The day after David derailed Kate, Alex questioned David and told how David approached him and the past, which caused a dispute between the two. David can't be loyal to his love and partner and derail him. This is to be condemned both emotionally and morally.
Before that, when David and Alex met not long ago, David rescued a drunk boy. After David bid farewell to Alex, David was alone with the boy. This is actually similar to what happened to Kate later.
So the route of the whole story is like this.
Shortly after Alex and David met, the appearance of the drunk boy showed David a trait, and this trait was that David would be able to face Qin Muchu. And Alex was angry from this incident to the next day, which shows that he doesn't like this trait of David. In this situation, in real life, someone will conclude that the other party is a scumbag and disconnect from the other party. This kind of treatment actually fundamentally isolates the possibility that he/she will be further hurt by the scumbag. Of course, some people will treat it as if nothing happened when the other party apologized or gave a good gesture, and continue. In the film, David solved this problem by giving Alex a helmet.
When David and Kate met, Alex was already upset by the intimate behavior of the two that day. At this time, Alex's feelings were actually the same as the previous incident between David and the drunk boy. For most of the day before David and Kate actually had sex, Alex was angry but still did nothing. It didn't happen until the next day. In the real world, even if people choose to forgive for the first time, many people will realize that the other party is incurable the second time a similar situation occurs, so they have to disconnect. But when David said to be separated, Alex was begging for mercy. This shows that he is still unwilling to be separated from David. Assuming that David did not die in a car accident, it is foreseeable that the plot of David's derailment and Alex's choice to forgive and continue may be repeated for a long time.
In the film, Alex only has David in his eyes. In his words, even if every second is with David, he feels that it is not enough, so his life revolves around David. This can be understood as Alex loves more or only loves David, and his world only has David. When Alex’s world only had David, David’s derailment might have caused him to be betrayed, but the greater harm is that David’s friendliness with others means that David will also appear in others’ worlds, so David is It is possible to leave him. Alex's fear of David leaving him is beyond everything, so he will choose to forgive and beg for mercy after the other party proposes to break up. As long as David doesn't leave him, everything can be said.
David is the world of Alex. If David leaves Alex, then Alex's world is empty or collapsed. So for Alex, David is a person or a tool that keeps Alex's world from collapsing, and what Alex likes is the stability and harmony of his world and the closeness between himself and each other when this person or tool is there. From this perspective, since the other person has the meaning of a tool, it doesn't matter whether the David in his heart is the real-world David or not, and it doesn't even matter whether the person is David or not. This is actually what Kate said that Alex is not in love with David, but his imagination of David. That's why after David died, Alex was lying on the corpse such a puzzling behavior, that even if you die, as long as my imagination is not dead, you are still the person or tool in my heart. Since David was imagined, his body disappeared, and Alex had to quickly find a new one to continue his imagination, which is why he can quickly catch up with a new man. So behind Alex's self-confident love for David, in addition to love, there is actually his possessive desire to devour, that is, he has to make the other party part of himself to be at ease.
"Please call me by your name" is that I love you so much that I hope I can become you, and this movie is that I love you so much that I want you to become a part of me, this is "please call you by my name" ". The two have similarities, that is, the two are combined into one, so in both cases there will be extremely intimate happy times, but because people have instinctive resistance and rejection of being swallowed, the latter will always make people doubt this. This kind of love is true or false.
In fact, the two male protagonists in this movie have their own psychological dilemmas. When their respective dilemmas are not resolved, the result is definitely to solve their own problems by controlling each other and kill each other in love. This is actually very common in movies of the opposite sex, but it is rare in movies of the same sex, so the movie already has elements similar to "The Lost Lover", but the tragedy of separation after passion and sweetness ends up only in Kate's sentence Explanation, so the movie has a little bit of unhappiness and dog blood.
