The poster is very "Springtime", which makes people unconsciously raise their expectations. I won't say much about the problem of face blindness, and it's not a big problem, although my solution is to watch the first 5 minutes three times.
If you really want to evaluate it, it's hard not to compare it to "Who fell in love with him first", "The Blue Door" and "Call Me By Your Name".
Before Zhang Jiahan asked the priest exhausted and heartbroken, the "potential" of the movie was still there, plus points for photography and performance. But I don't understand the phrase "Do I love a little less?" Why use a roar.
The expression of this line can be said to be the dividing line of the collapse of the texture of the whole film, which directly leads to everything that the whole film wants to express, accuse, and question, and the strength is cut in half.
The second half of the movie is full of strong conflicts such as fights, quarrels, and confrontations. I do not deny that strong conflicts can attract attention and are also a powerful tool to adjust the rhythm, but once the excess is over, it will inevitably be a bit bloody. The so-called loud voice and the so-called sound, the so-called four liang dialing a thousand pounds, compared with "Please call me by your name", the judgment is made.
This makes one have to admit a strange thing: sometimes silence is much better than ranting.
The handling at the end was also quite disappointing. Bird reunited with Jiahan 30 years later and said, "I actually loved you at that time." I thought the director would look back at some details of the past from Bird's perspective here. What pre-buried burdens are there to solve the mystery at this moment, similar to "" "Call Me By Your Name" in Oliver later says "I touch you first when I play baseball", but nothing. In this way, whether it is "love but can't" or "love but can't", all regrets are only fixed in the past, without continuation or sublimation.
It is said that 10 minutes of this film were deleted. After reading the deleted part, I felt that it was neither redundant nor had much to do with the scale.
Overall, it's a pity that three stars are not enough, but two stars are more than enough.
