Let me tell you the true symbolism of “Iguazu Fall Lamp”. It is not there without any meaning behind it.
It is a sing of powerlessness in face of nature and the future of their relationship, the inevitability of the deterioration of Rain and Phyau relationship. Also, it is the passion they possess that falls ahead forward and spirals downward towards an uncertain end, just like the never-ending Iguazu Falls.
The Falls, are the main symbol in world outclass director Wang Kar Wai’s legendary film, “Happy Together”. watched that film back in 2006, when it was just 11 years old, and I could barely understand anything, though it was already considered one of the greatest films in history and the best of Asia, it has gone down in my memory like it has just came out yesterday. I still remember the rawness, originality and insane coloring that made it eternal for me.
It is also regarded as one of the best gay films that turned Leslie and Tony overnight stars. My love, Leslie, may he find his peace, leaves a short but a legacy that surmount his great artistic style and passion for his craft and yearning of freedom that was stolen from him by toxic people around him.
So I was surprised to see that such series used Iguazu falls lamp as a metaphor to their story, and it holds the weight people failed to noticed.
