This movie is unbelievable. It is just amazing how the story goes, you go deep with it. It is a simple movie, but a real movie with a great story who makes you feel happy, sad, hopefully and show the human essentials. It is perfect! It is a long movie, but it could go longer, the story is so intense that when reaches its ends you turn into a desire for more.

View MorePerhap,I think it a shame on them to think only a thing that you should be expected from Asian homosexual boy is a "money&honey" why don't rethink we are in the same earth and need the same love conceptional ,too There are many ways of love to be demonstrated in this 2hours drama movie and the tastes of love or to belove is magnified people together such as their family,friends,...etc. but there're not sexscences in this warmly movie as US DVD version pictorial promotes.May be you're not mislead by producers but you're mislead by perception&expects.Frankly,I saw French,Thai, or even US black melodrama but I don't think this is a black melodrama film ,because this movie communicate a widely range of emotions,not especially tragic storyline.Maybe the ways of love is no definitions,expectations,inconclusive paths or any determinations to be conducted love. Just love or belove. It's no more exceeding.

About all kinds of love and how important it is to have a family. Hard was to hear the sentence: I can not be your boyfriend, however I love you. Cute actors and nice music. It is a long film: nearly 3 hours. But nice to watch and think. Coming out is in this film is on a natural way. The mother is afraid of loosing her son but she see at the end that the best is to let her son to choose what he wants to be. This film give me a good impression of the way of live in Asia. How people are with each other and the way of greeting each other.
... View MoreNeedless to say that so many people have been touched by the movie. But why? I can't even remember which was the last movie that touched me for years...I would say it's due to "purity". Nothing but love in the movie, all kinds of love, family, friends, lovers... everyone in the movie loves everyone else in the movie in their own ways, almost, but very tragical at the same time...There is not much contrast used in the movie, unlike other love movies, e.g. love vs. war, or love vs. religion etc... even the boy-boy love looks so natural...They are just common people, common family, common school, common boys and girls, you cannot say anything from their material lives that you don't have, but i bet you may not have their love.And some thinks the movie is too long... but i would say, this is why the movie is so depictive... i recall a flavour of famous Shanghai female writer... the very old song played by the granny is from Shanghai singer, Wu Yingyin, who's still alive and singing. :)
