A book condensed into a two-hour video.

The whole movie is an interlude, Tim is traveling, he forgot who was sitting there, and hurriedly called her. After a long time, the person over there asked the hotel to leave a message for him, which was connected to the end of the story: John is always by your side. Hold can be understood as many meanings. The first layer is to fall in love with him. Tim fell in love with the football guy. After some flirting, the two confirmed their relationship; the second layer is to hold him tightly. The two were discovered by John's father, but The two of them didn't waver at all, they broke out of the window, and the two rode their bikes out, so they hugged tightly; the third floor held him tightly, Tim had an open relationship, and the two contracted AIDS, and John's condition became more and more serious. The camera lengthens, John's breathing gets farther and farther; the fourth layer remembers him, the Toxoplasma gondii begins to oppress Tim's brain, he begins to forget the past, and returns to reality, it turns out that he is so urgent to make a phone call to remember John, remember the young man who walked side by side with the campus, the lover who has been with him for fifteen years, the one who has always lived in his heart! Holding, when he wrote their story, he knew they would be together again.

    This is not the best of the year, this should be one of the best gay movies. The casting of the actors is great, not relying on looks and acting skills, the corners of the eyes and brows are slightly affectionate, and the chemical effect is so strong. Resisting the pressure of the world but unable to keep the promise of monogamy, this is not only the helplessness of gay love, but also the love between men and women.

    It's a very warm film, although it's a not very new story, but the love story that has happened is always touching.
