyes.
His delicate and tender temperament made people misunderstand that he was just a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy. In fact, Rupert Graves was already twenty-four years old.
In the UK in 1987, it was not easy to star in a gay-sex movie.
I think that the two actors must have been under indescribable pressure. The pressure of society is second, and the pressure of their own is the key-after all, they are two men who are clearly heterosexual!
Especially in the film, the front of the two men was completely nude in a small London hotel, which is even more bold.
In 2004, the middle-aged James Wilby and Rupert Graves talked about the passionate scenes of the two in an interview with the actors of "Morris", and the faces of a little vicissitudes of life were invariably swept across a trace of embarrassment. .
After 17 years, the feeling at that time is still fresh in my memory, and the success of the two roles is really not easy.
The outstanding James Wilby and Rupert Graves finally gave this movie a unique brilliance and won endless applause for "Morris" and "Alek".
I believe that many people think that if they are really a couple in reality, it would indeed amaze and admire men and women all over the world.
After a lingering night, Morris and Alek met in a cricket match.
A smile with my heart's comprehension; an
affectionate look back; a
taut stare;
every seemingly inadvertent look tells of irrepressible infatuation.
In full view, they shared the tenderness and affection that belonged to the two.
If last night was a physical carnival, then today is a scene of intense emotional collision.
The two in white clothes and white pants on the green field, one is handsome and handsome, and the other is young and romantic.
It has always been thought that only fair-haired European men are suitable for a white attire.
James Wilby in white clothes and white pants is amazing!
In the sunny morning, the grassy stadium, he came in styles, like a prince in mythology, the perfect fusion of the holy white and the tall figure, the outstanding elegance of the charm is fully expressed.
It is said that EM Foster envisioned three endings for this novel. One is the death of Morris or Alek, the second is that Alek and his family go to Argentina, and the third is the ending now-the two betrayed together. The society gave up its future and decided to live together.
Oh, thank God!
How correct is the choice made by old Foster!
Otherwise, how many people will sigh for this excellent work!
On one night three days before Alek was about to leave for Argentina, Morris persuaded Alek to give up his career in Argentina and stay with him in the UK, for which he was willing to betray his noble social status and identity.
Alek found it incredible, he didn't believe it at all.
"Sir, think about it, we might as well not meet."
Is such a difficult relationship such an embarrassing ending?
Helpless Morris went to the boat to see Alek off, but he found that Alek hadn't even boarded the ship.
He understood Alek's choice.
Full of happiness, Morris found his beloved lover.
The ecstatic hugs and kisses made people cry.
This set of climax shots is perfect.
From the entry of Morris, to the dialogue between the two, and the hug and kiss that followed, each shot is full of expressiveness, and each picture has its own meaning.
The lighting, scenery and angles are all just right.
The performance of the actors is amazing.
In the flames of the burning fireplace, Alek's gentle eyes, Morris's expression of joy and excitement, they are sure that they have got the love of this life.
Morris pulled Alek up and kissed deeply in his arms. This action can be said to be the essence of this group of shots, the highest embodiment of the blend of soul and body.
Morris' first lover, Clive who believed that "the only reason for the justification of relationships between men is purely spiritual love", was extremely shocked by Morris' confession.
"I shared it with Alek."
"What do we share?"
"Everything, including my body."
This is tantamount to a blow to Clive, who admires "male spiritual love".
Perhaps it can be understood that this is Morris's last and only revenge for the harm Clive has done to him.
"I am a man of flesh and blood." Morris said.
