"queer as folk" that I thought was only a GAY film. oh) the
beginning and my nonsense:
an opportunity to start watching? I really want to thank Jagua, she told me about this drama many years ago, but I haven't been there too much to see it. Because I still haven't felt that I am corrupt to a certain point, I have never admitted that I am a corrupt woman, even if it is so corrupt.
In fact, I watched the first episode many years ago. The opening scene misled me, and the passion behind it made me misunderstand it even more. Do you think it's a porn movie that mothers say shouldn't be shown to their children? No, any one can be, but it never will be. Does anyone find it superficial? Then all I can say is that "someone" is really superficial.
This is the first drama that I know the ending has not finished all five seasons in one day and night. I just want to know every detail, every expression, every second I don't want to miss, from the beginning to the end. What I'm watching is not just a play, but an exploration of the whole self. I'd love to say more, but it takes time for me to go through all of it again and again. This will be a very long article. I am afraid that some people will not have the patience to read it. I will say a sentence at the beginning to end: QAF is one of the must-see dramas in life (well, at least for people like me )
My whole mood ups and downs can be described as follows: curiosity - patience - entanglement - sweetness - sadness - depression - melancholy - collapse - free and easy - laughing and laughing
For every detail I like, I have read it backwards hundreds of times and
I can't go. Appreciate the hardships of the whole five years. I can only imagine (yes, GUS has grown up and can talk, and is 5 years old!!), when a drama has been with you for five years, and suddenly one day it ends like this, how should you face it? I want to see the ending soon, but I am afraid of fear, but the reality is that every moment in the process is much more than the ending gives us. I guess that's why I've enjoyed watching episodes a week for so many years. It blends into every detail of your life and makes you even think it's part of your life, the illusion that they're really alive.
One of the characteristics of many American TV shows that fascinates me is that although I am terrified of their long "seasons", they always intercept life in that way, they are always a part of life, and when you watch it, you will find: they never start, There will be no ending. They just intercepted a fragment of life, which makes us feel the impermanence of life even more. Fragment between gestures.
About the protagonists:
It took a whole season to get to know each protagonist and to shape those images in my heart. The more I learned later, the more happy I was. Never realize that you can't leave.
You know me, I always like to put my favorites last, not out of habit this time, but because I really need more time to think about my favorite characters.
I have to admit that I have negative feelings for M during the entire viewing process, and sometimes I really find him annoying, but he is still the Michael who is empathetic, whose behaviors and thoughts often contradict himself——
I think he has always admired B's free and easy, the kind of heartthrob, but he has always loved Brian. He is the one who has been waiting, and he has grown up. In the beginning, he was indeed a follower, or a small follower, in worldly terms? Waiting for B to complete some kind of ritual every day, and then drive back home. He couldn't let go of B, but he endured heartache every moment. He is a bit like a mischievous child. He wants to be bad, but he will never be naughty, because he is destined to be a good child from birth. It's just that the people who follow B are all so small. I remember him standing on a high building with B, he accompanied B, breaking down those emotional changes that couldn't be broken down. He cares about all the people he cares about, but sometimes he will play some petty willfulness, such as to his mother, the great mother who is always proud of GAY SON. Regarding him, I think he has a lot of time to be right on his own. It may be a bit ugly. Let's say he has his own persistence. He doesn't think his own ideas and practices are wrong, but as long as he finds out, he will to apologize. He and David, he tried to make himself the right person, and from there, he changed, he started to break away from that sex and no love life, and they tried to integrate with each other, and D would do it on the basis of not wanting to lose him. to resolve the embarrassment between them. He gave up his life here for D, but lost himself.
His growth is obviously some changes, he is no longer B's little follower, he also has to actively pursue love, he caught it, he walked towards his dream step by step, what BIG Q can bring him is BULLSHIT, I envy him If he can find something he likes to do,
he may have a hard time accepting some things, but once he accepts it, he will persevere more than everyone else. At the beginning, like all vulgar ideas, he did not accept Hunter, but he persisted without turning back.
