I admit that I was attracted by the so-called "Brokeback Mountain of He", so when I watched it, I couldn't help but compare the two - some "corresponding" plots, the layout of large blue and wilderness, and the narrative like running water... ...but I was disappointed.
This movie is like the romantic reverie of youth, with confusion, loneliness, the pursuit of self and love or something - the reality is just left behind.
It's not that gay movies must highlight social reality, and the social environment in the UK is much more friendly, and it's okay to talk about sweet love directly. But when it talked about - the father had a stroke, the grandma was in tears while ironing - such sadness and predicament were carried over lightly, the reconciliation between the father and the male protagonist in the later period was really disappointing, and the film broke away in that shot. me.
And the issue of immigration and employment that was also mentioned but eventually became the background board. The process of looking for a job again after the second male left is completely worth mentioning, but it was also in vain. In the end, it was like a young couple who had a conflict and then reconciled. The... ordinary story.
Except for "the days" at the end of the whole film, there are only two pieces of music, both of which are piano. When the sound sounds, the play is played instantly. The slightly artificial rendering makes the tone of this film more and more biased - and the stomachache literature only Just a little distance away. The narrative is a bit dark but lacking in detail. The relationship between people stays at a superficial level, and the emotional investment is not in. The later plot is stuck in my eyes until the end (the part where the two came back in the car) comfortable.
I don't think that's what the director meant when he chose "The Kingdom of God", but when I look at the title now, I only think of "The Kingdom of Fantasy".
