In the end, he just took a saber and cut off a strand of hair from this blue-eyed, yellow-haired man on the night his lover died. He loves him deeply, but he cannot escape his abyss. I'm sitting here at this moment, recalling the images of the movies I saw two days ago, and they flashed by slowly, as if they had traveled through many centuries. In fact, when I think about it now, I probably only want to remember some good things. The tension during the viewing process collapsed in the final despair. However, after watching it once, I realized that no matter how deep the suffering is, I have the courage to say that I want to Write, write down this afterthought. He is so beautiful, so beautiful. A Tsing Yi, blocking the tyranny. Yonoi's temperament makes people feel stable, and rescues people from the tension and depression at the beginning. However, when he saw Cyrils later, the deep water trembled. I think I'll probably always remember, Yoyo sitting in the high court, looking down at Cyrils quietly, that deep freeze, that moment Ryuichi Sakamoto's face was so beautiful, his His brows and eyes suddenly softened, but they were filled with a sense of serenity and fate. I have never been able to resist this kind of man with brows and eyes like those in Ukiyo-e. He sat there, as if the nervous pleas beside him had nothing to do with him , He just fixedly looked at the blue-eyed man in front of him, and then narrowed his eyes slightly. At that time, for the first time, I understood what love at first sight is. At that time, I even thought that Sakamoto Ryuichi really fell in love with David Bowie. He was so determined, brave, and mighty, like an accident, like a free bird, with a sharp beak, his claws covered with scars that symbolize honor and experience, his mighty wings struggling with beautiful feathers, a pair of eyes As if it could pierce the sky. He wanted to net him, Yoyo wanted to net Cyrils the first time he saw him, he used Shakespeare's lines as his and his opening, clumsily showing his relationship with other fools. Different, he practiced awkward English, walked off the court, approached the man, but put his hands in his pockets, as if he wanted to get close to him but was cowardly protecting himself, Shiye was almost always in front of Cyrils. They were all weak, his questions were answered deftly and contemptuously by him, his bare back made Shiye panic, the officer who shouted "put on your clothes quickly" recovered from his obsessive expression, lovely It's like a little boy in love. After that, he just silently and pretended not to realize that he was acting abnormally to protect Cyrils. He did not hesitate to shout "I believe in him" in the courtroom, and the trial that had been set in stone was probably changed under his influence. There is something that seeps warmly into this sad and dignified film, into its long, tedious takes. This thing, perhaps, is called love. Maybe. In the scene after that, I was deeply moved by Cyrils' virtual grooming in prison, and then I really understood why Shi Ye fell in love with this man at a glance. He is as beautiful as him, and Shiye, who has a slight narcissistic tendency, is fascinated by this man who is similar but opposite to him. He is wild and uninhibited, but at the same time elegant and gentleman. His slightly raised chin outlines a perfect line. He was always neatly dressed, with a scarf on, and a tall figure always standing on his high boots. He was so different and so decisively broke Shiye's life. So he forbids him to die. Shiye may not understand what happened to him, but before he understands his own thoughts, he must let Cyrils live, so after the gunshot, Cyrils is like a saint who died. When the son was usually tied to the execution platform and shouted "Good marksmanship" unscathed, Shi Ye, who was dressed in a military uniform and carrying a saber, walked through the thick smoke behind him. He was like a hero, saving his lover. Cyrils was taken back to the captive camp under the jurisdiction of Shiye. At the beginning, the warrior who beat Lawrence was severely flogged by Shiye, probably because Shiye knew that Lawrence was a comrade-in-arms of Cyrils. "It seems that as soon as you came, you inspired his bestiality", Lawrence's words made people laugh. Shi Ye stood in front of the blinds, took off his gloves, and the sunlight fell one by one on his flickering face. At this time, his voice was very gentle, "what kind of man is he? He turned his head, then he approached Lawrence gently, listened carefully and quietly to Lawrence's story about Cyrils' past, and watched with great patience as Lawrence explained what a "sweeper" was. "What did the doctor say" then to Lawrence, "I need him to get back to health as soon as possible, this is an order! "And then, as if deliberately avoiding Lawrence's question, "Why do you care so much about Colonel Cyrils?" On the warmest night, Sergeant Yuan went to find Lawrence, two friends of different faiths chatted quietly in the dark night, and then Shi Ye came, and he let the guards in and took a look at Cyrils' face. , but he just stood far away and looked at the sleeping man. At that moment, the moonlight shone on Shiye's face, and it was very gentle. He looked at Cyrils so fixedly, with such beautiful eyes. That picture was later used as a desktop by me. Sakamoto Ryuichi's 32-year-old face is young and handsome, and there is no other picture that is more beautiful than the way he looks