My favorite scene about him is the male disguise there, the beauty is turned over! He is brave and needs to pretend to be brave, but it does not mean that he is timid, but powerful. He always knows what he should do, and he does it. No matter what happens, it’s okay to encounter anything, such as Ben’s HIV positive. He is the kind of person who will convince himself first. Although he often deceives himself, in the end he will face it honestly and express himself honestly. .
He sticks to what he sticks to
Speaking of MICHAEL, by the way, let's put the related BEN, DAVID, HUNTER together.
BEN, how should I say, a good person? He has his tenderness and his rage, he needs to be with him for a lifetime, no matter what, he will be melted by the one he loves. He is kind and knows what to do and what not to do, but for love, he is persistent and considerate.
David, doting, a little macho, the same OCD as me? His love is a bit too much, and people are full of unease, and his possessiveness is too strong, making people want to break free. However, his exit is also a realistic and objective factor, and the actor does not act.
Hunter, he knows what is right and what is wrong, but sometimes he needs some stubbornness and swear words to cover himself up. He longs to be loved, but he is afraid to say it and ask for it, because he is afraid of not getting it or losing it. But no matter what, he finally came back, he found himself, and the people he loved.
DEB, the person who loves his son above all else, will not get married because his son is not married. He hopes that his son will have a father to be proud of, so even if he is scolded, he still has to keep the wrecked one. Kong's lie. She is sincere to everyone, and she always finds time to talk to Brian. She is a qualified and admirable single mother, and any kind of mother has any kind of son. She was sometimes upset by her insincerity, and she hid her hurt over Vic's death. Self-blame, but her tenderness. It's her nature to have a big mouth. The wonder woman JEN who is most considerate of others and cares about those lost lambs
, JUSTIN's mother, she is also great, supports her son, never changes her love for her son, he accepts the person he loves, no matter what it is Form, she tried to understand and protect it to the greatest extent.
He is the host of channel 5. He is the most capable party planner. He is also the gentle and fashionable Emmett. He can give up everything for love, who says it's disrespectful? He uses his own way to understand others, to help others, and to use time to relieve pain. He is the best person to respect love. He knows the most tender places in everyone, and he believes in those tendernesses until he is also scarred. But he was not afraid. He is a typical kind-hearted little woman, with a little vanity and a little bit of indifference. He believes in the fairy tale of Prince Charming and the princess, and he does not hate others when he is belittled by others. He respects the promise and remembers that there was a scene where he wanted to straighten himself up, but being a good friend made him face up to his true self. It took him so long to forgive because he loved his good friend and cared too much and was afraid. All of his good qualities endeared him to countless people. It's kind of a pity to end up with DREW, he's always empathetic, D needs more, they're in love, but it's not the right time, Em knows himself, he knows he can't wait like that, so whatever It is a kind of torture for D or myself, then let go, slowly settle in my heart, and complete the following life with a little expectation. Anyway, he's that gentle, kind little woman who loves to say: FXXK them off
TED, he's actually quite handsome, isn't he? It just always felt like a little old man. He is a typical confused character who thinks his purpose is clear enough, but in fact he doesn't know what he wants. After being mediocre for most of his life, he found what he liked to do. He had little courage, but he could break out at the right time. He might be considered a small person, but such a small person reflects the various attitudes of life. His flexibility is limited, he won't pull too much from left to right, he will only keep entangled around a point. Drug C is indeed unexpected, but he is still awake. He likes to complain, but he can only complain. He fears things that normal people fear, so he's pretty normal. Between him and Em, there is a constant friendship, always supporting each other. He's been looking, and he's back to square one, but he's learned a lot in the process. TED, character people without character.
Melanie, we know that Jews are smart, her intelligence makes her loyal to herself, she can't stand some things that she can't pass in principle, but because of love, she is still willing to make some changes, although it will take some time to melt her stubbornness. In any case, she is in love with children, in love with LINZ. She is assertive and independent, but an ordinary person who will be melted by love.
