The initial impulse to watch this film came from a poster on the Internet .On the poster, two boys stand side by side, with bright smiles on their faces, without any impurities in the sun, they look so quiet and pure, behind the bustling and cluttered street market and those bustling and expressionless people in the street market. . It's a very ordinary picture, but there are some luminous things in it that are attracting and tempting me.
At that time, the full version of the online movie was not up, so I could only watch some videos on Tudou.com. I can't understand Thai There are no subtitles, the picture quality is rough, and the plot is fragmented, but it can't spoil my love for this movie in the slightest. A beautiful face, as well as the sadness, pain, and ambiguous emotions shared by all human beings... Nature is not good at speculating about the changes and development of things, so I really can't understand the plot of the movie, but my mood is still fluctuated or even shocked by some things.
The second time I watched this movie, I downloaded the full version of the movie directly on Thunderbolt, and the most important thing was that it had subtitles.
I felt a little surprised, some anticipation, and a little solemn. I sat by the computer and watched it for two and a half hours. When I got down, I felt that the time was still too short. At the end of the play, Mew couldn't help crying to the puppet. At that time, he didn't have any warning, and the tears ran out of his eyes.
The third time I watched this movie was late at night, and my roommates When you fall asleep, the whole space and time belong to you. Sitting next to a computer and savoring it is the ultimate enjoyment.
Shortly after the movie opened, a soothing and pleasant piano sound came from a simple room. , Sitting beside the quaint old piano is a little boy mew and his grandma. The sound of the piano is flowing out from under grandma's fingers. Mew asked: " Grandma
, why do you like to play this song so much?"
Staring at the older photos on the wall, she said, "Because your grandpa used to play this tune for me."
Grandma then asked, "mew, do you want to be able to play the piano like grandpa when you grow up?"
"Grandma, is it useful to play the piano?"
"It's useful. Playing the piano can convey emotions. Your grandpa used to play the piano to convey emotions to grandma."
"Oh, what kind of emotion did grandpa convey to grandma?"
Grandma didn't answer directly, and said, "Listen." The slow piano sounded again. The
boy thought of something and shouted out happily: "I see, grandpa wants to tell grandma, he misses you." The
corner of grandma's mouth showed a smile. And his thoughts drifted to some unknown place Mew
has a good friend and neighbor tong.
Tong fights for mew at school and gets bruised. Tong
gave me a puppet as a gift for Christmas, but because of an accident, the puppet lost its nose.
Christmas Eve, at church At the ceremony, both mew and tong acted on stage. Mew played the angel of good news, and tong played the little sheep on the shepherd's pasture. That night, grandma took a photo for them, and it was the only photo of them together. Tong lives in
a devout Christian family, with a strict father and a loving mother.
Tong has a sister who is very affectionate and lost during a trip.
Because of this incident, the family is in chaos. The faith collapses, his father is alcoholic and sick, and his mother Overworked.
Tong's parents decided to move.
When Tong's car slowly left, Mew came out of the corner with a kind of pain in his face. Tong looked back from the back window and saw Mew was wiping tears with his hands ...
five or six years passed in a blink of an eye. The two little boys were all grown up.
Mew became the lead singer in a school band. His CDs were selling well in the market. The manager of the record company talked to him and told him that he The song is good, but there is one more thing that needs to be added, love.
Mew was stunned after listening to it, he didn't understand what love was, because he had never been in love.
In fact, at that time, Ying, a beautiful girl in his neighbor's house, had been secretly in love with him. Ying half-jokingly and half-truly proposed to be mew's girlfriend, mew didn't care, let's see.
Tong is studying in another school and has a very beautiful girlfriend. But his relationship with his girlfriend has always been cold.
Tong went to the store to buy a CD but met mew by chance.
Mew promised to give tong CD. The two stayed After contacting them, they broke up in a hurry.
They met tong again, which brought inspiration to mew. That night, I wrote a song full of love - peers.
Mew asked tong to go to school to watch their band training. It was too late to meet up Before the car, Tong stayed at Mew's house.
The two slept in the same bed.
Tong asked: "Mew, how have you been alone in the past few years?"
"Lonely and scared."
"Why?"
"When I was young , Lonely is because I don't have friends, I grow up lonely because I'm more lonely than having no friends."
Tong stared at mew with some confusion.
Mew's eyes went deep into thought. He continued: "When grandma died, I often thought, if We really love a person, can we accept the fact that he died one day. Parting is part of life, we all know it. But can we let it go? We really love a person and are not afraid of him Away from us? …and also, we have to accept that no matter where we are, the people we love are no longer around—” After a pause, mew continued, “I’ve been alone all these years. The one who came over..."
