"My Grand Gay Wedding": Homosexuality was "shabuped" again

From the same-sex tragedies of the past to the same-sex comedy, gay movies are moving in another direction. "My Grand Gay Wedding" is a typical American comedy, a typical "sex" comedy, a farce that uses homosexuality, but it is even more a gay inspirational film. Comedy + sex + same-sex (here can also be changed to one-night stand, adolescence, old virgin, male to female female to male, etc.) + inspirational = happy to see, this formula is a classic routine in recent American comedy, and the ending is always understood by the family. Way. Although clichéd, it does not prevent the audience from moving and laughing. Although they are talking about homosexuality, they are finally no longer tragic and miserable.

There are so many words derived from homosexuality. Lesbians are called Lala or Lace. Most gays are directly referred to as gay or GAY. Commonly, there is glass, and even the name "broken back" because of a certain movie. "some type of. The above passage is mainly to show that homosexuality is nothing new at all. Even a certain transgender star in South Korea has married a wishful man. If this is acceptable to everyone, accepting homosexuality is simply a pediatrics. Of course, whether the people with strange needs such as transvestites, polysexuals, bisexuals, etc., derived from the time and the physiological development of human beings, can be accepted by the public, it is a matter of time.

There are simply too many movies that talk about homosexuality, and there are a lot of classics with rubbish. People used to live and die because of the love of two Chinese men. For the time being, it can be said that they can accept that kind of feeling a little bit. Of course, more sensationalism and more sadness become disease-free groaning, so all kinds of movies showing how homosexuals are miserable and incomprehensible, or how alternative and rebellious films have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. Homosexuality in movies is essentially different from homosexuality in reality. The difference lies in the director's perspective and the way the audience understands it. Naturally, there are more homosexuals in the movie and the audience starts to feel bored. Some time ago, a lesbian love composed by two women in one Hong Kong and two women gave the impression of artificial creation. Except for the legendary nude scene that attracted the attention of two fans, I really don’t know whether these two chicks came and kissed. What is it for? Of course, "Brokeback Mountain", which was infinitely beautiful at the Oscars, finally gave the same-sex movies that sank to the bottom of the valley. The point is that Ang Lee is not homosexual for the sake of homosexuality, but for love, pure love, so everyone was moved.

When homosexuality becomes a form, or even a special form for some people to flaunt themselves, it naturally appears extremely pretentious. Only those people who treat homosexuality as a normal way of love and a way of life, and naturally deal with it, can appear real, and the stories they tell can really move the audience.

Although the phrase "getting gay sex" is used to describe same-sex comedy, it is somewhat less kind, but it definitely does not mean to despise homosexuality. It shows that finally we no longer have to watch those gay movies for the sake of homosexuality. We use peace To look at this group with the eyes of the people and treat them as members of our lives. This is the idea that the same-sex comedy wants to convey to the audience.

This film reminds people of another same-sex comedy "Lovesickness", the same source of jokes with homosexuality, the same life of a sexy heroine and a few gay men. Compared with "I", "Xiang" is more natural in its treatment of homosexuality. It can be said that this group of people and their life backgrounds are completely background, and there is no specific point of view for homosexuality. "I" shows some of the difficulties of homosexuality in the United States. Although homosexual marriage has been legalized, compared with some European countries, the acceptance of homosexuality by Americans is not very high. There are still people protesting against homosexuals. . In other words, the two movies that are also in the category of same-sex comedy, one completely ignores the sensitive issue of homosexuality, and the other expresses the sensitivity of homosexuality in a light-hearted way. Of course, if you insist that the two films are not comparable at all, it is not necessarily wrong. One is a typical European romantic comedy and the other is a typical American comedy. The difference in cultural acceptance of comedy has created a difference in style between the two films. However, there is one thing in common that is understandable, that is, they all use "homosexuality", and they do well.

In fact, the two men in this funny same-sex wedding are not really gay at all. They are just a pair of partners. The relationship is pure friends and brothers. This means that the theme of the film is no longer limited to the topic of homosexuality. After watching the whole film, we are not only moved by the feelings between the same sex, but by the friendship between two old men. The friendship between men is more attractive to the film itself than homosexuality. The friendship between men is not the way women talk about little secrets, go shopping and complain, but a kind of friendship that speaks loyalty, is the kind of buddy who is one's own. When you really need help, will you give a helping hand? Therefore, even as a woman, she was still touched by the friendship between these two old men. A single father who loves his child and his wife died early, a slutty middle-aged single man, two men with completely different identities and living environments are good friends. The most important thing is that they will tolerate each other's efforts to integrate into each other's lives.

Through this "ulterior motive" gay relationship, a man who lost his wife began to work hard to forget the past and face a new life. A playboy found a truly beloved woman, and discovered and realized that there is something more than sex in this world. Important things exist between men and women. The fire brigade colleagues began to understand homosexuality and helped two of them to come out successfully. This weird and inexplicable relationship allowed the two adult men to grow up and mature again, and let the people around them feel the beauty that is unknown but happens every day around us, from friends, family, and lovers. Whether you are gay or not, what we need to get along with each other is always understanding, which becomes the basis for us to learn to love. Therefore, although the film is not a perfect American comedy, it is a warm American comedy.
