It's not a gay movie, it's a growth movie. Homosexuality is only part of the deformed psychology of growing up, and the focus of this film is on freak, not faggot. It can only be said that the last speech was too exciting and thought-provoking: Director Ang Lee said that there is a Brokeback Mountain in everyone's heart, and most people only think of same-sex, gay...now Think about it, that Brokeback Mountain is not a little secret that everyone can't tell!
Freak Show, because he showed the restricted area in his heart, he became the most "weird" one. Others chose to cover up, became normal people, and began to lose themselves.
In fact, "quirks" are just characteristics unique to each person. People hide a different and unknown side of their hearts, just to follow and cater to this society. It can only be said that most people are still cowardly, they dare not show it, and they grow up under invisible pressure. Because this society is not tolerant enough, not sentimental enough. Although I can't get the answer, I can't help but ask: "Why can't you and I build an inclusive and non-biased society, where people no longer hide from their differences, but grow in the process of releasing themselves?
I really like the ending, Billy didn't lose, but won completely. Because people have realized that even if he is transvestite, even if he is gay, he is still a normal person, a sunny boy, not a "queen". It directly extends the theme from the growth of the individual to the sublimation of the collective driven by the individual.
A movie can drive my understanding of myself and growth. After it is thought-provoking, why should I be demanding of others? good film.
