the first ten mins is all you need to know
By far the most beautiful BL I have seen since 2017 when I started my first series.
I can't even tell you a partciular scene that stuck with me because all of them did. The golden duvet and that warmth of the sun, the opening shot with the car made me realise I was getting far more than what I was anticipating.
The framing, lighting and angles are simply eye watering, the cinematography is sublime. I think I have fallen in love, and it's no exaggeration. Someone in the comments said this is like "poetry in motion", a moving painting, and it couldn't be a better description.
This drama may not be for everyone: the story is slow, it begs patience from the viewer, and it will reach the right audience. It's more about experience (like art) than consumption. And whoever made this is clearly an artist.
It doesn't feel like a BL at all, but a slow, beguiling documentary about everyday people, even making stars and crew seem mundane and very much human. And that's exactly what this drama feels like - human, and so simple yet complex.
The only thing that's left to be determined is the acting. I feel there's not much expressions that tell a story (but it supports the viewer experience as a documentary), so I can't comment too much on this yet other than this. But the cinematography and music alone should make A Winter Sun be hailed as a "must watch"
Go and feast your eyes.
