#带少女#(The Boys in the Band)(B+)Like most gay movies, this film is guaranteed to have eye-catching costumes, obvious teasing, funny and mouth-wrenching complaints, and beautiful muscles (Yes, you can count on the gays for shameless shirtless scenes always [shy]). The most important thing is that most gays are very friendly to women, and the female audiences in this kind of film basically only enjoy it without being frightened.

In the following video, the Netflix special feature recalls the "The Boys in the Band" (The Boys in the Band) from the 60s stage play to the current new version of the movie, the surrounding society has undergone great changes. What hasn't changed is that, as they said, you put multiple beautiful men together and they all look good.

In fact, this movie has been filmed once in the 1970s, and I think that with the continuous advancement of gay-sports-movements, there is still a possibility of remakes in the future, because in each different era, people view them differently. . Many people have never heard of the old version of the 70s. Even the performance of such a movie at that time was probably a self-destructive future. Now, Hollywood mobilizes a large number of gay actors to participate in the open. .

But even so, the film may still not be able to be pushed into everyone's sight, and many people still cannot accept it. However, this film still allows people to see the development of the LGBTQ movement and the changes in society. There can be so many different, interesting and complicated LGBTQ characters presented in the film. It is no longer just a supporting role, but in a movie that belongs to them. In the movie.

The movie still revolves around a birthday party like the old version. There are many characters' memories of their previous experiences. On the whole, they are mainly small-scale scenes and dialogues, which are more like a stage play. Several characters vividly displayed all kinds of gays. The character of Jim Parsons is one of the sharpest and most amusing lines. Matt Bomer is mainly responsible for the beautiful and moving, showing the flesh; Zachary Quinto is the most interesting person in the film, full of aggressiveness, and can kill with his eyes.

What's interesting is that in this film, they see them behave very differently in front of similar and different types, like a switch, switching between straight and bends. Because they are too accustomed to "disguise", almost every gay is an excellent "actor". And because they are braver than women, have a flamboyant personality, and often speak amazing words, so gay roles are often full of drama and sense of humor.

The film tells how several gay characters face pressure from society, family, and career, as well as the hardships of various "underground love", and more importantly, how they hate themselves and slowly accept themselves. I think the biggest feature of LGBT works is that they always add a sense of mystery because they cannot be known. They always need to communicate with all kinds of suggestive content, find their own small group and gain recognition.

The actors in the film are all gay actors who have come out from Hollywood, and they may have experienced similar pain as the roles. But seeing them together can reveal their identities and live out their lives proudly. I am really happy.

But at the same time, there are still many such people who can't disclose their gay identity, and can only suppress acting in the eyes of others. I believe that there are many homo-sex-lovers hidden in all parts of the world, regardless of male or female, who have never made it public. I hope they can have the opportunity to be themselves as soon as possible.

If the greatest significance of this film is to let people see the struggles that homosexual people have been experiencing for many years. Although the secular views have changed compared to the middle of the film, it has allowed them to fall in love, live, and live freely. There is still a long way to go to face yourself bravely.

People's thinking changes are often not synchronized. Even if Hollywood is at the forefront of LGBTQ screen representativeness, many people, whether in the United States or elsewhere, are still repelling such films and TV works, but the more they see, the slower their views will be. Change slowly. From the news we have seen recently, the number of LGBTQ movies and episodes will greatly increase in the future.
