Se eu dissesse que não esperava nada estaria mentindo, mas é porque vi muitas pessoas falando sobre esse filme e até fui para a Netflix. Gostei muito da experiência de assistir, mas foi um pouco longa e cansativa, talvez eu não goste de dramas, mas acho que deveríamos sair da nossa zona de conforto às vezes, então aqui estou.Sobre a história foi triste, mas ao mesmo tempo tão bonita, uma linda história de amadurecimento com personagens LGBT, saber que era baseada em fatos reais tornou o filme ainda mais verdadeiro. Eu amei o formato em que a história foi contada de certa forma tornou o filme mais real? Porque normalmente a maioria dos filmes foca em apenas uma parte da vida dos personagens e nos faz pensar que fim eles levaram, o que aconteceu depois desse período conturbado da vida deles? Acho que de certa forma Your Name Engraved Herein nos trouxe uma resposta para isso.

"Seu amor é maior que o meu? Qual a diferença entre seu amor e o meu? Fala a diferença"
Assim que vi o primeiro trailer, meses antes do lançamento, eu soube que seria o tipo de filme que eu iria amar, que eu acabaria chorando e não foi diferente. Your Name Engraved Herein (Seu Nome Gravado em Mim) é uma verdadeira obra de arte 100% baseada em fatos reais (o que pesou ainda mais na história).O filme passa quando a lei marcial tinha acabado de terminar, então ainda assim temos uma sociedade machista e extremamente homofóbica, tanto que ao longo do filme temos mais de um exemplo do que acontece com aqueles que falam abertamente que são homossexuais. Então, é bem compreensível como tanto o Padre quanto o Birdy agem desde o começo do filme. Pelos trailers pensei que o Padre Oliver seria um personagem que eu odiaria, mas ficou impossível no momento que percebi que ele só estava tentando proteger o A Han.
Uma das cenas mais impactantes pra mim, é quando o A Han pergunta para o padre Oliver o seguinte: "Seu amor é maior que o meu? Qual a diferença entre seu amor e o meu? Fala a diferença" depois disso pra mim, foi tudo a baixo e no final do filme eu estava chorando enquanto os créditos subiam.
É uma verdadeira montanha russa de sentimentos, é um filme tão realista e tão cheio de emoção que é impossível não se comover. As atuações foram impecáveis tanto quanto a cenografia e a trilha sonora, principalmente a música do final com o título do filme, cada parte perfeita e essencial pra fazer um filme sensível e tocante como esse. Todo mundo deveria dar pelo menos uma chance para esse filme incrível que é, com certeza, um dos melhores que assisti esse ano.

Poignant gay film with BL elements
As I live in Taiwan, I eagerly awaited the release of this film, and watched it the day it was released. Because there aren't too many LGBT films released in theaters (especially in Asia), my expectations weren't that high; I was just excited to be able to see a gay (BL?) movie on the big screen. But this movie did not disappoint at all. The story invites you to the time when martial law has just been lifted, and times are clearly changing. After living in Taiwan for over two years, this was a welcome glimpse into a fascinating part of Taiwanese history.The pacing of the relationship was a little different than your typical BL, and the acting was on point. There are a few different reasons why I wouldn't consider this a BL, the most prominent being the absence of clear seme/uke (masculine/feminine) roles. The two lead characters are well-crafted, and the emotional complexity of their relationship far transcends most BL story lines. I would even consider going back to the theater just for one particular scene; which, although technically a sex scene, accomplishes everything without showing anything. I've been thinking about the passion and emotion of that scene all day.
I feel like this film includes all the great elements of a BL series, but removes the saccharine and adds a plaintive historical setting. The music includes a classic Taiwanese pop song as well as a new song, which includes the film's title. The inclusion of both neatly represents the time jump of the story. This film is a must-watch, and I hope it gets the international attention that it deserves. Both BL and cinema fans alike will enjoy it.

Suffering! It's not a happy story but It doesn't mean it's not a good and important one
So I just watched the movie here in Brazil on 2020 São Paulo International Film Festival and Jeez I don't know what to say, I should paid attention in the plot cuz I spent almost the whole movie thinking that Birdy was straight (it's not a spoiler since it's in the synopsis). I have liked it but this movie is just sadness and pain, I know it's based on a true story and what a drama story. The acting, photography, scenes, screenplay, everything so beautiful and well made. I can tell that I yelled and suffered a lot. Damn it! I was hoping for a kinda happy love story after all but it's okay tho. It's not a BL, It's a LGBTQ+ movie. I think it should win a lot of awards, I gave it 10 stars cuz made me suffer and I like that feeling when I'm watching movies but at the same time I don't hahaha I'm weird. I really like Taiwan, I wish I could go there someday.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
A story about two real humans!
Watch this film was a mix of feelings. This movie is about - without spoiler of course - two teenagers who are discovering themselves as homosexuals.In my opinion‚ this film is a masterpiece. It is well-written‚ well-directed‚ everything was perfect.
As I said: This is a story about two real humans and‚ as humans‚ there are pain‚ suffering‚ tears. However‚ there are happiness, desire - in a sexual meaning - and a happy ending after all the pain and suffering.
It was an awesome, amazing and great experience watch this masterpiece.
* This is my first review in English (I'm brazilian)

