Wang Xiaobo once wrote a story about a transvestite homosexual in "East Palace and West Palace", which was also adapted into a movie by Zhang Yuan. It's just that the plot is interpreted as one obscure symbol and irony, and emotion is the weakest link. So, we are lucky enough to get an emotional compensation in "Breakfast at Pluto." Let's take a look at the joys and sorrows of a transvestite boy, Patrick Briden, and a roaming diary of a boy who lacks love in search of his mother. Look at his frankness and pride, kindness and perseverance, innocence and seductiveness, femininity and beauty, loss and satisfaction. His love, friendship and affection. A beautiful transvestite boy with a blond wig, thick female makeup, and self-confidence. Among all kinds of strangers, he refused anyone to change himself. From the beginning to the end, we are fortunate to witness an alternative life from bitterness to warmth.
His love, from the first scene to the last scene, has been truly loved. His love with the band's lead singer Billy stemmed from chance encounter and use. When Billy loved him, he affectionately called him "Kiden". When Billy learned that he threw away all the guns he had hidden in the house, he yelled at him "whore". And Patrick sat alone in a single shirt, shrunken and trembling in the wind, his eyes were calm and sad, and his mouth was murmuring. "I know, I know you're joking when you say you bring roses, maybe candy, but I still find it sweet to this day." Then, watch him drive away. In the blink of an eye, it was as if the scene of the two of them dancing together was just yesterday. He asked Billy if he would take him to the hospital if he came home and saw him lying there, and the man said yes. It's just that the bunch of roses will never come. Then, he met the magician who took pity on him, and Kidon found his hope. He made up a story about his mother for himself, and affectionately called her "Ms Misty". However, when the magician uses his longing for his mother time and time again to make money, who can say more love or more use in this love. Is love a beautiful thing? Pat stood alone in the rain and muttered questions. He was abandoned by his parents since he was a child, never enjoyed the sincere love of others, but madly held out his sincerity. Many people think that being loved is a beautiful thing. But in Pat's eyes, loving someone is a beautiful thing, and being loved is the paradise he has been looking for.
His friendship, from the first four to the last two and a new life. Although Patrick Braden has a love of transvestites since he was a child, he is fortunate to have three friends growing up. Although a fool, a coward, a man woman. However, this is not the personality and characteristics that each of us ordinary people have, at least they are real and cute enough. When the harsh social environment took away his silly boy and coward, leaving only a transvestite and a man-in-law to live in this sad and desperate world. Innocent and romantic, Patrick, who calls himself "Kiden", can still walk on with a shiny yellow wig and a big smile.
His affection, from looking for his mother to find his father in the end. Even though life was so hard, he chose to smile all the time. His mother abandoned him mercilessly, while he searched hard. Weaving good, romantic excuses for her, telling herself that she's just being engulfed in London, devoured by the biggest city in the world. We will never know how powerful a person's attachment is. Patrick is willing to weave all kinds of stories for himself on the way of searching, full of strong personal romanticism. He kept looking for his mother, and finally found that the mother already had another son, Patrick with the same name. Instead of self-pity sorrow, he forgives relievedly. He smiled softly at the other Patrick, calling herself Miss Ethereal. Then, pass another ethereal lady.
As Bei Dao said in the "Manifesto", in an era without heroes, I just want to be a person. In the era of Miss Ethereal, politics was chaotic, and Patrick just wanted to be his real Miss Ethereal. We are fortunate to meet such a person, and say "Hi, Miss Misty" happily. After that, misty exists only in the wind of the world.
