being a work from home writer defines isolation - if he had a job to go to, he would have had more people contact, so I see why he gave Adam this situation. I chose to go to this film alone because I knew I was going to cry. I saw Broke Back Mountain in the theaters 7 times - there were no streaming services in those days and the DVD would not come out for a long time. Last year, I discovered Andrew Haigh's Weekend and declared it the best gay film ever made. (knocking out brokeback). I am not ready to dethrone Weekend. It's hard to not want to because Andrew Scott and Paul Mescal are so damn charismatic. Did you write a Weekend review??
(SPOILERS AHEAD) I'm surprised Andrew Scott didn't get an Oscar nomination as well. ... Agree with you about the gay relationship being secondary. ... The film is based on a Japanese book, but I believe Andrew Haigh changed quite a bit. It's not quite autobiographical, but fun fact: that was Haigh's actual childhood home. ... I too cried in the film ... I really struggle with the ending. It basically means that all of the film happened in Adams mind, that he and Harry never met again after the first encounter, and had he not turned Harry away, he'd probably still be alive. So, in a way, Harry's death is partially Adam's fault. Not sure what I'm supposed to take away from that. I did love the film though.
The story is from a Japanese novel. The the Andrew Haigh remote it his style. His both parents are alive. It wasn't the biopic story. Nevertheless it was a powerful story.
