What is a good movie? A heart-wrenching movie is a good movie. After watching it, my heart hurts like a needle or high like a drug. This movie is awesome. So what is a good gay movie? It's not about looking for a few handsome guys to show a few ass balls, and it's good-looking. Yang Fan's "Love of a Beautiful Boy" has Wu Yanzu and Feng Delun in charge. In addition to choosing handsome guys, this old man is better at lighting art. Can you look at him? It's not that you play a few petty bourgeoisie sentiments and make a beautiful scene to look good. There is Wong Kar-wai's "Happy Spring", who dares to pretend? It's not like pretending a few emotional entanglements of abusive hearts without any pain or itching are good-looking. Which part of Guan Jinpeng's "Blue Yu" does not torture you thousands of times? However, in 2006, "Broken Arm Mountain" was born, and the classic gay movies all over the world were instantly stepped on the foot of the mountain. After Ang Lee, there was no gay movie.
In fact, I have to say that Ang Lee is very suitable for making gay movies. Gay movies will become impetuous and vulgar if they are less popular, and Ang Lee's forbearance and restrained temperament and super control over the movie make "Brokeback Mountain" different. Compared with the naked cigarettes of handsome guys, Ang Lee is obviously more I like the natural scenery of the mountains and Mirror Lake - the most commonly used technique of Chinese classical writers, but it is extremely difficult to use it in the film, but Ang Lee handled it extremely well and even became the biggest highlight of the film. Mountains and forests, winding roads, and fireworks in the night sky—the pictures have a quiet and shocking beauty, and the composition is very elegant. Coupled with clean editing and a background guitar that can be called a masterpiece, it buffers the film well. The rhythm serves both emotional and narrative functions. Ang Lee is the one who knows the heat best. His meticulous control of the picture makes the "Sentence of Love Landscape" not only does not appear contrived, but pierces a needle in your heart - telling you what is forbearance and what is not to say.
In fact, in comparison, the story of "Broken Arm Mountain" itself is not very fresh. It is nothing more than a story of a straight man who was bent, and another person flew into a disaster and left no trace of hatred. Similar stories or more sadistic stories are not uncommon. What really makes this film is the director's shooting method. That's why the film won the Oscar for Best Director instead of Best Picture. From the beginning of the film, Jack peeked at Ernis with the rear mirror of his two little broken cars, and seemingly inadvertently told the audience: I fell in love with this cowboy. Well, since then, there will be no further foreshadowing of the ambiguous relationship between the two. The two cowboys go up the mountain like two lonely straight male diaosi to herd sheep. The life of the two on Brokeback Mountain takes up a lot of space in the film. Director Ang Lee presents everything in a panoramic manner, explaining the daily work flow without hesitation, even the canned pork and beans. Big Feature - Talking about the weather is just not talking about that kind of thing. Until one night, the cold wind squeezed the two of them into a tent, and the passion to whet the appetite of the audience finally came, but it was just a matter of haste. The whole process took less than a minute, and not even a butt was seen. At the same time, the two almost fought each other, and in a poor environment, that thing lost its beauty.
After that awkward night, the relationship between the two was really called on the road. After a period of self-struggling, Ernes finally stopped twisting the bar. The scene of the two of them playing naked was caught by the employer's binoculars. The happy sheep herding life of the two came to an end. , From then on, the two became strangers, each went to a normal life, married a wife and had children. The two cowboys, each immersed in their family life, seem to have forgotten each other, but maintain their relationship with a postcard. When Ernes kisses Jack deeply downstairs in his house, his family begins to be destroyed bit by bit... In the final scene of the film, the plot setting of Ernis refusing to attend his daughter's wedding is so Cruel, the cowboy's life was so miserable that he said "I swear..." with tears in front of Jack's shirt in the closet, the climax of the whole film. And when he wiped away his tears and closed the cabinet door, the scene outside the window behind the cabinet door appeared in the camera, and the whole film ended - in the last second of the film, we still saw a well-composed picture, and saw a After bringing us cruelty and tears, Ang Lee is still extremely calm and restrained.
Because of Ang Lee's strong control, the film "Broken Arm Mountain" is extremely perfect in rhythm, performance, picture and music; because of Ang Lee's restraint, "Broken Arm Mountain" has no sultry and ambiguity , but the LGBT movie has a truly tragic atmosphere, so it is favored by the chairman of the jury and respected by commercial theaters. At the end of this article, I suddenly thought: Could Director Ang Lee be a comrade who knows how to restrain himself? Just like gay movies, do gay emotions require self-restraint in exchange for the space to blossom?
The relationship between Jack and Ernes in the film has always been tangled and distressing, but the ruthless Ang Lee still left the last trace of warmth for the audience - on a cold morning on Brokeback Mountain, Ernes walked out of the tent and sweetened from behind. Around Jack's neck: Jack, you sleep like a horse. The guitar in the background also softens at the moment, and this is the only scene in the film where we feel warm and comforting, even though we don't know if it really happened or if it was just a dream for the two of them.