LINDSAY, is also a model of loyalty to the family, she is always so beautiful, but she hides them, because as long as the person she loves knows about it, the more interesting part of him and SAM, I suddenly thought of a long time ago In a word: the bend is also straightened? She has many parts, but reason is her biggest part, she is tolerant and willing to maintain. What I admire most about them is their loyalty to their families.
Well, I have to say: ah ah ah ah ah, I
finally arrived at my favorite B&J. I was lazy to say it before, but I said so much without knowing it. I guess it was because I was completely in love with this drama. Well
, Justin went from that shy place to the best Queer in a mature b-mouth. He knew he was, he was sure he was, he knew what he wanted. The best thing about him is that he always knows what he wants. One night, he met the person he loved the most in his life. It was indeed a sense of excitement and possessiveness at the beginning, but he also fell in love with this hard "love" in the process of seeking love, and he kept asking for it. J is a discontented child, but this also makes B deeply into the trap of this love whirlpool. He completed his ambition step by step, there were countless pains in the middle, but in the end he got it, but he had to let go. They are similar, but not at all.
He bravely told everyone about himself, and he treated his family rebelliously, but he didn't know what to do, he loved his mother. He'll be happy with small compliments. But he also knew that those were what they were supposed to be.
His stalking is his obsession, GOD, he finally lived in, after countless struggles, he still knows what he wants. He is so confident, danced with B at the prom, and the SUNSHINE signature smile before the beating is also the purest and truest smile he has ever received. After a period of fear that was difficult to overcome, but he persevered, he still knew what he wanted, he wanted to get better and see B. He was lost, but thanks to everyone's support, he is more confident
At the beginning, he may just want to stay with B, but gradually he has more and more desires, and he begins to be dissatisfied with B's promiscuity. He made B bow his head again and again, and after getting a stable relationship, he began to get tired of B's constant life, and then found a violinist. In fact, I always think that he doesn't love E, he just yearns too much for that kind of commitment that he has never had before, that kind of freshness and romance, he gave B a chance, but he doesn't want to wait for someone he knows too well and won't change B, so he left. Those times with B flashed by in front of my eyes, ah, I love it so much there! ! When he really found himself (and took advantage of the opportunity), he made a decisive decision, and then returned to B. He has always loved B, he has been watching over him and helping him, no matter if B was sued by a colleague before or later by his own damn nephew. Smart kid. During that period of pink soldiers, he knew when to stop, he knew that it was no longer a simple resistance, it was already violent, and he was still so outstanding because he was different from others. He is so arrogant, and sometimes he feels awkward. He wanted to do something, but gave up because of B, until B gave him a chance, such as no romance, and he said he would not go to the cycling race.
But his desires were always insatiable, and finally, he began to want to settle down, even though it knew that B couldn't do it. Sometimes it feels like he is so childish, that if he doesn't get it, he will be completely destroyed, but he is so mature, he knows what he wants and how to do it. He was more sensible than before. When he
said it, he thought of a few scenes that he liked very much, such as when he went to DEP's party, and then the small place came to him, and he felt the same as B when he smoked and talked. He is a good attacking candidate, and he also made B willing to be a short-term sufferer~~~ This made B love and hate for a while.
This smart love-hate SUNSHINE
Brian is my most favorite character in this show. He is so contradictory, yet so lovable.
He's a beast on Liberty Avenue, he's always been so charismatic. But he was an odd man.
He said that only FXXK has no LOVE, but he loves him more than anyone else, but he doesn't want others to know, he always maintains that proud image, for fear of how embarrassing he will be if others find out.
He has the determination to declare war on the world. His wildness is his biggest characteristic. He likes to show the most handsome side and hides all cowardice in his heart. He likes and enjoys the praise of others for his promiscuity. He is afraid of others. To say that he is gentle and kind, he is really awkward, but he is really so worthy of love.
He bowed his head to J step by step, giving in, just because he really loved him. Remember he tied the bloody scarf around his chest, ah, hallelujah.
I always feel that he shows his most rogue side to protect himself. He is like a hedgehog, afraid of getting hurt and wraps himself up but wants to warm others. But he never said it.
