LGBTQ: The road to self-redemption is a long way to go!

A movie that I have been looking forward to for a long time, probably from the summer vacation last year, the resources finally came out on the second day after I just came home from winter vacation, but in order to give an expectation to the beginning of the school, my friends and I endured it until today, We both watched it in a private cinema! ! ! It can be described as twists and turns! Next, let’s talk about my movie viewing experience, aside from the plot, the whole movie watching process, my mood is: expectation, excitement, doubt, depression, discomfort, relief! First of all, I look forward to the plot of the film (after all, it is going to go to the Oscars), and the performances of the actors (Taylor's boyfriend, my poke master, Nicole Kidman). Can you expect it? The second is excitement (at the beginning of the film, I was very excited when Poke Ye sang and even appeared); then there was doubt. At the beginning of the film, I began to be curious about foreign religious beliefs, although I was very interested in Islam. I have a little understanding of the teachings against homosexuality, but the social environment and religious atmosphere background that is so critical of LGBTQ in the film, I have doubts about its ideological culture, because I don’t know much about it; as the plot unfolds , The memories interspersed in it, I probably know the context! My thoughts gradually became clear, but I began to feel that watching the film was depressing, whether it was "Refuge" The project is still everyone's behavioral response, the moral baptism ceremony, and the trial struggle and resistance of individual team members, Cameron's suicide, and even the plot of the male protagonist being raped, and even the male protagonist's deceptive behavior after he first came out of the closet. Wanting to change myself, other people’s discrimination against same-sex in the bathroom, etc., all started to make me breathless. In addition, the painting style was flat, there was no orgasm, and the music was slow, and I began to feel depressed (my little friend yawned at this time) ! Then I started to discuss the situation of gays and lesbians with my friends. The situation in the film is actually a microcosm of the reality of most LGBTQs. I remembered some gay movies I watched before. Do you think there is more acceptance of this group? After all, the energy conveyed by the film is influential, and it is also for hope. Thinking of the real situation of some people, I suddenly feel very uncomfortable! Finally, when the film was about to end, I suddenly realized that what the film wanted to convey was a concept of self-redemption. Throughout the past gay romantic comedies, the male protagonist finally got the support of his parents, the company of friends, and the support of his parents. The acceptance of the environment, and finally the acquisition of love~ Look, what a positive force! But the male protagonist in this film is indeed a little different from the people in the sanctuary. He dares to question and challenge the authority of religion. He tries to change the minds of his parents and peers. He fails, but he succeeds in his own challenge. Now, the moment the male protagonist left the shelter, I felt very brave. Of course, the support of my mother was also an important force for his final departure. The phrase "shame on you and shame on me".. When I heard it, I was so moved! At the same time, the mother said that a white lie is for the good of the child, knowing that it is helping at the cost of harm, because I believe in God, but if it only brings harm, then it is wrong! Just like at the beginning, the male protagonist likes to stick his hand out of the car window. The mother is worried and says that there has been an accident reported. This is a white lie! But how many lies are well-intentioned? Just as religion advocates that all men are created equal, why is it so unequal to homosexuals? So I think it is not religious beliefs that taboo homosexuality, but that religious people taboo homosexuality! Just like the outbreak of war, does religion advocate war? No, what religion advocates is friendship, kindness, and equality for all living beings. It is people who start wars, and some people who use religion as a means and tool to seek benefits! At the end of the film, the male protagonist did not succeed in changing others, but he changed himself. Maybe the shelter project is still there, but the male protagonist dominates his future. He returned to campus life and partyed with friends. There is no difference, after all, does he have physical and mental illness, just because of different sexual orientation, life is the same! What the male protagonist can do is to convey the story to more people, let more people know the real situation of LGBTQ, and fight for their human rights! It's a process of extending self-salvation to others! Having said so much, I think the plot is 8 points, and the cast and acting are full points haha! And poke the song! To be honest, after watching it, my heart is super blocked. I quickly chat with my friends, talk about it, write my own movie reviews, and present my thoughts and thoughts. It is also a kind of venting! Good night! Tomorrow I have to go to the library to do my homework!
