When it comes to the ambiguity between men, "Hawaii" is definitely the pinnacle

A few days ago, I released a "Taekwondo", which mentioned the classic gay movie "Hawaii". Since then, the backstage of Cheche's official account has been overwhelmed by the voice of "Hawaii", clang clang clang! This movie is coming to everyone today. Martin (Mateo Chiarino), a bereaved and lonely man, sleeps in the corner at night and goes to the nearby neighborhood to find work during the day. While looking for a temporary job, Martin meets Eugenio (Manuel Vignau), a childhood playmate. Neowi assisted Martin and persuaded his uncle to let Martin renovate the house during the summer. In the summer when the employer and the employee get along, the relationship between the two changes subtly. Each fell in love with the other, but looked forward and backward, unwilling to point out. So the two started a tug of war in which they tried each other and wanted to talk about it. The film is directed by Marco Berger, who won the Berlin Film Festival Teddy Bear Award for Absentence. Berger), the Argentine director's work last year was "Taekwondo" in the Spring Festival, pushing an erotic and seductive meat appreciation blockbuster. 1 [The pattern is not big, taste carefully] In common gay movies, the dramatic conflict is the disapproval of the family, the disapproval of the society, and the doubts about the protagonist's self-disposition, but "Hawaii" abandons all these problems, and only puts the men between men. The love resistance focuses on their lack of courage. But the problem of lack of courage also exists between heterosexuals. So watching this film, you will blur the boundaries of sexual orientation, and you will feel that everything happens so naturally. The feelings of the two men in the film are like seeds breaking through the ground and fruits falling in line with our cognitive "laws". This is just a simple love story, a love story that casts aside all realistic factors, a love story that breaks through the judgment system of heterosexual relationships. In a later interview, the director also said: "We are not obsessed with the problems of being recognized and accepted by the current gay community, but focus on exploring the nature of love, and put same-sex relationships in parallel with opposite-sex relationships." In the film, in order to Exploring the essence of love, the director focuses on depicting the germination and evolution of the emotions between the male protagonists, minimizing the identity gap and background difference between the two as much as possible. The story of "Hawaii" takes place in the height of summer in South America. Sunshine, manor, cicadas, shirts, these summer noises are very quiet in this film. A large number of empty shots are aimed at scenes such as forests, green spaces, rivers, window edges, swimming pools, etc., as well as the non-dialogue shots that appear many times in the film, making the film feel like a life documentary filmed with a handheld DV to a certain extent. The format of the film is not large, there are only two main actors, and the location is basically limited to a rural house. The director's shooting technique is very delicate, and the plot development is extremely slow. But this kind of slowness has an invisible attraction, enticing you to be reluctant to press the shortcut key, for fear of missing a subtle look or a secretly "mindful" action, enticing you to stare at the screen, watching How the plot develops. In short, this is a good movie with a small pattern, but it is worth savoring carefully. 2 [The Peak of Men's Ambiguity] In the hot weather, the atmosphere is extraordinarily quiet; under the tranquility, there is an ambiguous storm that is about to break out. One is a homeless man who sleeps in the wind and the other is a middle-class writer who owns a mansion. The love between these two men that you are going in and out, wanting to refuse and welcome, makes the audience off-screen jump around, but they are still on the screen. . Between Martin and Neo, Li Che guessed that Neo should be the first to get emotional, while Martin would slowly take care of Neo's kindness in the future. Passionate about it. From the beginning of the encounter, the black-bellied Neo began to create various opportunities for himself to get close to Martin's body. Get him a change of clothes, let him take a shower in the bathroom, invite him to swim with him, and seize every opportunity to peek at his body. There are two scenes in particular. One is that Neo pretends to let Martin change his underwear beside him at will, and then peeks at Martin's lower body through the mirror; one is that Martin's thigh is scratched, and Neo almost forcibly bandages the wound on Martin's thigh, He brought his face close to Martin's genitals; every time he saw this, Neo was so cute. It is clear that he is burning with lust, but