Writer-director Simon Chung, whose film Innocence put
him among the Ieaders of Queer Asian Cinema, raises the bar
once again with this extraordinary tale of sexual obsession,
unrequited Iove and psychological isolation - evoking imagery
and themes from such gay classics as Brokeback Mountain
and Boys Love that are equaI parts sensuaI, eloquent and
heartrending whiIe creating a mood and sensibiIity alI its own.
Boyishly cute Ming (Chi-Kin Lee) is a 22-year-oId Hong
Kong maIe prostitute whose party-boy ways land him in a
Christian reformatory camp. As the story unfolds recalIing his
relationship with his boyfriend and his ex-roommate - sharing
both drugs and "clients" with the Iatter - Ming faIls for Keung
(Guthrie Yip), a handsome, former drug addict who has been
assigned as his sponsor. When Ming and Keung each return to
the outside worId, they face an uncertain future both sexualIy
and emotionaIly - and wilI need to reIy on each other to
weather any storm on the horizon.
A hit at fiIm festivaIs around the world, End Of Love abandons
the usuaI themes of identity and coming out which are often characteristic of gay Asian cinema and presents a mature, involving and quite entertaining look at what it's Iike to be young and gay in modern-day Hong Kong. |
