i rewatched your name engraved herein and then read the novelization. now i wanna watch the movie again.

it just makes me so emotional. in the movie the colors are so gorgeous and the music is wonderful too and everything feels like it’s playing at my hearts frequency.

i empathize with them both a lot and was once a closeted religious gay too that was made to believe i would have to go to hell simply for loving.

also the cruelty and paternalizing ways of rejecting the person you love to protect them and yourself, but being unable to truly let go of them either, at least for now.

and the ending to me is perfect as well. making me cryy.

when it first came out i read that the director, whose story this is mostly based on, once wrote 20 a3 pages double sided to his love. which makes sense. though i couldn’t find it now.

i think it’s this particular (sad) flavor of loving deeply and intimately and from afar that’s also part of portrait of a lady on fire and brokeback mountain? except its ending being so much more hopeful and beautiful and yet you cannot deny its tragedy. there’s probably much more that i haven’t seen yet but even without the ending it’s a different story to moonlight or cmbyn.

anyways.

wanan. good night.

„When I looked at him, he was looking at me too.

„Is your love bigger than the love I give?
Tell me. What's the difference between your love and mine? Tell me the difference!“

„Help me go to hell then. I'd rather go to hell now. Don't all homosexuals deserve to go to hell? Maybe more people would understand me in hell.“

On a scale of Let Free the curse of Taekwondo (painful journey but hopeful ending) to 180 Degree Longitude Passes Through Us (Painfully ambiguous journey and devastating ending), how much will Your Name Engraved Herein hurt me? How many weeks will it take for me to stop sobbing, yada yada?

this movie killed me so...I made a playlist

[meljwrites]

have you ever watched your name engraved herein

I'm reading a lot of comments after the end of The On1y One where people are saying " Oh noooooo...what an heartbreaking end!!!! But what could we expect from the director of Your Name Engraved Herein??? That man loves sad endinggggggg" and I'm like 🤔🤔🤔 have we watched the same episode 12?? Have we watched the same movie YNEH???

Because at the end of the day Tian and Wang are just 1 floor apart at the moment, they will still live tg at the dorm...episode 12 end gave me hope for a future for their blooming romance and left me with a positive sensation despite the lack of communication and fear of feelings of 2 teenagers while YNEH was :

180 Degree Longitude Passes Through Us*

Moonlight Chicken

Sing My Crush*

Tokyo in April is

ALSO, currently airing Unknown and Gray Shelter.

With regards to ITSAY I am not your huckleberry but here's what I got for ya...

And pulling from the "moody arthouse smackdoodle" list in this post about BL's dark side:

Your Name Engraved Herein (Taiwan 2020 Netflix) - this movie is fantastic but it is also seriously depressing, it’s a self acceptance journey, but if you wanna wallow in high quality acting and serious gay drama, this’ll do it. 

Goodbye Mother AKA Thua Me Con D (Vietnam 2019 Netflix) - like YNEH this is a great movie but it deals openly with homophobia, bashing, family trauma and social acceptance. 

For Love, We Can (Hong Kong 2014) - an indie movie about parental homophobia, light/dark pairing, and (of course) HIV. 

The Cornered Mouse Dreams of Cheese AKA Kyuso wa Chizu no Yume wo Miru (Japan 2020) - obsession, cheating, breakup, reunion, then break up again, explicit. 

Pornographer movie series - AKA The Novelist, Mood Indigo, Pornographer Playback (Japan 2018-2020) emotional manipulation, cheating, obsession, seduction, May/December (age gap AKA younger/older), kink, touch of necrophilia, explicit.   

Method (Korea 2017) - May/December, actor idol pairing, that should have been everything I wanted in life but it’s more about the actor cheating on his wife and their weird “artsy” relationship and frankly, I hated this. And I don’t say that lightly. 

Itsuka no Kimi e (Japan 2007 YouTube) - okay this is basically about a college student who saves this boy from drowning and then gets embroiled in his, and his identical twin’s messed up lives. It goes very weird.

His the series AKA I Didn’t Think I Would Fall In Love (Japan 2019) - boy goes to visit his absent father ends up kinda homeless on the beach gets adopted by local family falls in love with the boy working and living with them. Lots of long drawn out glances. 

Innocent (Taiwan 2021 GaGa) - mental health, childhood trauma, actually kinda sweet. 

More on ISTAY et al here.

* are ones that I don't recommend if you have the same taste as me, but I DNF'd ITSAY so, you calearly don't have the same taste

I only realized later that he was called “Birdy”, not “Idiot.” He said Birdy was the title of a movie. It’s about two good friends - one is normal, the other is crazy. The name of the crazy one is Birdy.

❝I didn’t like it when you said everyone was your friend, too. Shit, it’s like─I don’t like that. I thought it was like we’d become close to each other again. So, I feel...equal to them. I don’t know how to explain it.❞ ─ teh, itsay
