I watched "Brokeback Mountain" a long time ago, and was completely moved by the love between Ennis and Jack. At that time, I thought that love really has no gender boundaries. As long as it is true love, the other party's gender is the same as you, so what? Until today, I came across a similar movie I love you Phillip Morris again. At first I thought it was a lighthearted comedy, probably because of Jim Carrey, plus the movie poster with a sense of comedy. After more than an hour, I found that I was watching a movie with tears in my eyes, or in the words of other netizens, it was a "Shawshank with a broken back".
I Love you PM does remind me of The Shawshank Redemption, because the ending also uses Figaro's wedding. It's a comedy when Steven, who is estimated to have an IQ of 160 or more, escapes prison multiple times in different and bizarre ways. But when I saw the love story between Steven and Phillip, I thought it was a touching movie that would make chicks like me cry. They met for the first time in Steven's first prison, and the two chatted with each other in the library. The director cut the next scene very romantically, describing how the two wrote letters to each other in two different warehouses. The other party communicates, and love is born in this way. People who have been in love must never forget the time when they first started falling in love, watching two big men on the screen, densely writing stories about themselves on small notes, and then eagerly waiting for each other's next letter, Who can tell me, only the love between the opposite sex will move you? In order to make Phillip happy, Steven beat the guy who often quarrelled with Phillip to sleep; Phillip spent $10 to buy a piece of music to dance with Steven in the barn. They watch movies together, blow bubbles together, blow trumpets to each other... The good times don't last long, and Steven is going to be transferred to another prison for buying a murder and beating people. Phillip chased, ran, and shouted each other's names. He never went to the playground because he didn't fit in there, but to say goodbye to Steven, he fiercely said to a guard, open the door, I'm going to the playground. That part was really touching, and tears were about to come out. Who wants to be separated from the person they are passionately in love with?
Later, Steven was released from prison. He disguised himself as a lawyer, and through a series of fraudulent methods, Phillip was released early, and the movie was only 1/3 over. Steven is still living the same life as before, relying on fraud for a living. He cheated a CFO position in a large company, and then this position has brought Phillip a good life. In Steven's own words, "I was born to live a life of lies, and if there were no lies, I wouldn't be myself". In exchange for such a lifestyle, he was imprisoned again, and he was also involved in Phillip being imprisoned again, and then escaped from prison through a crime with high IQ... This cycle N times, plus once in history, After a more patient and bitter plan than Andy in Shawshank, he managed to escape again, disguised as a lawyer for the second time, to help Phillip bail.
When Steven, who was suffering from high blindness, received a call from Phillip, tears of victory flowed from his eyes, and Phillip on the other end of the phone was crying. And when Phillip knew the truth, he gave Steven a loud, unexpected slap, and then he touched his face distressedly and said you lost a lot of weight. I know Phillip doesn't agree with all of Steven's blackmail, but he does love him. Afterwards Steven said: Although I live in a lie, but under all the lies, there is one real thing, and that is my love for you. Jim Carrey has been stereotyped, and no matter what role he plays, he will give people a sense of joy, even if he is standing there and saying such touching words at this time, it is no exception. Even so, the scene was very touching.
At the beginning of the movie, it tells you that this is a true story. It is afraid that you will not believe it, and it adds the sentence it really did. It seems that the director is afraid that you will think this is impossible after watching it, so it emphasizes that it is true. Indeed, the real Steven has been under surveillance 23 hours a day since his last arrest, while Phillip was released from prison in 2006. This is a pair of real lovers. There is no happy ever after at the end of the movie. All the pursuits and escapes in the movie are handled by comedy. Even the sky in the movie is always sunny and white. At the end of the movie, Steven was photographed alone in prison, smiling. In his mind, the image of Phillip appeared. He owns Phillip.
The two main characters have to be commended. Jim Carrey's almost crazy performance and Ewan McGregor, who was praised by other netizens as "Looking back and smiling," Ewan McGregor, especially the latter, performed really well. It is estimated that after this film, I have another YY object. Originally I shouldn't compare BBM with this I love you PM, but compared to the former's patience, restraint, and subtlety, the latter shouts out to the world "I love you, I love you, I love you!"
Love ! , To put it bluntly, it is dopamine, as long as you are in love, there is no gender boundary.
