I watched 10 episodes in one go, and a feature film is about 28 minutes long.
As Love, Simon's spin-off drama, the highlight of this drama is that it focuses on describing the family on the basis of the youth campus, adding many new elements.
Everyone in the play is so considerate, especially Mia, who acts as a peacemaker when she first arrives at her boyfriend's house; she is so considerate even when Victor has let her dove many times, she would rather be sullen by herself, I don't want my boyfriend to know. Victor has always been the family's fixer, adjusting all kinds of conflicts in the family and not wanting to cause trouble for the family. Victor's parents also hide many things, including why they moved, in order not to worry their children. Everyone is so gentle, there should be no such troubles, but the reality is that there are more troubles: everyone is hiding, trying to satisfy others, but their own problems have been unable to be solved, and the last fuse can be Detonate all the contradictions and dissatisfaction accumulated in yourself.
According to Victor, he just wanted to make life easier. When he realized that he was gay, he knew that his gay identity would hurt the people around him. His first thought was that there might be a way to return to normal. His heart is very eager for normal life, but he can't get rid of the reality, so he decides to hide it and find a solution that makes himself and the people around him comfortable. Even if he decides to tell Mia in the end, he will delay until the end of the dance and give Mia a wonderful night. Maybe he is a person who pleases like many of us and is not willing to cause trouble to others, but the fact is that many times, we have to play the role of trouble maker, because our problems cannot be solved by ourselves, and we cannot bear it alone. Or we need outside power, need the support of others.
As Simon's reply in the play said:
Too often, we care so much about the feelings of others that we forget about ourselves.
Maybe what we need to do is to be sincere to the people we love and speak out boldly, rather than bear it silently by ourselves.
In the end, after hearing the bad news of the separation of his parents, Victor decided not to hide it anymore and came out resolutely. I felt relieved when I saw this. Yes, life is a mess, and the family is in jeopardy. As a member of the family, it is your responsibility to maintain the family, but should your own problems be postponed? Thinking about it carefully, there may not be a good time to come out. Maybe there is a time in your life to express yourself bravely, which will make yourself easier. Maybe such bravery is reckless and will hurt more people, who knows?
But isn't that what life is like? There is unease in trivialities, no one knows where the wind will blow, and we will never be able to escape from what we have to face in the end. Do what you want, be a childish but happy child for once.
