| BEAUTIFUL THING (1996) | |
|
|
Jamie, an ostracized young man, seeks solitude in old films and he is neighbors with Ste. Ste is a popular athlete, but also is frequently abused by both his father and older brother. During one of Ste's cruel treatments he seeks shelter with his neighbor Jamie and this becomes the beginning of a friendship, which later turns into affectionate love. However, the common notion among those who surround them is against their secret love which challenges them emotionally as they fear aftermath of their love. Beautiful Thing is a wonderful love story that grows within the dead concrete buildings and powerful oppression of the social environment of the two young men. In the end, the audience is left with a touching cinematic experience that most people can relate to as they fall in love for the first time. |
