In the album commemorating Leslie Cheung's continued love, I heard Tony Leung's conversation with him.
"Why don't we start from scratch"
Let Li Yaohui and He Baorong wander from one end to the other, opening and closing.
For Li Yaohui, these words were very lethal to him. He and He Baorong have been together for a long time, and they have been on and off in the middle, but every time he hears He Baorong say this, he will always start over with him.
Start all over", a seductive sentence, whether it is for Li Yaohui or the person in love. A few simple words seem to have a kind of magic power, as long as you are willing, it seems that everything has returned to the original point.
This is a gay movie, I don't know how many people were accepted, liked, and even deeply loved when it was released at that time.
At the beginning, the two of them had a lingering and slutty sex scene, and I was so shy when I saw it.
He Baorong, a "tourist" who loves freedom, lives in a foreign country today, and lives in his hometown tomorrow. Intense publicity, fragility and blurredness, drunkenness, and wanton squandering everything. He is persistent, innocent, and dares to pay for love, like sweet poison, which makes people painful but sweet.
Li Yaohui, a delicate and quiet "store owner", has been waiting for his arrival from beginning to end. The image of a good man who works hard and never complains, loves He Baorong without expecting anything in return. At the same time, he is also good at expressing his love. There is a scene that has always moved me. While wrapped in a blanket dragging the sick body to cook for him.
The shades are great. This is a film that tells a story with color. Black and white, cool and warm tones are just right. The lens is great. Close-up, phantom, panorama.
In such an era, Wong Kar Wai's films brought us a love story about He Baorong and Li Yaohui, beautiful but accompanied by sadness.
