Similar to Eternal Summer
Three high school students experience the perks and pitfalls of love in director Leste Chen’s sensitive tale of friendship and yearning.
Jonathan / Kang Cheng-hsing
Shane / Yu Shouheng
Carrie Tu
Although it is a bit ponderous and retreads well-trodden ground of queer cinema--the unrequited, sexually confused love triangles of teenagers--Eternal Summer is more restrained, skillful, and affecting than most attempts to tell this story. The unusual Asian setting helps to further distinguish it. The actors are decent, the writing is decent, the cinematography is competent if amateurish ... It's worth a watch.