he has designed himself to be a passive and innocent character. Seeing that he was passive and fruitless, Neo began to attack again. After taking a walk by the river, he took out his own organs to urinate in front of Martin; he cheated with Martin in the running competition, and said that his heart was not good, and put the opponent's hand on his chest to let the other party feel. I have to say that Martin is really hypocritical and a master of flirting with people. But whether it is passive seduction or active, Neo's feelings are always within the range of restraint, there is no clearness in his words, and there is no rush in his body. This kind of restraint is not unrelated to Neo's respect for Martin. Silly boy Martin was so excited by Neo that he finally surrendered his gun and couldn't help kissing Neo. Happiness came too suddenly, and Neo was stunned at the critical moment. He rejected Martin because he questioned Martin's kiss, and he thought that Martin treated him just as a hired hand and used his body to repay his employer. So he asked Martin, "Is it because of those paintings?" Facing Neo's doubts, Martin chose to leave. In the next few minutes of clips, we see Neo suffering and fidgeting. There are no lines, no soundtrack, only a close-up of the male protagonist's expression, but the audience can feel Neo's anxiety and urgency, living like a year. It wasn't until Neo saw "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" that he had discarded and the photo of him in it that he knew that Martin had already liked him. It turned out that I have long been used to each other's company. It turns out that I already like to waste time with you. It turns out that the most beautiful secret love is when I mustered up the courage to confess to you, only to find out that you have already quietly fallen in love with me. Compared with the movie "Taekwondo", which also talks about men's ambiguousness, Li Che prefers this "Hawaii". If the score, "Taekwondo" I give 6.5 points, "Hawaii" 8. 5 points. In the former, the characters are too complex, noisy and noisy; in the latter, the protagonist is prominent, comfortable and quiet. It is also ambiguous. The former is too deliberate about the presentation of the body, while the latter has scenes of male genitals, but it makes you feel erotic but not lustful. 3 [Two Pineapples and Hawaii] The story does not take place in Hawaii, why is the title the same? Martin begins by saying "pineapple," which also brings up the movie's title: Hawaii. This is the foreshadowing of the director. In the film, when Martin's kiss is questioned by Neo, he leaves sadly. Neo, who lost Martin's company, suffered from inner torment. He waited for Martin to return to the house to help him renovate. He went to the corner of the wall where Martin was sleeping alone, but he was still missing. Suddenly, the two pineapples that Martin said echoed in his ears, and he woke up. He rummaged through the boxes and found the slides from his childhood. The slideshow of two pineapples, with "63 Honolulu Hawaii (Hawaii)" written in the middle of the photo, is a symbol of their childhood affection. Pineapples are native to northern Argentina. Two pineapples are very rare and grow together in the sun. Relying on the slide of "Two Pineapples", Neo retrieved Martin. Both of them understood that they were like those two pineapples, accompanying each other by their side. In fact, whether it is "Pineapple" or "Hawaii", it can be regarded as a token of the friendship between the two, and it is a catalyst for eliminating the last estrangement between the two, confessing their feelings, and embracing each other. "Hawaii" was made in 2013. In that year, there was also a gay masterpiece, "Stranger by the Lake", which was previously pushed by the official account and won the LGBT Palme d'Or at the 66th Cannes Film Festival. Be careful, you don't have to use your life to make an appointment! Fans say "Stranger by the Lake" and "Hawaii" are definitely half sea, half fire in 2013's LGBT movies. The former magnifies sex infinitely, while the latter runs ambiguous throughout the film. In Li Che's view, the air of "Hawaii" is full of ambiguity, full of love and care, warmth and kindness. Want to make my heart surging, love makes my heart tender, so that the two kisses in the whole film are extraordinarily charming and precious.

    Such a fresh and beautiful little Russian guy, from some angles, really looks like Depp, and the grievances at any time and place are really heartbreaking. . And the male protagonist's house is so big, what would he do with a bed as short as that in the utility room! And no sex scenes! ! ! It's a pity! The film was made by the director after crowdfunding twice before reaching the final amount. I didn't expect the completion to be so good! It's a pity that I didn't participate in this project after realizing it.
