    I think josh is the only actor i've seen ever to act out a sex scene as accurately as possible. You can see how he shakes and he's breathless and you can feel and see the primal hunger we all experience when having intercourse. Right there, i'm convinced that this guy is an exceptional actor. Probably one of the best in our generation. And after watching this interview, i realized that he's a completely different person from johnny. I almost don't recognize this man at all. That's how you know josh is one heck of a talent. Hollywood needs more of him.

    • @sehunnyexo89

      No wonder that movie appeals to a lot of straight women and chic non-straight young adult males. GOC is amazing! I feel like it's a very honest film, I really like the characters' dynamics and I feel like it's really romantic, how one is reluctant and not really emotional, but willing to give in to another guy's tenderness and care, providing the intimacy that he lacked. I think a lot of masculine men might relate with that, not willing to open up, or they try to find for someone to provide to intimately. For CMBYN, I see it as toxic, I never really thought of it as romantic. An older guy lusts over a teenager, while a teenager longs for the guy that is showing indifference, and that indifference causes him to want the affection of someone 'hard-to-get.' Elio's character was complex, Oliver's wasn't. Plus the age gap is disturbing, Elio's infatuation had lead to misery, and the fact he probably knows it's gonna come to that. I see it as tragic than romantic/love.

It literally made me cry tears of pure, unadultered joy, which was in stark contrast to the large majority of LGBTQ+ movies, which are painfully sad. This, this gave me hope for happy endings in relationships that are not heterosexual in nature. Gorgeous film, amazing actors and just--SO GOOD.

      Yes.

    • @McFred1065
      @McFred1065 Před 5 lety +1

      @Juan Alarcon, not the only person Juan, it made me think of Brokeback Mountain too... but there are also differences that have been mentioned before. John knows he is interested sexually in men, but is not emotionally invested in anything... and then Georghe comes and shows him how to care and how to love. The part when they are day and night working on the fence and with the caddle alone and in the cold that is where the resemblance to Brokeback Mountain appeared, but you can’t deny the “in your face” fighting/love making scene in God’s Own Country when John and Georghe had rough sex in the mud literally... and other than having a hopeful happy ending, this is not a journey of someone struggling with their sexuality, it is a journey about someone learning how to open as a human being, to express emotions and feelings and to care about something! Cheers.

      Tanmoy Samanta except these guys didn't betray their heart by marrying women like the Brokeback Mountains guys did, lol

      This film is partially based on the writer/director’s personal experience growing up in a farm, whereas Brokeback Mountain is fiction, so there might be similarities but definitely not a copy, for obvious reasons...

      They’re completely different movies. There relationship is nothing like the men in brokeback mountain. As well as the characters themselves and the cinematography

      When I watched the trailer that was my initial reaction. I was even apprehensive to watch it thinking & asking why would they even try to copycat a masterpiece such as Brokeback Mountain? But after watching the film, I realized that the only similarities between the 2 films are the gay theme & farm setting. And that was it. The rest is nothing like Brokeback Mountain.

    God, why are str8 people even allowed to talk about gays on film. The interview is so weird and circumlocuitous.

      The word is : acting.... He's an actor, pretend to be someone he's not, it's his job......
      It's even an industry, so don't be a woke drama cu.... troll

    Minute I watched this movie it was an instant favorite and still is after probably the 20 times ive watched it!
    So well done. A happy ending I for one desperately needed to see in film.

      In my opinion, if you want some film have happy ending , i think you can watch Shelter( 2007) or Man in an orange shirt( 2018) . Beside, if you want bad ending make your heart sting a bit , i strongly recommend Weekend (2011), Free fall ( 2013).
