I watched it almost 20 times since Josh got on the bus at the end of the last paragraph. The director's outstanding aesthetics is vividly reflected in this segment. Josh's photography when he walks, walking and stopping, the fusion of the characters and the background, the delicate emotional processing, everything, so that when the last HE appears, the emotions are just right.
I have seen too many directors who are not capable enough to shoot everything and the details are very complete, but you just can't substitute your feelings, and you can't empathize with the characters in the film.
This really depends on the director’s talent. The director said there is hope, so he has this super healing God's own country.
(The director mentioned in the interview that he found that there is almost no positive ending in the story between the same sex, and he thinks hope is very important, so he has this ending)
? A few details I like:
1. Finally, Gheorghe stroked Josh's face. Josh finally ushered in the long-lost touch and warmth. He couldn't help crying, and then greedily approached Gheorghe's palm, wanting to feel more.
2. The processing of a few sexy scenes is just right, which is an essential part of advancing the story. Gheorghe taught Josh to love and make love.
Especially in this mud-rolling scene on the mountain, the most eye-catching thing is the bright night lights of the distant mountain city, civilization and primitive impulse, restraint and release, and human desires are all in this mirror. freeking love it.
In the interview, it was also mentioned that the parents who have their own children are the same parents who watched the film, and are not disgusted with a few sexy passages at all, but can better understand the children's feelings, reflecting the director's excellent control from the side.
3. After the two embraced at the end, they switched back to the speeding bus at night, and the heavy The days music gradually started. The first scene was Josh leaning against the window, giving the audience the illusion that Josh was going home alone. Then Josh slowly slid towards Gheorghe's neck, the two cuddling. The camera then cut back to the cabin decisively. Josh and Gheorghe watched the caravan be towed away. Josh's face was full of loneliness. He was comforted by Gheorghe's shouldering, and the corners of his mouth quickly smiled.
ps: Because this movie has good emotional handling, the sequelae is that I cycled 38 times in just 5 days. The days...
4. In the mountain hut, Josh's close-ups were taken twice, once when he saw Gheorghe go out and turned sideways in a daze, his mouth was white, and his desire was bursting, and once when Gheorghe had just returned, Josh grabbed the straw nervously. wonder Gheorghe desire him as well or not.
5. A favorite line, Gheorghe said to Josh, I'm not the answer.
❄️Two details that I don’t like:
1. Josh came back from the hospital where his father was hospitalized. Gheorghe prepared a romantic dinner for two to please Josh and also helped him season it. Although it echoed the seasoning of instant noodles on the mountain, the emotional transition was very sudden. I don't think it was Josh who would enjoy the two at that time. The world’s good opportunities, on the contrary, appear to be Gheorghe deliberately.
2. At the end, Josh wiped his face regretfully after the two of them had spoken and turned their heads. He mustered the courage to turn around and hold Gheorghe here. The "acting" was a bit obvious. He still prefers to use facial expression instead of physical movement. To express the emotion of turning point.
?About the actors
I went to youtube to pick up some interviews, and I knew that Josh took this role because the character has almost no resemblance to him, which made him very excited. It belongs to the book of love at first sight. After appointing Josh, the Romanian brother went to London auction to test the chemical reaction with Josh, and was finally selected. The Romanian brother is completely a city boy. He has a very good family background and has his own holiday villa in the suburbs of Romania.
Before the filming started, the two people were sent to different farms for two weeks of farm work, and Josh was on the farm where the film was shot.
Romanian brother's English is not as good as in the movie...Josh is much cuter than the characters in the play, the kind of funeral cutie... Both of them are straight...
?director
This is Francis Lee's debut work. The screenwriter and director are both himself. The background is set on the Yorkshire farm where the director himself grew up. Although there are few lines in the movie, the script is very thick, and every look and every subtle movement is described in detail in the script.
Summarize:
Personally, the completion and viewing experience of the movie is better than last year's two LBGT movies cmbyn and bpm.
There is no doubt that this movie has lessons and tribute to BBM, especially the two people fighting, and quickly cut to the perspective of the observer in the distance.
But the whole film is not a simple imitation, and the director did not want to surpass BBM's ambitions. Instead, he chose to tell a relatively small story, and he did it.
