A Beautiful Encounter (non-movie review)

The first encounter between Sebastian and Charles is the most beautiful "love at first sight" I've seen in literature so far, although the author or Charles himself considers it an inauspicious meeting.
Charles ruined his ground floor room because of the violets planted under the windowsill, and on summer nights, the room was full of flowers, and he insisted on not replacing his cousin who warned him that he would provoke a hangover guy and ruined his ground floor room. Stian, life in Oxford began to make sense from then on, and everything else turned grey and seemed to disappear silently in the background.
Sebastian is the perfect combination of such a pure boy soul and a delicate and beautiful man's body. He would carry his teddy bear with him and have 'Aloysius' carved on its back - the bear's name. He would give Aloysius a hairbrush, with a very hard bristles, not to brush the bear, but to frighten the bear by hitting the bear's butt with the brush when he was angry. He would describe the wine with his lover as follows: "This wine is a little shy, like an antelope with big eyes..." He would coquettishly say to his lover: "I don't want you to be with my family. Our family's People are swooningly beautiful, and once their enchanting power grabs you, they'll make you their friend, not mine, and I won't let them do that."

That March night , a bunch of so-called intellectual friends in Charles' fire room, smoking cigars, drinking champagne, talking about boring abstract theories, tired of pretending, Charles is probably tired, and wants to breathe the scent of flowers Fresh air, went to open the window, and there was Sebastian's strikingly beautiful face. He was drunk, his eyes were blank, but the corners of his mouth were raised, and he looked at Charles, like a child who had been caught doing something wrong, innocently begging for forgiveness. No one can be indifferent to such a mad and lovely methodical demeanor, Charles Baba looks on, bewildered, and then Sebastian stoops into the windowsill and vomits in front of Charles! The next day, Charles had no intention of attending class and drew a picture of the moment Sebastian vomited, and Sebastian bought all the flowers from the flower stand and filled Charles' room.

This version of the series "Revisited" is as faithful to the original as possible. Jeremy Irons, who plays Charles, is my uncle who is extremely nympho, and every time I watch his erotic scenes, I will be immersed in electricity. A complete mess. He is really a wonderful flower among the old men, and the perfect interpreter of infidelity. The sexy nasolabial creases speak of a very sullen soul, and the deep eyes spurt out a strong desire to forbear. I often imagine that if he gave me a gentle glance in reality, I would definitely be swayed to the point where my soul would be blown away, but unfortunately, even if I wanted to, it didn't seem to be. That chance. And Sebastian's actor Anthony Andrews' innate romantic aristocratic tone also interprets this role vividly and eloquently, and it is so beautiful that people have to love it.
