We know the parents are dead, we know Paul is dead bc of the ending, but Adam I always thought was dying, or being worked on in an ambulance or in the hospital. Paul represents the present and what could be but it’s too late and parents what was and also too late but Adam is the present in come like state in his head.. u can watch this multiple times

The best thing about this movie is it doesn’t spoon feed u anything. It doesn’t tell you anything and. 45 mins into you still have no idea what you’re watching. —you big gentled hearted teddy bear. I know you’re sensitive and it’s why we like ya but I did not see that much emotion coming, thank you for sharing that with us. -if u get a chance to rewatch it or show your wife you’ll pick up on a lot more especially in the beginning, especially with the theories that exist.

This is a beautiful behind the scenes video about the film. https://youtu.be/OVQ-7J8RHxM?si=RLFq6cnhmLbhXQJT

No sweetheart, you’re absolutely correct it isn’t a bad thing it’s life and life is our teacher. We were blessed to have had them in our lives in the time we were given, and they will forever remain with us. Merry Christmas and much love to you, your life, those who love you and you loved in return. May abundance of love, growth and compassion for our fellow humanity and all creatures great and small.

I got you. It also helps me while watching movies like these, knowing that I'm sharing the experience with people like you. And yes I have your recommended. Even imagining those words can be very healing. Because this movie clearly showed us how much his parents improved and became more accepting over time

Franklin

ah Laura. many hugs! Sometimes I don't even think we ever get over loved ones passing or even if we're supposed to. Part of us is gone forever. And I think that doesn't have to be a bad thing

The moment you cried when his parents disappeared I cried as you say an ugly cry. I am a great grandmother. I lost two sons to the war, one in Afghanistan and one in Iraq. I never recovered. When I lost both my parents, even though I was in my 60s and they lived a long good life. It was the strangest feeling that overcame me that I was a 60 year-old orphan.Never be shamed of letting cleansing tears come straight from your soul through your heart and out your eyes. Had I been there? I would’ve sat quietly with you.

I was too scared to watch this by myself so thx for being my movie watching buddy :^) It makes me think of what I would say to my Dad if I talked to him in the way Adam talked to his parents at the diner, and what he would say to me--I think it could be healing to think about that

Wow that is such good info. Thanks

Franklin

Yes yes, I forgot to mention how everyone always says he feels hot. Brilliance!

Amanda Hill

aw thank you so much sending hugs back at you 🫂💛 Watching this a second time is a good idea. I'll do it so I can keep an eye on all those important moments with greater context Please let me hear all your theories when you can

Franklin

Holy shit this just melted my brain. Probably all dead the whole time. And everybody keeps checking Adam's temperature and telling him his hot - maybe a link to the fire? I like that the director left it to interpretation. It can meet different people in different places and stages of their phone grief. Hug received 🫂 gracias

Franklin

I love this and how you worded it. I think this movie will impact anyone who has suffered any kind of loss in a different way💛

Franklin

I love this so much. My wife and I were talking about the movie this morning and she brought this to my attention. How the daddy instantly stopped talking indicating him dying instantly. And the mom not being able to see and her still staying for a little bit longer. So perfect Melissa

Franklin

It struck me that in the diner scene, he shares words of love with his dad and his dad sort of disappears behind his own eyes - and I remember his dad died instantly. Then, his mom interjects about not seeing him bc of her eyes. And her last words "such a kind and gentle boy" -- I'd like to think she said that when she died and repeats it here. Adam said he never got to see her in hospital. What a scene. 😭😭😭 and also the golden light. So so beautiful and heartwrenching

Melissa

I was completely broken the first time I watched this - not much better now to be honest! Such a honest raw reaction from you. Definitely a film that speaks to our own feelings of loss in a way which is somehow devastating and enriching at the same time. As someone from the UK who remembers the 80s, there were a lot of clues to what was happening early on which would have been much harder for you to spot - clothes, decor, cultural references. Having said that I don’t think it diminished the film for you at all.

So a commonly held theory, that I also subscribe to is that they were in purgatory the entire time. I think Adam died in a fire in the beginning, Harry had been dead for a while. Obviously Adam’s parents had been dead for a long time. Harry and Adam being the only ones in the building is one of the big tells of this for me, you barely see anyone out in public but in places like trains, going somewhere. Also when Adam gets on the train he is coughing uncontrollably (like he was in a fire). The director left all of that up for interpretation, wanting the main takeaway to be the themes of grief and love. When I saw this movie in theaters, I was a WRECK afterward. I just wanted to hug you! Thank you for sharing this reaction with you.

Amanda Hill

I've never wanted to reach through the screen and hug someone as much as I wanted to hug you as you sobbed. Trust that I was sobbing along with you. This is my 2nd viewing of the film -- I honestly think knowing it all in advance made it even heavier yet it allowed for me to really hone in on the message of the movie. I have theories about certain aspects, but my eyes are too dry to type them now. Thanks for another pure and heartfelt reaction.

Melissa

It's funny watching queer movies as a queer person because most of the time it's not realistic. This was the first movie that I really felt connected to and that must be because the director and Andrew Scott himself, as queer people, brought a personal burden to the film, the director even used his own childhood home to film the scenes.

can't wait to bawl my eyes out to this later 🥹
