Let love come at the cost of life

When he picked up the pen, he was afraid that the femininity of his gender would taint this bloody Argentine gay movie.

I didn't watch "Burning Flames" in order. I watched the second half of the download first. That's good, because it was the ups and downs that followed deeply shocked me and made me remember every scene in the movie. If you look at it from the beginning, it might be abandoned halfway.

In two days, I read "Burning Coins in Flames" twice, and I couldn't contain the tears each time. Angel and Nene's forbearing and restrained love contrasts sharply with Nene and Giselle's outspoken desires. What you show naked in front of your eyes can't stir up any waves in your heart; and Angel's desperate suppression of desire for Nene for the sake of faith makes people unable to remain unmoved. This is the director's brilliance. His irony of heterosexuality and his praise of homosexuality can be heard in a silent place.

Angel's character is a unity of two extreme contradictions. During the robbery, he always couldn't control the madness and anger, causing unnecessary deaths and injuries; when he fled, he stayed in the room all day to read the English dictionary to dispel the auditory hallucinations, his face was pale, and he was silent all day long. Nene is a calm typical, and only Angel can make him irrational. But the timing of Nene's gun is unpredictable, as if an untimed bomb may explode at any time. The combination of these two is the famous "twin" robber in Argentina, and also an unknown lover.

Angel’s desperate eyes are an unforgettable classic scene in the movie. It appears repeatedly-never when he was robbed or surrounded by thousands of police, when he was crazy and burning-he asked Nene if there was someone else When he knelt down in front of the statue of Jesus, when he clamped Nene's jaw to look at him, when he asked Nene if he loves that woman... The auditory hallucinations appeared repeatedly, and God asked them to save the sacred semen. go to heaven. So when Nene stroked Angel's chest several times, Angel turned around and ignored it. He was redeeming, but he didn't tell him.

Nene stood outside Angel's door, almost begging, asking Angel what he should do. Angel clenched the cross necklace tightly in the room without answering.

Nene lay next to Giselle and told her that Angel knew herself well, as if he was born by him, but she didn't know Angel, not at all. He didn't know what Angel was thinking or what he needed.

Giselle asked Nene, you love him, right?



In the whole movie, for more than two hours, Angel and Nene didn't say a word to each other that I love you. Because it is not needed at all.

Angel was shot in the robbery, and Nene killed all the police in a rage. Nene took out the fragments for Angel on the sofa and kissed him, covering his painful roar, coaxing him like a child.

They lie on the floor in a house surrounded by thousands of police officers. Angel said to Nene excitedly, I can't hear anymore, those voices disappeared, it's really quiet. Nene laughed, Angel leaned forward, and they started kissing.

In the end Nene was shot and Angel took off the cross necklace and put it on Nene's neck. Nene said, I heard those voices. Angel shot the machine gun around in anger, shouting: Shut up all of me! ! !

How much do you have to love that person before you dare to open fire on your faith?




At the beginning of the movie, Angel refuses to have sex with Nene due to auditory hallucinations. After that, the two participated in the robbery, because only when they were working could they find the feeling of "twins". At the end of the movie, Angel got rid of the torture of auditory hallucinations when his death came, and bravely faced his love with Nene-although it was at the cost of life, it was the best ending for both of them.

Rather than let life come at the cost of love, it is better to let love come at the cost of life.

    It's really classic. It is much stronger than those little innocent, ambiguous and gentle. The soft elements of women, auditory hallucinations, and English words make the feelings more real and tough. As the third party in form, women are always just footnotes
