Come to my back seat, I'll show you the world

I have been cute posters a few days ago, and I finally read it today, so excited~~~

The story takes place in a green summer, about two boys and a girl, a pair of childhood sweethearts, and a pair of unspoken lovers. The intersection of leo is in leo, but leo can't see it.

The tone of the whole film is small and fresh, with a transparent and clean, and a little warm yellow halo, which makes people feel sweet, sweet but not greasy, it is the kind of smell on the person you like, which is refreshing and sweet.

After watching it, I couldn't help but compare it with the short film. I like both, and I can't give up either one, but there are a few details that I want to compare.
1. The length of the film is extended to one and a half hours, the narrative structure is more complete, and the character relationships are described more clearly. For example, the description of leo's family situation, the love given by parents is too heavy, making leo breathless and life is also very difficult. Insipid, apart from Gi, a childhood playmate, he doesn't have any special friends in the class, so Gab's appearance broke the original peaceful life, or it was Gab's appearance that gave Leo a chance to change himself. Before , Leo, because he was fed up with the protection of his family and the unfriendliness of his classmates, started his own rebellious period. He deliberately disappeared and did not go home.
Gab's appearance first made him feel a kind of gentleness, kindness and equality. Sitting behind him, he didn't complain that the ticking sound was annoying, but gently patted him on the shoulder and looked for him. Borrow the eraser, accompany him and Gi to go home from school, do homework together, etc.
It was this kindness and tenderness that started them as friends.

2. Compared with the short film, I think the plot is more complete, and the details are more grasped. The subtle changes in the psychology of the three people can be experienced more carefully, and I am more moved. The three children Really kind, gentle, cute, and cute. In fact, no matter whether it is between boys or girls, my attitude towards friendship is always one-on-one. I don't like threesomes. Feeling Gi's mood, my childhood sweetheart and best friend was suddenly taken away by someone else. In fact, I think all the signs show that Gi likes Leo, but in the end Leo fell ill. She went to see him and the two sat on the bed. , reconciled as before, and said sincerely: I think you are a very cute couple (with a bloody face), the best friendship is just that.
As for how leo fell in love with Gab, I also find it very interesting. It reminds me of a very good film "Unreachable" the year before last. The rich man who was obsessed with skydiving was paralyzed from the neck down due to an accident, so he hired a full-time escort with a high salary. Among the many candidates, he unexpectedly chose an inexperienced gangster who had just been released from prison. The people around him didn’t understand, but the answer he gave was: He always forgets the fact that I am paralyzed. That’s what I want. There is no mercy, no special treatment, and no discrimination. Such two people with very different backgrounds, who are masters and servants, get along unexpectedly well. At midnight he fell ill, and he pushed him out the door to share a cigarette on the street. Make a bet together and act to trick the police into leading the way for them who are speeding. Avoid everyone and go skydiving in the mountains, and experience the sense of conquest of overlooking the beauty of the earth from a high altitude. He helped him break the paralyzed inferiority complex and successfully embraced the beauty.
In fact, what Leo needs here is to treat him as a normal person first. Gab often forgets that he is blind when talking to him, takes him to the cinema with him to watch movies, even sneaks to watch a lunar eclipse with him in the middle of the night, teaches him to dance, makes him Exposure to music other than classical music, etc., completely awakened his life, all of which Leo had never had in his previous life. These magical and wonderful experiences made Leo happy and made him pay attention to his heart. "Looking" the world, to feel the world, even at the end of the film, when the two boys were on the bicycle, when the camera slowly moved down, we were surprised to see that it was Leo who was riding the bicycle, he himself once said that forever It's impossible to ride a bike, but Gab made him experience it all, and I think that's what makes leo so excited.


3. But there is a small detail in the short film, I like it very much, that is, Gab is at Leo's house. When I came back from the toilet, I found that Leo was sniffing his breath on his coat. It was very warm. Later, during class, Gab said that I forgot my coat. In your house, in fact, I think it was Gab's intention, haha~~ so cute.
4. I really like the music in every place~~~ It would be nice to have the original soundtrack.

In love, you and I are both blind, and both need a Gab to hold us and show us the wonderful and fascinating world.

The Way He Looks quotes

  • Giovana: [watching Karina meet Gabriel outside the boys' bathroom] She's such a slut, isn't she? There. She's made her move. She is all friendly, talking to him, playing with her hair. She touched his shoulder, Leo. And his hand! She doesn't even know if he's washed it.

  • Carlos: I was thinking about the exchange program you talked about.

    Leonardo: Really?

    Carlos: Really, but you can't talk while you're shaving.

    Leonardo: Sorry.

    Carlos: I'm trying to understand your desire to go so far away. I think it's natural, especially at your age, to want to see other places, meet new people, make other friends. I think it's normal, but I also think it's very natural to fight with your parents. I was like that, too, but it's too extreme to leave the country to run away from the fights. You know... I'm thinking about talking to your mother about the program, but first I need to understand if you want to go for the right reasons. Do you agree, Leo? Do you agree?

    Leonardo: Can I talk now?
