简介:
An intricately constructed, lyrical and heartbreaking film about two young men wrestling with their sexuality in the repressive English society of the 1920s老婆:“老公,你觉得我今天穿这件裙子好看吗?”老公:“好看,像天使。”老婆:“真的吗?你真会说话!”老公:“嗯,像天使一样,不食人间烟火,也就是不接地气,显得有点飘。” Told in elegant flashback, an institutionalised novelist recounts the story of his love affair with a friend, convinced their shared sexuality could be ‘cured’. Visually striking, beautifully acted and defined by a haunting mix of romanticism and unflinching horror, this bold film bravely examines a shamefully neglected period in queer history.