Tong looked at mew with pity, didn't say anything, just stretched out his hand and hugged mew tightly.
Tong's house held a party, and mew brought the whole band to perform.
At the meeting, mew publicly sang the song composed by Tong for the first time. The new song "Walking Together".
"Would you believe if this song was made for you?
Maybe it's not as beautiful and touching as other songs . You
know that love songs
can't be created without love,
but for you, my inspiration is endless .
... every
time
your love shines on my heart I see hope
that there's a lot of truth in love
I've been trying to find the meaning of love in the past
but recently I just found out that
love is the moment you come close to me
If life is a beautiful melody you It 's the moving lyrics that
echo in my heart for a long time
...
"
In the eyes of the two people, the crowd slowly retreated, and time and space began to condense. Only the melody was flowing, and some unnamed emotions began in the eyes of the two people. Breeding and spreading entanglement...
After the banquet, Tong and Mew sat on the stone bench outside the courtyard and chatted.
Tong asked Mew: "The song is very good, how did you write it?"
Mew replied: "If you don't have Tong, I wrote it I can't come out of this song." He added, "How do you feel after listening to it?"
Tong paused for a long time, then hugged mew, his voice was low and said to himself: "Indescribable!"
Tong kissed mew gently .I
never thought that the kiss between two boys could be so tender, so lingering, and so natural.
The scene of Mew and tong's kiss was seen by Tong's mother.
The next day, Tong's mother went to mew alone, hoping that he would be tong for tong. For the sake of the future, I can break up with tong.
When mew was chatting with tong's mother, ying was eavesdropping on the outside.
After learning about mew, ying was heartbroken, and ran back to the room crying, and posted pictures of mew on the wall. It was torn to shreds.
Mew went to Ying's house to ask Ying the meaning of a sentence in Chinese, and stumbled upon a large box of pictures of himself hidden under Ying's bed. Mew was stunned.
"What does that song mean?"
"If there is love, there is hope!"
"Ying, do you have any hope?"
"My hope is that we both have hope!" " Ying
, we will always be good friends."
Sad. But also a little relieved.
After talking to Tong's mother, mew didn't know how to face Tong, so he chose to escape.
Tong couldn't contact mew for several days, and was going to find him at his house, but was stopped by his mother , only then did I know that my mother went to mew. Tong was very depressed and ran to a friend's house to play. A few friends began to question Tong because of Tong 's
indifference to his girlfriend these days.
"Tong, are you gay?"
The first time he encountered this word, tong felt at a loss. He scolded "eight mother" and ran out in a panic.
Ying chased out to see tong, but tong misunderstood that ying was spreading the matter between him and mew among his friends, so he He was full of anger on Ying.
"You really want to know if I'm gay, right?" Then he kissed Ying's neck.
Ying started to struggle, but then stopped. On the
contrary, Tong suddenly realized that he felt a little bit about the girl's body. Not at all.
Tong collapsed all over. He was as fragile as a newborn baby, hugging Ying's thigh and crying bitterly, asking again and again "Ying, am I gay?"
Ying comforted Tong's head with his hand, The answer: "It's okay, it's okay, it will always get better."
Tong returned home, his father's condition deteriorated and he was admitted to the hospital, and his mother alone supported the burden of the
family. In front of him, he understood that he was faced with a choice.
When laying out the Christmas tree, Tong held two dolls, a boy and a girl, and asked his mother, "Mom, where should I hang it?"
His mother stared at him and said something else: "When you grow up, you should make your own decisions."
After thinking about it, Tong handed the female puppet to his mother and hung the male puppet on the Christmas tree After
seeing tong's practice, my mother smiled comfortably . Tong
's smile was bitter and helpless.
Tong saw the same puppet he gave me in the store, and bought his nose specially.
On Christmas Eve, tong's girlfriend donut asked tong to go out to play.
Mew had a concert in Siam Square.
When tong saw mew singing the new song "Walking Together" written for him on the big TV screen in the road, he turned around and followed Donut said: "I can't go out with you tonight."
"Why?"
"Because, we can't be together anymore."
Donut left in a fit of anger.
Tong smiled. Then he turned and ran towards Siam Square.
Ying was waiting there long ago, she brought tong to the scene of mew singing. She stared
at tong and focused on the side of mew singing infatuated, Ying's mouth was bitter, but she knew that she should let go.
She held tong's hand and squeezed it away The crowd went to the front desk. Then they let go and left alone. When they got outside, they couldn't help crying. After
Mew finished singing, he and his friends from the band were about to leave when Tong suddenly stopped him from behind.
"Mew, tonight's performance is really good. Not bad."
"Anything other than good?" His expression was a little expectant.
