Pale after opening teeth and dancing claws

First of all, I want to like the poster, it is enough to make people scream.

The story of the movie is taken from the autorotation novel by a best-selling author in the United States.

Since it sells well, it must be full of color, fragrance, and Shit. There's no shortage of American humor (to be honest, I've waited for foreigners to see it and it's just cold...) and gags about excrement. Simply put: a GAY's youth growth diary. I don't know how Lao Mi listed this book as an optional textbook for colleges and universities. Anyway, I flipped through it every time I squatted in WC, and it happened that I only finished it one day.

The book is translated a bit badly, so watch the movie.

The music is great, as well as the costumes and sets. Especially clothing, I can't resist LOOK in the 70s recently. (off topic)

Annete Bening and Paltrow's performances are still in place, I prefer the actors who play the dog food housewife.

The movie cuts out a lot of R-rated details that are unremarkable. The spirit of the original work is basically preserved. But because the original work was originally a piece of scattered diaries, the whole plot was also scattered. I don't know if people who haven't read the original will find it a bit ridiculous? Enough BH, crazy enough, bizarre enough, something ugly and touching after a series of thrills.

Fortunately, there is still a bunch of old actors to support.

Maybe it's because everyone's tastes are getting more and more picky, maybe whether it's Lao Mi or our Chinese directors, they will get lost in the busy world...

I wanted to selfishly rejoice in my own small world, but I didn't think it would be disgusting to be strong a handful.

Could it be better? Can we see sincerity?

Running with Scissors quotes

  • Norman Burroughs: So... you're saying we should split up?

    Dr. Finch: In order to reach that conclusion, Norman, I would need to see both you and Deirdre on a regular and disciplined basis, for five hours a day.

    Deirdre Burroughs: I'm available, Doctor Finch.

    Norman Burroughs: Five hours a day? I can't do that! I have to work!

    Deirdre Burroughs: See, Doctor Finch, I told you. I'm married to a narcissist.

    Dr. Finch: Norman, if I'm willing to clear my schedule to save your marriage, but you're not... then get out! Leave this office, go home, and start dividing your books and your record albums.

    Norman Burroughs: This is bullshit. This is really fucking bullshit.

    Dr. Finch: [begins writing in his notebook]

    Norman Burroughs: What're you writing?

    Dr. Finch: "Norman Burroughs is homicidal. He is an unapologetic alcoholic. He is dangerous and a threat to himself, his wife, and his child."

  • Augusten Burroughs: I'm gay, too.

    Neil Bookman: Holy Mary, Mother Of God. So that's what this is about. You're gay?

    Augusten Burroughs: Yeah. I thought Natalie had told you.

    Neil Bookman: Small world, right? You and me. Crazy. Smoke? Here, let me light you. Want a ride home?

    Augusten Burroughs: Please.

    Neil Bookman: I won't go fast. Maybe.

    [Cut to Augusten and Neil in bed]

    Augusten Burroughs: What just happened?

    Neil Bookman: You think you're gay, right? That's what gay men do. Just wanted you to know what you're in for. Want a beer? Smoke?

    Augusten Burroughs: No.
