A beautiful man and a handsome man. And I'm not even gay but I'm not blind either. For those of us that can see, we can see what's what and it's very clear.
Considering that you're a straight man, what you said is beautiful. I wish straight men didn't feel uncomfortable admitting when they see a handsome man, There's nothing wrong with it.
Colin Firth's charisma combined with the blinding beauty of Kortajarena, the look and expressiveness of both, the masterly direction make this scene unforgettable and incredibly seductive...
I read all the comments about Jon and honestly I can't take my eyes off Colin, I like his refinement, the way he carries himself, the feeling of experience I get from him. Jon is too polished for my taste, although I believe he's beautiful I can't get to the point of feeling any attraction towards him.
Just to translate a little; when he says “All you need is someone to like you” the more direct translation would be “All you need is someone who would like you for real.” And the verb “querer”is used for like and love interchangeably in many cases sooo
I've always felt that the implication was that Carlos is a serial killer: note the huge movie poster of "Psycho" in the background and Carlos mentioning his mother. "Sometime awful things have their own kind of beauty."
I never saw that myself, but there's certainly an easter egg vibe from Tom Ford there. I always found this to be very touching. Initially, he plans to use him, but the moment of intellectual attraction in Spanish, as well as physical, and the beauty in horror observation is what makes the connection between them all the more authentic. This is further made clear by the use of the beautiful albeit frightening eyes backdrop. I never found it creepy, though it does highlight a predatory nature in age differences within, but not limited to, the gay community. Yet it is dispelled here when Carlos admits, in ways, that he too has been used. Its such a well made movie and I've heard it's also a great book.
Rented the DVD recently and adored the film from beginning to end. I was particularly impressed by the details- like the tie with a Windsor knot all laid out with the rest of the outfit the Colin Firth character wished to be buried in.
Really? Because he’s “better looking?” Not because of talent or skill? See, people like you are what’s wrong with the world, contributing to beauty privilege and and this idea of meritocracy.
As a spaniard I would say ''tu español es perfecto'' rather than castellano, non spanish speakers don't know that spanish can be called castellano. Even latinamerican spanish speakers associate castellano with spaniard accent spanish
