(After watching this movie, my heart is surging, I feel a little bit of gossip, don’t like it, don’t spray.)
It is important to emphasize that the feeling of LGBT people after watching this movie is definitely different from that of straight people.
Today, when gay movies are gradually depoliticized, this Love, Simon may become a phenomenal work. Because it not only does exactly what all youth movies should do, but also shows the commercial side of gay movies. It is no exaggeration to say that this movie full of youthful hormones represents that gay commercial movies will embark on a new journey.
The story told in the film is an unnew topic like "boys struggling to come out", but the youthfulness it exudes is exactly the same as all the popular youth films we have seen before. It does not become depressed because the protagonist is gay. On the contrary, the protagonist Simon and his friends, just like other children, play unscrupulously every day and drink iced coffe without scruples, because of the mistakes that young people make. And contradictions...but it's just these daily routines that make people feel the trueness and preciousness of this movie even more.
If the movie is an unattainable dream, then I believe that for many LGBT people (especially the Chinese community), this movie is definitely a dream that makes you want to sleep forever. In the Chinese world, in the face of traditional values, let alone coming out with your family, even if you are honest with your friends, you will have some scruples. Faced with the 5000-year-old Chinese nation’s “traditional virtues”, the concept of coming out is for many people. It is not allowed to exist. Because of this, after watching this movie, it makes people feel sweet and dreamy.
This movie is like a dream, it's out of reach, but it's so full of magic.
We look forward to it in our hearts that we can be honest with our family in our lifetime. When our family knows our homosexuality, we long for our mother to have heart-to-heart with us even if her eyes are full of tears, and the content of the heart-to-heart is nothing else, it is our mother who will continue to love us with all her; we long for our father to be able to Give us a solid hug and tell us that he is still proud of having a child like me. What we long for more is to kiss the person with our own heart in the carnival amusement park, on the Ferris wheel under the moonlit night and starry sky...
However, we know that all of this is too perfect, like a dream that can never be reached, but we are incomparably ambivalent in wanting to wander in this dream and stay awake for a long time.
In the end, Nick Robinson , who has been paying attention since playing " The King of Summer " , looks like he is finally going to be popular ...and it's his turn.
