Featured review
repetition in this foreign LGBT
Feeding the Boys -- a very sexual reference, in that women provide nourishment for their young by giving mother's milk, and what do male prostitutes provide? feeding the boys... pretty rough analogy. the writer slash director way over does the constant bible thumping; our star's unmarried brother is a religious fanatic, not only always harping on his brother, trying to get him to find a more respectable occupation, but standing on the street, and waving the bible back and forth, chanting. and when the zealot croaks (god's wrath ?), he convinces his girlfriend to continue his street corner philosophy. there ARE some good points here... honest efforts on the part of both brothers to see the other's side, and they do have numerous, serious discussions, but the repetition of the argument "soar to the heavens" or "flow downhill, like the rivers" goes on and on and on. any sane person would have left the room, or the house, rather than keep repeating the same thing over and over. and we keep seeing them do the same routines on the bridge. needed more material. this would have made a great short film. needed better editing. there are some great scenery of Beijing. good to see these types of issues being discussed in china, where such things were forbidden for so long. Written and directed by Zi'en Cui. has eleven directing credits, as of today. seems to focus on LGBT life and religious themes in some of them. it's good, but would have benefited by leaving much of the repetition on the editing floor.