at his beloved. , Shiye's kendo practice disturbed the prisoners of war, but Shiye only asked softly when talking with Lawrence, "Is that sick officer feeling sick too? He almost thinks only about him, he cares about everything about him. He thinks he's doing these things like no one else, but he's just lying to himself. The man who eats flowers is so charming, he's a burning dead soul , "Don't do this to me again, don't hold me hostage because I love you", even if he stood on the high steps and was on guard, even if the man in front of him was bound by four or five people, he still Being at a disadvantage, Cyrils tremblingly stretched out his hand to take the flower to Shiye, and stared at him without blinking, his thin face still handsome, and his body covered with scars, but still as beautiful. Can you bear it?! Shi Ye's eyes were full of grievances, and he asked in a low voice, "Who do you think you are? Are you an evil spirit? "Then the next second, Cyrils said the shuddering words "Yes, I hope I am one of your evil thoughts." The imprisoned Cyrils is still concerned by Yono. Maybe everyone noticed that the soldier who went to assassinate Cyrils once asked the guard, "Does the captain come often?" ' The answer was 'He comes every night. "He came every night, and he brought Cyrils a Persian blanket. The night Cyrils ran away with Lawrence on his back, he came too, he turned to him, drew his knife, and saw Cyrils Throwing the dagger to the ground, he seemed aggrieved and asked, "Why don't you fight me, if you defeat me, you will be free! ""Why do you imprison me, why can't you set me free ! "Actually, I think what he wants to say, maybe this sentence. He can only protect him. He sees Sergeant Yuan pull out his pistol and hesitantly blocks Cyrils in front of him, just like the one who went The guard who assassinated Cyrils said "He's a demon, he'll destroy your soul! "At this time, Shiye, many things in his life, many sinful ugly things like underground pubic lice, began to stir up, and he was caught in this darkness and struggled. He found that what attracted him was to himself. The betrayal of faith in his past life. This love almost strips him from his original soul. When watching the movie, I often don't know whether it is the childishness of Ryuichi Sakamoto who first touched the screen or the childishness of Yono himself. Weak, in the face of Cyrils, he always seemed so restless and irritable, panicked, his dialogue suddenly became rushed, and too much emotion was dissolved. The military uniform of the highest power, standing in front of everyone, he will punish those who are lazy in spirit, and he will prove him right in the most brutal way. And Cyrils still wears his broad-brimmed hat and scarf, Beneath the fluffy yellow hair are a pair of resolute eyes, he just looked at Shi Ye and said lightly: It is beautiful. When the commander was about to be executed, Cyrils stood still, and he walked out slowly, who had been on the outside, gently put down his rolled up sleeves, and buttoned his chest. The music was soothing and beautiful, but Filled with the sad taste of fate. The soldier who spread his legs and was about to execute his hands and feet panicked when he approached, as if a gust of wind had been brought by Cyrils' approach. While Cyrils shoved him to the ground in the face, I think he actually wanted to touch the face that fascinated him. Then Cyrils got up from the ground and stepped forward calmly. He pulled Cyrils' shoulders, pressed the man who was shorter and thinner than him into his arms, and kissed him firmly and affectionately. Cheeks, Yoyo's eyes in the camera couldn't contain tears because of this extreme emotional shock, he was completely frightened and completely intoxicated, and then Cyrils let him go, as if looking at him for the last time He glanced at the blue sky, and finally looked into Shi Ye's eyes. After only about 3 seconds, Shi Ye woke up. He woke up from the ecstasy of joy and shame, and then slipped into a coma. Cyrils was punished and buried in the yellow sand, leaving only one head to wait for death, and only one pair of eyes watching the world. It's just that he didn't see that the man came and greeted him with the military salute. His footprints were slightly left on the yellow sand where he died, as if their feelings were so deep and shallow. The strand of hair that Shiye cut was brought back to the shrine in his hometown and enshrined. As Lawrence said, the death of Cyrils planted a seed in Shiye's heart, and we, together, witnessed the seed's growth. growing up. After watching the movie, I was watching Ryuichi Sakamoto perform "Merry Christmas Mr. I burst into tears during the video of Lawrence, so sad and desperate, the white-haired professor played this song with almost his entire life and emotion, and when the last ending ended, I couldn't hold myself in tears. What a desperate love, what a despair, we always say, "What will they do after that", but in this relationship, every moment I feel that it will be destroyed effortlessly, life's Vulnerability and emotional gravity deserve to be mentioned in moments like this. The taboo of same-sex love is full of sadness, and in such a situation, it is even more fragile. Cyrils' redemption of Shi Ye even cost him his entire life. But perhaps it is this unpredictable love that deserves to be called - love.

(The title is quoted from Jane's "April Splitting Silk", I wish everyone a Merry Christmas.)
