What summer hopes is to share some secret desires with tom. But this is just a lonely need in life. You need to find solace and answers in another person who has a little tacit understanding, and then don't take responsibility for each other, return to their respective life tracks, and continue to sneak. tom doesn't understand. no tags on relationships is not his voice. He needs an identity or at least emotional confirmation, an emotional security. And this is proof of his lack of self-confidence and anxiety.
The movie begins by emphasizing that it has nothing to do with love. Maybe not. Summer itself is the embodiment of a concept of life. Independent, estranged, casual, emotionally cold, there is a sensitive and alert child hidden in his heart. All those who think they can walk in and reverse all this will be in vain in the end. summers will clear them out of life like defragmentation. The shards left themselves the most painful and confusing wounds of their lives. toms will also encounter autumns and winters, obsessively continuing to believe that there will be eternal feelings for one of them will be their greatest childishness.
ps:summer wraps himself in a chrysalis and refuses to come out, excluding others from intervening; tom is naturally possessive towards what he loves—both of which seem selfish. But it is more about the powerlessness of human nature and the common fear of the unknown in the depths of human hearts. This can probably explain the motives of the leftover women, otaku, and DINKs out of conventions by the way.
