Ke zai ni xin di de ming zi

It was Christmas Eve and I wanted to watch this movie and Cherry Magic. I put on the fire, made dinner and settled down to watch this film. I had to pause three times just to absorb just how raw and empathic this movie was to watch.

By the end, I was done. I couldn't manage to watch anything else. The narrative, the character development, the dialogue between the boy and the pastor, the realism and the cast are exceptional.

It's a movie that will communicate to many, that their experience and struggle through life, just to live in society, is understood and they're not alone. It reaches the soul.

A drama from Taiwan. LGBTQ It is about some friends in a boarding school where one falls in love with the other causing the friendship to gradually change, while they face situations typical of the time. Quality. Entertaining Talk about the harsh exodus of homosexuality at puberty and loving someone and never having the courage to tell them. About the decisions we make in life not to be judged or labeled by others. About wanting to be the same as others and really being yourself. He handles the religious point of view in an interesting way. Mainly talks about how sometimes we want to force someone to love us or forcing things to happen. The time well recreated. Some performances are not enough and for some moments they lack expression to get to touch certain emotions, but in general what they want to convey is achieved. Told in times and reaching the present. Although some scenes can feel long, the truth is that they make a lot of sense to the reactions that human beings can have about love. If you ever fell in love with your best friend, you are going to love this movie. With light and well-managed sex scenes, as well as nudes.

Love it so much! The production, settings, 80s vibes, actors, storyline, everything just PERFECT also the OST. The plot is unpredictable and not 'ordinary' or 'classic' BL 😭💖

It is one of films for feel more than judge. A sort of exploration of personal experiences, honest, precise, well acted, maybe too long but graceful and correct. A film about friendship, love, apparences, reaction of the other and pure living. And, sure, about time passing. I appreciate it as a beautiful exercise to remind not only gay relations nuance but the simplicity of emotions, the traits of a specific age and the forms of acceptance more of yourself than the other. Short, a bitter beautiful film. For a part of public, for many motives, just useful. I do not exclude myself from this part.

This movie just crushes my soul, even more so the second time I watched it. I relate to it so hard. I think there would be many others who also relate to it the same way. I wonder what my Birdy was thinking when he watched this movie. And did he recognise his role, that he was the Birdy in our relationship? Even worse, I wonder if it causes him regret.

It is an amazing movie, and speaks to the experience so many people had, and still have. Thank you for making it.
