A romantic soul, although very understanding of style, is rarely understood in love. Such a soul, always with curiosity about the world and blind confidence in kindness, lives in the greenhouse built for him by himself or his relatives and friends. He believes in goodwill, worships everything that has to do with beauty, and even draws an equal sign between beauty and goodwill. And the reality finally used pain and suffering to tell him that there is still a very beautiful and cruel thing in this world called "femme beauty" - just like Booth. And that romantic soul is Wilde.
The beauty of Booth is the beauty that makes people fall in love at first sight, the beauty that is unforgettable, and the beauty that cannot be stopped. His appearance is the beauty of the contradiction between femininity and masculinity; his heart is the beauty of the conflict between delicacy and tyranny.
Such beauty is easy to evoke the most primitive desires in people's hearts. The pleasure of being on the side of a beauty is like wearing a fancy dress that is unique to her and walking in front of the public. Apart from the fancy dress, she only has the pride of a winner. Then lit a handful of wolf smoke, digging out the heart of a loyal minister, even if the soldiers came under the city, they would give their lives to Bo Junxiao. Such tragedies, throughout ancient and modern China and abroad, have happened to many princes and generals; and when all the beauty was gathered in Booth, Wilde's tragedy was written.
Booth was someone Wilde wanted to love, someone he wanted to prove his ability to love. In the play, Booth often behaves like a willful child, doing bad things and doing things arbitrarily; and what about Wilde? He used his unrelenting love and dedication to Booth to prove himself, to prove that he could integrate into the world of this man who loves each other, that he could fight the world with his own strength, that he could love people with all his heart instead of being loved, be cared for, be cared for.
Wilde's tragedy stemmed from condoning Booth, but Booth was not an emotional liar. His love for Wilde was deformed, complex, and indescribable. When Wilde is a parent, he is a child who does not choose words; when Wilde is a lover, he is a poet with tender feelings; when Wilde is a friend, he is a reckless swinger... This is The sadness of Booth's fate, and when Wilde intersected with it and decided to wash the filth with his own clarity, the tragic price was doomed.
Too much love seems to have become one of the causes in Wilde's tragic fate. Booth left Wilde for the first time, and in saying goodbye to his mother, he expressed his love for Wilde. He knew that Wilde loved himself and he loved him, but his love was never as deep and warm as Wilde's for him.
This kind of love makes Booth want to run away when he is sober, indulge when he is intoxicated, and depend on him when he is vulnerable; and when he finds that this love sometimes needs a little return, Booth will choose to give up and discard it without hesitation. , deeply disgusted and disgusted.
Wilde and Booth are a couple, but they are each trapped in different cages. Wilde is trapped in the cage of arrogance and deep love caused by pity, and the punishment is endless giving and giving; Booth is trapped in the cage of contradiction and being deeply loved, and the punishment is endless taking and prostitution. There is no right or wrong, because they both love each other in their own way. They are like people standing on two hills and shouting to each other. They can hear each other's voices, but can never see each other's expressions and appearances.
Robbie's love is even more humble. He always accompanied Wilde with admiration and respect, but he was no match for "the crying child has candy". Like the viper that broke into the Garden of Eden, he lured Wilde to eat the forbidden fruit and open the door to a new world. Seeing Wilde finding himself in the new world, happy like a child catching butterflies, he will not be extreme because of jealousy, but will silently bless with a bitter smile; and whenever Wilde encounters difficulties and crises, he will He will become a knight, protect him, take care of him, and shield him from the wind and rain without hesitation.
Unlike the poisonous snake, he was remorseful and suspicious. As Wilde's misery intensified, this emotion became a growing guilt and clearer pain in his heart. If Booth's concern for Wilde stems from his indulgence of "the past is good and the present is gone", then Robbie misses Wilde more and more because of his own conscience.
Booth's concern stems from beauty, and Robbie's concern stems from pain. Whichever is more important depends only on Wilde, which side he prefers and which convenience is the winner of the wrestling.
As said at the end of the film: "There are only two kinds of tragedies in life: one is not getting what you want, and the other is getting it." Booth's tragedy is to get everything, and Robbie's tragedy is to love and not get.
And what about Wilde? I think his tragedy is that he has experienced a full life, but it is difficult to know it.
In that era, Wilde enjoyed the most gorgeous praise and endured the most despicable insults, but what he left to future generations was endless admiration and admiration. I think most of the people who love him now have feelings similar to Robbie's - "You know, I love and admire you so much."
