But no one can replace

This is not a gay movie. A while ago, I watched "Little Home" in bed with a close friend of the same sex. After reading it, I always felt a little weird, and I just realized it after I checked it online. I have to sigh at the Japanese people's forbearance and delicacy, holding a deep feeling, trembling and walking on thin ice. Afraid that she will be unhappy, afraid that she will know, and cling to such a secret all the time and grow old alone.

I have always believed that there is always a different feeling among the friends that people make when they are most down. I can't tell the truth, but no one can replace it. Rizzo gave Jon a home when he was homeless and befriended him when he was alone. But Jon didn't complete Rizzo's home. Who said that there is a small broken lamp, a small bed that can curl up and sleep soundly, and a covered concrete house is home? In my opinion, it's just a house, not a home. I don't know much about friendship between men, but I think there is some similarity to the kind of forbearance between Japanese lesbians.
The boyfriend and his high school friend said something while reminiscing about the old days for dinner: Buddy, brotherhood is all in this glass of wine. This sentence is enough.
And Rizzo and Jon's "old friend" is enough.
When Jon hugged the deceased Rizzo like he was protecting a child on the bus, the expression on his face that he wanted to cry but didn't dare to cry was very similar to that of a little boy who was rudely told not to cry after his beloved toy was taken away. boy.
It's not gay love, but it's irreplaceable.

Midnight Cowboy quotes

  • Joe Buck: I like the way I look. Makes me feel good, it does. And women like me, goddammit. Hell, the only one thing I ever been good for is lovin'. Women go crazy for me, that's a really true fact! Ratso, hell! Crazy Annie they had to send her away!

    Ratso Rizzo: Then, how come you ain't scored once the whole time you been in New York?

  • [At the gravesite of his father]

    Ratso Rizzo: He was even dumber than you. He couldn't even write his own name. "X," that's what it ought to say on that goddamn headstone, one big lousy "X". Just like our dump. Condemned by order of City Hall.
