People are responsible for themselves (this is not a movie review)

This isn't a movie review, it's an afterthought.


Quite depressing, the whole story is a process of life withering. It is true that the protagonists have fought and worked hard, but it is a struggle in the face of fate. Some scenes in the movie are more "open", such as male and male passion scenes, so if you don't accept it, don't watch it.

I think the movie can be divided into three parts. One part is the same-sex love between two male protagonists. Male No. 2 doesn't mind Male No. 1 having AIDS, kissing, intimate contact with him, taking care of his life and so on. Even in the end, he performed euthanasia privately, and he couldn't bear to see the male lead suffer any more. He risked his health and the law to help Male Number One. These things can only be said to be true love.

The second part, some people deserve pity, like infections caused by medical malpractice. And some people are self-inflicted, such as drug addiction. Without further ado, people should live in self-denial and bear the consequences of their actions. Trying to avoid myself, and finally ended up with "no tears without seeing the coffin", the male protagonist finally cried bitterly, is there no regret in this? ? ? ?

the third part. They went to trouble because their demands were not met. If people are not satisfied because their demands are not satisfied, they can make a fuss with confidence. Is that okay? Of course, we have to see if the demands are reasonable. The movie itself doesn't vilify the pharmacist too much. Pharmacists say new drugs are in short supply, and the movie doesn't suggest it's fake. So just because pharmacists don't have the capacity to meet the needs of all patients, do they deserve to die?

People are responsible for themselves. Many, many things that are worth regretting, I did when I knew there was a huge risk.

    This year's most important gay movie is completely made for comrades to see and empathize with the life movement of comrades. The turbulent group movement is intertwined with the love, illness, and death of the individual, beating the heart surgingly at an intensity of 120 beats per minute, and the flexible editing makes it difficult to distinguish whether it is a protest or a party. After watching this movie, I feel that I am also HIV positive. Really deserve Palme d'Or!

    A confident film, made calm and confident, acting honestly and confidently, confidently facing the disease, confidently facing the body, confidently facing the difference between oneself and others, confidently arguing, fighting, and surviving In Chen Danqing’s words, everyone in it has a "face that has not been bullied." I am ashamed. While other people’s movies are confidently focusing on self-confidence, our movies are still focusing on trivial topics. .
