One of the best gay movies I've seen

A very literary and artistic movie, only two days of weekend time, but it can make people feel the emotions of this pair of CPs from knowing each other to falling in love and parting, making people forget that this is only a person who has known each other for two days. There are many things that this movie leaves people's aftertastes, such as: the recording of the two, the situation and changes of gays in society after making love, and the male protagonist's careful consideration of the society from the beginning to the final separation from his beloved However, he was met with sharp eyes when the anti-gay people acted unfriendly. From the beginning, he did not make intimate contact with the person he liked in public to hug and kiss the person he loved when parting at the train station. This series of changes makes people feel no sense of disobedience, but it is very hearty, and it also makes us believe that when the love is strong, maybe you don't care about other people's eyes at all. I really like the character of the male protagonist. It is the standard of a boyfriend that I want. Quiet, restrained, reserved, at home, gentle and affectionate, caring about other people's feelings and tolerant of other people's faults. The tape that Glenn left him, when I think of the ending song, it is estimated that everyone has an inexplicable sadness, and the melody of this song really fits the scene, which can be said to bring the film to a successful end. This movie is bound to be one of those same-sex movies that I will occasionally revisit in the future.

    Of course, it cannot be compared with the time before sunrise and sunset. The dialogue is not as attractive and moving as the former. There are too many sex scenes, which take away the role of the movie, but fortunately, the performance is invested and the feelings are sincere.

    My heart melted when I saw it, and my cheeks flowed all over.

Weekend quotes

  • Glen: It's like when you've had the same friends for too long, they become like - Everything becomes cemented.

    Russell: What? And that's a bad thing, is it?

    Glen: Of course, it's a bad thing. I don't want to be in fucking concrete, thank you very much.

    Glen: It's like they won't let you, they won't let you be any version of yourself except an old version, or the version that they want you to be.

  • Glen: Look. Straight people like us as long as we conform, we behave by their little rules. Imagine your friends if you suddenly started getting all, but really, political about being a fag, or you got suddenly, like, camp and swishy or talked about rimming all the time.

    Russell: [interrupting] But that's not what I'm like, is it? That's not who I am.

    Glen: Well, just trust me: They like it as long as we don't shove it down their throats.

    Russell: Okay, well, why should I just shove it down their throats?

    Glen: Because they shove it down our throats all the time: Being straight. Straight story lines on television, everywhere - in books, on billboards, magazines, everywhere. But, ah, the gays, the gays -

    [gasps]

    Glen: "We mustn't upset the straights. Shh. Watch out. Straights are coming.

    [lisping]

    Glen: Let's not upset them. Let's hide in our little ghettoes. Let's not hold hands. Let's not kiss in the street, no."