No sunshine and No Rainbows. Pure love with emotions.
A coming of age story that follows LGBT+ characters. This film is set in 1988 just after martial law has ended in Taiwan and follows the story of Han & Birdy throughout their self discovery and dealing with all that entails, both for themselves and the society they live in. One of the best Taiwanese film to be ever made. So beautiful! It's no sunshine and no rainbows, It was a rollercoaster ride of emotions. There were few references of "Happy Together", a classic Hong Kong movie. I cannot stress on how much I cried.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
It's eveything I ever wanted in a gay film
I appreciate movies that can effect me deep and touch my soul. The movie made me depressed for days. Even tho it's hard and I'm waiting for that feeling to fade away, but still the movie is a masterpiece and totally worth it. I waited SO long for a movie that feels REAL and it's finally here. I don't like it when people compare it to call me by your name. shame on you. What I like about this movie is that it showed what most of us went through, and still going through. Being gay is still not easy even if your country is cool with it now, still a lot of us had that complicated relationship no matter where you live it can happen anywhere and at any age. There are a lot of people who are afraid of their sexuality and would rather run away from it. I also loved that it was about love more than a sexual attraction. even that sexual scene between them was more emotional than sexual. They were really into each other emotionally so deep. I love this kind of love. The love that can be proven by so many ways bigger than sex. just pure love.What I didn't like much was the amount of deleted scenes! so many important scenes were missing. I wish there were more scenes that showed Birdy's love for A-Han. This is a movie to remember for decades to come.

Why can't we all have the love we think we deserve without judgement
Just freshly off watching it; I'm writing this with the feelings still in my heart. The story will break your heart to pieces, seeing Jia-han and Wang Po-te(Birdy) struggle with their feelings in a world where their love was just seen as a sin; As we see with a builled boy for liking boys and police going after a harmless man fighting for his right to just be. A great example of right person, wrong time.The acting was amazing; They had me bawling my eyes out while feeling their pain and heart racing at their chemistry.
The music was also amazing, in fact I have 'Your Name Engraved Herein' on repeat as I write this in my feelings.
The movie was so good it had me wanting to go back and watch it all over again once it was done. One thing's for sure; Won't think of wǎn ān the same.

"Is your love bigger than the love I give? What's the difference between your love and mine?"
a film about love and heartbreak that just left me in shambles. so beautiful in so many different ways.-it's a coming of age story that deals with every emotion life has in store for us like jealousy, confusion, love, anger, sadness, and heartbreak. it also revolves around religion as the two boys are in a Christian school and provokes the question of homosexuality and how it’s viewed as a sin. the inner turmoil when you’ve been taught that your love doesn’t belong. and you can feel absolutely all of it in this film. just by watching it's as if your own heart is being broken and being touched.
-the acting of everyone but especially the two main leads is exceptional. it’s such a raw and emotional film so it truly needed actors that could not only express it but make it feel real and man did they deliver. their intimacy, their touches, their tears, everything hit me right in my heart.
-the cinematography is absolutely stunning it left me in awe. the way the scenes were executed showed so much care and attention which in result, conveyed an emotion and intimacy you could just drown in.
this film will remain engraved in my heart. so please go ahead and watch it!

Lust, Love and this pain engraved here in....
This movie depicts one of those moments in time, and it does it painfully, bruttally and beautifully. The story is that of a boy who is struggling with himself, his surroundings and living in a world that treats people like him like dirt. Can he dare to love? Will the one he loves love him back? If So will ha dare to love him back in a world where men who love men are beaten, arrested and not oney treated like***** but also taught that they will go to hell.The pain in this movie is so powerfully conveyed that it went straight to my gut:
As this boy finds himself in so much pain that he practically beggs the "father" to be sent to hell:
"Don't all homosexuals deserve to go to hell? Maybe more people would understand me in hell"
These lines are accompanied by beautiful cinematography, well thought of accompaniment music and a variety of shots of happiness, youth, pain, insanity, hope, violence, pain, more pain. As well as a very clear depiction of the difference between Lust and Love as well as people crossing, no crushing other peoples boundaries.
The intense way of showing this boys struggles is very well made but I must warn you that some of the scenes here do cross the line between acceptable longing/loss of control and what should be seen as non consensual behaviour/assult, actually this movie has what one could understand as several scenes with different shades of sexual assult . So beware!
As you may guess this movie will probably make you feel something, it will not make you feel good, or have your heart fluttering but it will probably make you feel something...