Tong paused for a moment, then made up his mind and said, "mew, I don't think we can be together yet, but that doesn't mean I don't love it. You."
Mew's face darkened suddenly, he lowered his head, and when he lifted it up, he was already smiling.
Tong took out the puppet's nose from his pocket and handed it to mew.
"What is this?"
"A Christmas present for you."
Mew said goodbye to tong, and couldn't help but look back every few steps, always with a faint but forbearing smile on his face.
Mew returned home, put his nose I inserted it on top of the puppet from the past. Then I started to cry, like a wronged child who was abandoned in the wilderness and couldn't find a way back. The music started and the movie came to an end... It
's a movie full of regrets.
Mamma loves grandma very much, but she can only keep an old house, sitting by the piano alone and reminiscing about the past...
Mew loves grandma very much, and facing grandma's final departure, she can only kneel in front of the mourning hall and looks helpless And lost...
Ying loves mew very much, but in the end, he can only choose to let go and leave...
Tong and mew are in love with each other, but in the face of their family and their own responsibilities, they can only say "We still can't." Being together doesn't mean that I don't love you." Such helpless pain...
Tong originally had a warm and happy family, but because of the loss of his sister, the family eventually became fragmented
...
Maybe life is full of these Regret, so we have so much deep memory for the lost past, we know how to cherish and care for what we have now, and we have such enthusiastic and optimistic vision and outlook for the future that we have not got.
The story is exactly Because it is full of regrets, it is so beautiful in itself.
A lot of people think this movie is a very strange movie because it is about the love between two boys. But I think it is a fairly traditional classic movie. Just as PCHY, who plays mew in the film, insists that "Love in Siam" is not a "gay movie", he describes the film as a "movie of love", except for the "gay love" between Mew and Tong In the film, Tong and his mother, Mew and his grandmother's "parent-child love", Tong's family and his missing sister June's "family love", Ying's "secret love" for Mew, etc. are all selfless "love". And "love" is what everyone is looking for all their lives, but in fact love is everywhere.
To paraphrase "Ye Run" director Xu Ligong said in his comment on "Ye Run": "In my world, there is only true love, no gender; gender is only a difference in physical structure, and there is no distinction between sexuality and spirituality. So I don't want to say that "Night Run" is a gay movie, I think it is a movie about love. Love transcends gender." Then here I also want to say, actually, "Love is in Siam" It is a movie of love.
Everyone thinks the ending of the story is a tragedy, but I would rather understand it like this: Five or six years ago, Tong left helplessly, and Mew slowly walked out of the corner with a stern expression on his face. Sad tears; today, five or six years later, tong and mew meet again and develop a love that transcends gender, and then tong leaves again helplessly, leaving mew crying helplessly to the puppet. Then, in the future five or six years later, will it be possible for fate to arrange for them to meet again, and then what will be another scene. I don't know -
or maybe, tong and mew can't cross the lifeline anymore, tong meets another person, a man or a woman, and then walks hand in hand with him or her for the rest of the long journey in life, and mew will also Meet another person, maybe a man or a woman, then fall in love again, life burns again...
The movie just shows us a process in mew and tong's life, just a process. As for the ending, the movie leaves a blank , Let the viewers free to compose and create.
What kind of ending is not important, the important thing is that we have all loved earnestly and passionately, and we will continue to work hard to pursue the sky that belongs to our love...
The most wonderful part of life is standing today, we can never guess what kind of situation will come to us tomorrow. Anything is possible. For mew and tong, I would rather do the most beautiful blessings and expectations
.Remember Lucy Liu once said, "Everybody wants to label people. Sometimes you just fall in love with somebody, and you're really not thinking about what gender or whatever they happen to be. I think that if I happen to fall in love with a woman, everyone's going to make a big deal out of it. But if I happen to fall in love with a man, nobody cares." In the
film, Sister June left a letter when she stepped on the train. Said: "We all make mistakes because of love. Fortunately, this is for the people we love. Life always gives us many opportunities to start over and correct the mistakes we have made..."
Ying said: "As long as there is love, there is hope!"
Mew said: "If we really love someone, can we accept the fact? One day he died. Parting is a part of life, We all know that. But can we let it go? Do we really love someone and not be afraid of him leaving us? …and we have to accept that no matter where we are, the one we love is no longer with us— —"
Tong said: "I think, we still can't be together, but that doesn't mean that I don't love you."
It is love in the world, misplaced love, that we will have so many regrets, and it is also true It is with so many regrets that life becomes so beautiful and colorful.
Tong leaves again, and mew faces loneliness alone again. Facing the puppet, mew weeps; in the middle of the night, facing the fragile boy on the screen alone, I also weep...
