Wonder Boy - Simon

It's too sweet, the whole film looks like an optimistic and inspirational chicken soup, the plot is too idealized, and there are not many things to think about. It’s like if you do something bravely, you will definitely succeed, everyone will support you, the family understands, the teachers support, and the only two students who make trouble in the cafeteria were arrested by the black teacher and the dean’s office. , replace the younger sister with the elder sister, isn't this "Miracle Boy"? This may not be the case in real life, and even dissatisfaction and incomprehension are the norm in reality, and the same-sex issue is even more so. This is the upper limit of this kind of film. The subject of homosexuality itself still has strong practical significance. The director may be out of sociality and reality for the so-called beauty and idealization of the story. Discrimination issues.

    I was moved by the scenes of Simon announcing his coming out of the closet on social networks and at home, and sitting on a Ferris wheel waiting for true love. He relied on his own courage and courage to defend his rights, pursue freedom, and gain respect. But I hope that one day, homosexuals do not need to defend their rights, pursue freedom, and be respected in this way, but enjoy the same rights, freedoms, respect.

    Correct prejudice with prejudice. The script is too childish

Love, Simon quotes

  • Ms. Albright: Don't "Hey, Ms. Albright" me. We're not friends. You're not going to braid my hair or paint my nails. Get your ass off the table now, you sweaty, hormonal virgins. You know what? You're about to be suspended for so long that by the time it's over, you're going to be the fat, bald, unhappily married, wildly mediocre nobodies you're destined to become.

    Spencer: You can't talk to us like that.

    Ms. Albright: Actually I can, 'cuz I just did. And you know why? Because you're just those two assholes who did that shitty thing in front of the whole school. And guess what? Nobody feels sorry for those assholes, especially me. Now walk. Mr. Worth's office. Now.

    Ms. Albright: [Grabbing speaker] Unh-uh. That's mine now. I'm'ma sell it, get my tubes tied.