I love him sitting on the bench worrying about J's sadness, his silent concern but never speaking out, he cares about J but shows his disdain. I saw him buy a computer for J, but when J loses his temper, his lonely expression makes people feel distressed, and his round eyes always make people feel like a child, thinking about something empty.
His superficial concern is misunderstood, but he is the most enthusiastic person. He can go bankrupt for his own principles. He was so awkward that it was annoying to say what he really wanted to say.
Inspired by J, he gradually revealed his sincerity. He is the citizen who pays attention to the truth...
He always feels like a child who has not grown up. (In addition to the meaningless game, I remembered the scene of his suicide, he was afraid of getting old, he chose to bloom once in the best time of his life, like a dazzling firework, short and gorgeous, he is the proud king), he would rather He was hurt and didn't want to show that he cared. Maybe J just can't stand his sex-only life leaving. In fact, he is afraid of change, afraid of others breaking into his world. Speaking of which, his corruption is still quite empty. In fact, he does not really love that kind of life, he just loves that kind of habit.
At the critical moment, he took a gamble because he knew he loved J, but he still let go for the sake of the other party. Ah, I want to cry when I think of it, every time his lonely figure makes people feel heartbroken. He is afraid of others leaving, and in order to avoid leaving, he pushes others away.
He loves MICHAEL, they love each other (they have been flirting with each other), but the love of friends is often long, and there are always excuses to care about each other, I said to him because of M: "We were friends in the past, it doesn't mean that we will still be friends in the future. This relationship needs to be maintained, especially after finding out that we no longer have a common language." And sad.
They always care about each other.
B doesn't care about people he doesn't think he should care about. Although he always talks badly about Em and TED, he is still willing to do something for them. Although he doesn't consider them friends at all. They are just people around them. Even so, he cherished it enough.
He dares to be himself, no matter what others say. It's super cool to see him smash the glass when he buys a car.
He has great work ability, is a successful businessman, he knows how to enjoy life, and is very good to himself.
The characters in the play have been confused for a while, and it doesn't seem like he doesn't, but except for his domineering work, he is quite confused. The most confused thing is his feelings. (This also has a lot to do with the family)
He finally found J, but he really did it for J and pushed him away again.
When he admits his mistake, it makes people feel cute and wants to strangle it~~~
He doesn't promise easily, but once he promises, he will definitely do it, so maybe this is one of the reasons why he never said I LOVE U before, He knew what it meant to say that. He is the most honest person, whether to others or himself, but he sometimes chooses not to express it.
He's childish, especially when he's obviously jealous but doesn't admit it. But because of the explosion overnight, he really changed a lot. In fact, the dazzling light standing on the stage at the end was not what he wanted. He was actually the most confused and didn't know what he wanted. He didn't want to follow the crowd too much. In particular, he overemphasized that he was not a lesbian, but a comrade, so he was unwilling to admit that he would be with him for life. But he didn't realize that too much emphasis on special life was too tiring.
The most touching explosion, he panicked, and the first thing that appeared in his mind was JUSTIN, after that I LOVE U (I said it twice~~~ Proposal twice!!!~)
How can I say it, if I use the characters that children are more familiar with now, B took five seasons and finally became Chuck of the gossip girl in the third season.
Of course, the two can't be compared, just describe it a little bit.
He is the most awkward but also the cutest "uncle".
About thinking:
1. Gay people have more firm love, straight people get married, and maintain their relationship with each other. When there is a breakdown, there is an excuse for marriage to give them time to repair, but comrades understand that if they want to leave, they can leave at any time, but They restrain themselves with firmer love.
2. Many people are afraid of people who are different from themselves, because they cannot understand and feel fear, and even hate it for no reason. In fact, it is just ignorance. People are afraid of cowardice, dare not touch those unimaginable things, and they think their world is incomparable. Correct
3. It is the happiest thing to embrace the person you love the most before death.
4. In fact, the world is very beautiful. I am referring to its own existence rather than all the persecution of people. We can breathe freely, with oxygen and water.
