This movie was just so amazing. I
honestly don't know how to praise it
but I'll still try my best to write my
opinion about it. So as the synopsis

says, it's a story about three people who
were connected to a man who died 95
days ago due to cancer. Those three
people are his wife, his son and his "male
lover". yeah that's right the guy was gay.

Now even though Taiwan is the most
acceptable asain country i knew that
there were homophobia still there. And
the movie highlights that homophobia.

As an Indian person, I really relate with
the movie. Not that I had a gay husband
or something I'm in highschool lol but

what I relate with was how the society
was portrayed. How the wife was
presurized to do some things so her
husband doesn't cheat on her. All just
feels home cuz I've seen these things
with my own eyes and it hurts to see how

backwards we are. The homophobia too.
Atleast they expected the fact he was
gay. Here they don't do even that. I know
I know it's a review about society and
all but that aspect of it was very real and I

loved that. BLs often sugarcoat the
reality. But this one didn't. Well I wouldn't
call it a BL . It's more like a movie with

feelings. It really touched my heart, made
me cry. Yeah I cried. Not much I don't cry
like a baby lol y'all know me. It's rare for
me to tear up after watching some thing
but this movie really made me cry. I felt

sad for the guy, the wife and the son and
the dude that died too even though he
was a little selfish in my opinion still. (
Sorry I don't remember their names lmao )
ok ok I don't wanna say more things. But
this movie really touched my heart. I
haven't watched a Taiwanese movie ever

and I'm really glad this is my first
taiwenese movie. I don't think I'll be able
to forget about this story. The acting was top-notch. It was just
perfect. Every thing was perfect.
