Absent father and traumatized honey boy. All he wanted was love, but pain was all he got. The pain you got equals the pain you endure walking out from it. Stella performances. Conflicts between characters were powerful and engaging, the film could end in a better way tho. Some nice night shots there. Also, FKA Twigs was so beautiful in it!
整部电影的基调很不喜欢:需要去军队来成为一个“完整”的人。尤其是最后,主角母亲不接受他的性向但军队接受了… 虽然细节上展现了国家机器和个人之间的张力,但总体还是有点imperialism。但是一星给导演映后说的那句:military is where those who experience the failure of the American dreams are pushed to. 有这句话这部电影可供思考的空间就大了很多了。