However, many people always want to have a paradise and escape from the real world, but it is just a fantasy, an illusion based on reality. If you don't have your own foundation, you will never know what the so-called beauty is. You always think that there is something better. In fact, if you were not born, you would not know what beauty is, and you would not hate everything. In fact, no one knows what true beauty is, but I do know that it is perfect enough here. Although not perfect.
5. Many things clearly know that they will end, but they still have to struggle, let themselves have a process of dealing with the pain, and finally, let go.
6. We always want to keep the best time. In fact, we all know that we can't go back. Even if it is exactly the same, it is an illusion of survival.
Finally:
In fact, I always feel that I have some kind of mental illness. Some bad things are cool, even admirable, and I like my sick self, but after reading it...
What do you think I am going to say? Is the world beautiful? To put your mind right? NO! I still think the deformity is the most handsome~
After watching it, the first reaction was that I just wanted to scold the screenwriter, why not let them be together, but in fact,
we all know that there is no perfect love in the world.
I remembered that many years ago, when I was 16 years old, I saw the DVD of "Gays and Mortals" in a video store. At that time, I just glanced at it casually, thinking that it was just an ordinary American drama, an ordinary GAY movie, never I thought about making myself unable to extricate myself.
I found that every episode has a different director. If I read it right, ALEX, JOHN, MICHAEL, KEVIN, DAVID, BRUCE...
Everyone has their own distinct style, some are very warm and some are wild. , Some shooting techniques are very unique, no matter what, it is a perfect part.
The last episode of Kelly Makin. A gentle end to a warm episode...
ah ah ah. Suddenly I feel that everyone is a HOMO, will I encounter a HOMO in the future, OH, I may be, haha, how beautiful~~~
God knows that every time I see B&J a smile, a small gesture and KISS, ML How excited I would be, it was a feeling of happiness, every time they embraced each other, I jumped up and down the house screaming and roaring...you can imagine all the words of happiness.
But B&J's love always makes me nervous, their relationship always makes me feel like glass, it looks hard and transparent to each other, but it is actually very easy to break. However, it is pure, and the sex part in the play is also the purity of the original desire of people. God, is that what glass originally meant?
B and J just love each other too much and want to make each other happy. They are both willing to sacrifice. In fact, sacrifice is a very important part of love, but they do not want each other to sacrifice, and it is not suitable for their love. Marriage is not how they love each other, it is the yoke, and as long as they love each other, they will be together forever. They have more, they love each other who belong to the brave and ambitious and selfish in life. They know that they love each other, that's enough, even if they may never see each other again, they will always have each other in their hearts, he knows that he will always be there waiting for him. in your own way.
The impermanence of life, I always feel that I have to be cautious when watching QAF, but change is the most beautiful place. I didn't like the opening of the
first three seasons, but I loved the last two seasons. You have to watch every episode,
even if is wishful thinking, I think B and J are always together and have never been separated. They will be together in the end, both mentally and physically. They may not belong to each other, but they are together. (In the end, I was too deep into the play)
Love the last lyric (sex brings them together, and it is also the best way for them to express their love, the lyrics fully explain their state): You can't overcome your ambition, There is no perfect love in the world, everyone knows this, even though you have given up your ambitions for something beautiful, something new, or someone nice, we still lost to our ambitions in the end .
There is no perfect love in the world, but I, I still have hope, there is no perfect love between the prince and the prince, everyone knows this, ambition will defeat you and me, and separate each other... Beast, he still despises the world so much, he still has the most shining stage, he has not been tamed by the world, but the heart of this beast has already been tamed by Justin. Ahhh~~
This drama also allowed me to find a song that I like very much: "POSES", and Rufus Wainwright who sang it. I've been listening to this song for two consecutive nights, and it must have been hundreds of times. It always reminds me of B's lonely figure after failing to buy roses. He loves J so much, but he can't beat the moment when he can't express himself. What moved me the
most is that all the family, friendship and love in this play are so real. So indestructible, so deep feelings are the biggest attraction of this play, the relationship between everyone that seems easy to destroy but can't find flaws is my favorite place.
This is a play about love. Love has no obstacles.
Gay and mortal, we are all alike, part of love.
This is life
