Sadness without tears

There is a kind of sadness, which is calm. No matter whether you agree with it or not, there is always a person, a story, a movie...that makes you full of pain but cannot make you cry. This sad emotion will make the heart tangled even more.
There is no ups and downs in the whole film. Even at the moment when the sex is exposed, there is a slow and depressive feeling. But it often mobilizes the tearful taste buds, and it is just right to prevent tears from coming out of the eyes. This may be a technique to keep emotions on the edge. All this shocked me. The director's narrative style and the coordination of sound and picture played my sadness on his applause.
I really like the soundtrack of the film. It is slow and gentle. In fact, it resembles the attitude of a male translator of Nuoyi, an elegant gentleman or a tough lady, alone in the eyebrows, neither humble nor overbearing. She yearns for love that way, and resists anyone entering the inner world. He envied the flirtation and admiration of others, and every couple around him hand in hand is a high hope for him. After a long period of gender confusion, she herself began to wonder whether she should be obsessed with men or yearning for girls. Of course, he envied his friends to build a family and live a comfortable life like a man. Simply yearning for the love and marriage of a young boy, maybe he was wrong, but at least she has loved someone and has the courage to yearn and even plan family life. This in itself is an endlessly beautiful thing for him!
Perhaps some people complained that the protagonist was too fragile to leave, and the inconclusive ending made it impossible for the judges to respond to the emotions of the film. But real life is not originally developed to respond to spectators! At least before he left, he had defended his passionate girl from a male perspective. The moment he left the world, he recognized his role in the world and affirmed it. This in itself is a kind of the most beautiful relief, no matter what the ending is, the recognition of oneself is the best ending!
Glenn Glos' obsession with the protagonist is destined to be the best candidate for the protagonist!
