Dignity for love

Misunderstood love is colder than death. Breathing is heavy or even difficult after watching it.
why berlin?! That decadent ruin made me even more love for Germany (this is a long story, so I won't put it here)
at first glance, I thought it was an opera, so vivid, surreal, jagger's The bloody mouth that fell from the sky really frightened me. When the people investigating comrades in the Nazis came in, they were followed by a group of demons dancing wildly. Among the happy children in the rubble, one of them wore a sailor hat - did the director deliberately We feel that sunset-like vibe of the sailors in Fog Harbor?
It wasn't until Max hit the wire and died that I didn't understand why he changed into hors clothes, for dignity and unalterable love.
Two scenes where the coincidence makes me shudder: Rudy is asked to smash his glasses, and horses is asked to throw away his hat and retrieve it. At this time, their dignity has been brutally deprived and trampled to nothing, but this further reflects their true love! Who said that love does not exist, only the evidence of love exists!?!
The scene of soul intercourse is really true Very platonic...even if the noon sun is so ruthless...the same embrace in the snow, as if to see the transfer of heat, even if it is blocked by the freezing air, even if this love can't even think about it.
In retrospect, more than half of the whole film was boringly moving stones in the quarry. Step by step, the endless heavy footsteps and the white quarry reminded me of Garry and Elephant of Gus Van Sant, and finally max came. The last step, identity recognition, is at the cost of death, proclaiming the sanctity of dignity with the attitude of an immortal.
The soundtrack is philip glass!!!! How come there is no disc?!!!! Seriously, some parts I thought were arvo part.

    I don't know why I remembered "The Scarlet Letter". Rather than completely depicting comradeship, it is better to say that this kind of feeling is purely to fight against an extreme inhumane distortion, so the spiritual significance of this love is more important. It seems more suitable to use the stage play style for performance. Since the middle and late stages, the two protagonists have been constantly moving stones and communicating, which is a bit dull. However, it must be admitted that the paragraph of the two people's "god cross" is indeed very magical

    Watched two films in a row about the Nazi persecution of homosexuals, and this one is really better. The special way of love in a special environment is actually an extreme condensation of reality, but I really don't understand the dancer's love at the beginning. "Persecuting others" is really human nature, and there is no need for "hate" as a reason!
