To be honest, the movie viewing experience is not good, like a bottle of bitter wine, the taste is astringent, and the taste still stays on the tongue and refuses to disappear.

First of all, most of the time in the film shows the lives of the two people, which makes people look very distressed, wondering why the two can't meet and talk well. Matthias lives by the rules. If he has a career, he needs to be quiet in the workplace. If he has a girlfriend and each other's parents, he needs to consider life-long important things that cannot be done, so he has been restraining himself, treating his feelings for Maxime as "friendship", ignoring those who will soon be The tumultuous inner wave, but after Maxime's parting declaration and the spoofed kiss, he couldn't hold back his thoughts of Maxime. Because he didn't want to be with Maxime, he was afraid that he would do something "outrageous" accidentally, so the more he cared about it, even if his girlfriend asked him to say goodbye to Maxime, he would insist on that kiss, so many times in this way. Lost in front of best friend and girlfriend. So it gets worse and worse.

On Maxime's side, she has been cleaning up her mother's mess. She is like a mother who has been in trouble for eight lifetimes. She can only swallow her voice when she is subjected to domestic violence, and her mother's occasional warmth is just to ask for money. The family has no warmth at all for Maxime. Moreover, the film's writing focuses too much on the contradiction between mother and child, which makes people feel that they can't see Maxime's feelings for Matthias at all, and they can't see the care of childhood sweethearts. [At one time, I suspected that Matthias was just unrequited love, but at second glance, I could see some clues, but it was too shallow. 】

In short, apart from the kiss at the beginning [even the picture is cut], I can't see the sugary part. It's really hard to see the lives of the two people apart.

【kiss】

The movie is mentioned three times in total.

The first time was a long time before the film started. It started at a college graduation party. At that time, the two of them drank too much, and they were confused and made out. seeded.

The second time was when the film was spoofed at the beginning of the film. There was nothing wrong with Maxime, but Matthias started to panic. He remembered the feeling of kissing last time, and obviously had other feelings different from friendship, so he hesitated, found reasons to refuse, resisted kissing in front of his best friend, and then this "criminal evidence" As a short film, he kept it to his girlfriend's house party. He was concerned about everyone's opinion of him, as if he was afraid of the consequences of coming out of the closet, but in fact, the people around him had no opinion on the kiss, but he could no longer give up his feelings for Maxime. .

The third happened at the farewell party, after two weeks of fermentation, Matthias could no longer contain his love for Maxime, in the rain, they were enthusiastic in the utility room, but halfway through, Matthias was timid, and he ran away from the man , back to his own routine life. 【That's why you look so irritating】

【end】

I'm not happy with this ending. It belongs to the indefinite ending. Is it to go or stay? It can either be a walk for two people or just a farewell.

So it can't hold back my tangled heart after watching it for two hours.

Why is Maxime leaving? It would be better to say that the mother-son conflict is the main cause.

In fact, I was a little touched at the end, because Matt kept Maxime's recommendation letter.

[It feels a bit anticlimactic, so let’s just take it as a whining. 】

    Who is being forced by a kiss? Compared with love, the relationship between mother and child has always been placed in a more important creative position by Dolan. This kind of bondage is also really projected onto the two roles of Matthias and Maxim. The inadvertent persecution of each other flicked the throbbing heart in an attempt to falsely sleep. Although the details are slightly rough, the sincerity of emotion cannot be faked.

    A-/82|#2019.11.09爱KU# The first bgm came together and the whole person immediately said, "Yeah. It's Dolan." The story of the bamboo horse and the bamboo horse is so true. Ideas cannot be talked about, not even thought. You can sleep on the same bed, relax when the other party appears, say ugly things, and have a cold war for a long time. But without the impressive psychological metaphors before, the only thing that impressed me was that when it rained, my friend ran out to collect clothes and Matt ran in the snowy night. And the kiss in the kitchen was really awkward, and the whole theater couldn't help but laugh. But overall a not boring 2 hours. Then, black me Almodovar hhh? ps: Matt is so damn hot!
