Bishonen ... Beauty ( Chinese 美少年之恋 , Pinyin Měishàonián zhi Liàn , Cantonese Meisiunin zi lyun ) is the ninth film by the Hong Kong-Chinese director Yonfan .
action
Jet is a handsome young man (a so-called bishōnen ) from Hong Kong who finances an expensive life in the big city by being supported by other men. As these men fall in love with him in a row, he seems to be barred from ever falling in love. One day, however, he falls in love with a handsome policeman. This one, although gay himself , only allows a friendly relationship.
Reviews
“In his first feature film, the well-known fashion photographer Yonfan tells a love story with a lot of empathy and sensitivity in beautiful pictures. This film is just worth watching! And not just for fans of romantic love dramas - the film has a bit of everything: great love, sex, coming out, jealousy, beautiful men ... For romantic wallowing on a mild summer night or just something to look at! "
“This romantic and sensitive love story from Hong Kong is often reminiscent of films like Wong Kar-wai's“ Happy United ”in its narrative flow. Using the example of the love life of five young men whose paths cross, director and ex-photographer Yonfan mainly dives into the gay scene in Hong Kong. "
