Fallen Angels (1995, dir. Wong Kar-wai)

[suhosieun]

it’s genuinely wild how often weak hero gets reduced to "bromance,” like the story is just about a particularly intense friendship and not something far more complicated, far more intimate. this isn't just shippers projecting. this isn't just wishful thinking. you don’t need the director and cast members repeatedly claiming that suho and sieun are each other's first love to interpret that on your own. the narrative already tells you this with absolute clarity.

the queer subtext isn’t subtle. it’s not hidden in glances or throwaway lines. it’s built into the structure of their relationship, in every decision they make. suho knew beomseok had tampered with his bike. that wasn’t just bullying, it was a premeditated act of violence. he knew what kind of danger he was walking into when he went to the ring, and he went anyway. alone. outnumbered. no illusions. he knew he could die. but he went. because they hurt sieun. because sieun got hurt for him.

that’s their language. not confession, but action. not sentiment, but sacrifice. die for each other. kill for each other.

and sieun, who had always been defined by his discipline, his detachment, his spotless academic record? he lets himself spiral. he got expelled. stopped eating. stopped sleeping. stopped going to cram school. when he found out suho was in critical condition, he froze in the middle of the street and didn’t move, even with a car speeding toward him. as if life without suho wasn’t a life worth returning to.

he came back from a coma asking for suho, looking for him. suho was already in one because of him. they revolve around each other like twin stars caught in gravity’s pull. love doesn’t always look like romance, but that doesn’t make it less real. or less queer.

so no, it’s not just a bromance. and if that’s all you see. if you can watch all of that and not feel the weight of what’s being said without words? then i'm sorry, but you’ve missed the entire point.

The chestnut man : hide and seek is basically my own personal hell cause what do you mean there is no thulinxhess ?? What the fuck

[eijaksa]

I really don't remember how he was in the Netflix adaption but book!Hess is so my type it's painful. Childhood trauma? Enough personal issues for his colleagues to question if his judgement can be trusted? Lives in a dump because imagine having enough will to live to give a fuck about where you live? Please.

Go see kokuho (national treasure) incredible movie!!!!!

[starlene]

Saw Kokuho, and I gotta say: for a movie all about men playing women, gender wasn't nearly as important a theme as I thought it would be.

Good movie though!

[lounna23]

I thought of that too !!

Honestly sociable and loud people jn my experience are mire likely to be horrible than introverts. Maybe cause they spend less time with their thoughts than introverts do. That's not to say being sociable is a negative trait just an observation
