This was the first of the videos that started a trend of sex education videos in the early 1990s . I guess the idea behind it was for liberated women to go into a high street store and buy it without any type of guilt or inhibition , but no doubt the main buyer market was teenage boys and dirty old men
THE LOVERS GUIDE is groundbreaking in the fact that it publicised that the couples involved were real life partners but this is slightly dishonest , yes the main couple featured Wendy and her husband were indeed a real life couple who'd been married several years but there was some public controversy that at least one of the couples Kathryn ( The gorgeous brunette ) and Marino ( The well buffed geezer with a ponytail ) had never met one another until they appeared on set where they had unprotected sex for the camera . For a video that self righteously dedicates segments to safe sex it is rather hypocritical
Seeing as it's for education purposes and not pornography as such there's limits as to what can be shown but as a sex education video it's not uninformative though I doubt if you'll be gasping " I never knew that "
As a footnote the main couple featured became something of sexual problem agony aunts in the British press - Until it was revealed that Wendy's husband had a serious heart condition which put a stop to sex . I almost felt sorry for this couple who confessed that they used to make love as often as ten times a day but now couldn't make love once a day because it was too dangerous . My small amount of sympathy soon vanished when shortly afterwards the couple split up and raced off to the gutter press in order to dish the dirt on one another to the highest bidder .
叙事结构真的有点平，除了戳爷和男二的颜不错，再来配乐不错，听听歌看看颜值也没啥了，与其说三个月是等待HIV结果，不如说是一段夏日短暂的艳遇吧，等待检测的过程也没有深入的冲突，甜也没有特别甜，霉霉风评再次被害，看完记住一个教训，男人靠不住，姐妹常永久。
1.…见了那个斯拉夫男子，他知道1962年后的每一届奥斯卡最佳女主角获得者，所以我和他发生性行为了。2.…上一次我唱K的时候，我唱砸了我最喜欢的鲍伊的歌，我到现在仍觉得是耻辱。…… 3.看到片中有蛮多中文注释，感觉字幕组还挺用心的，但这样一部美国电影中的英语台词“1805”不直接翻译成“1805年”而翻译成“大清朝”，我表示无语；4. Oh, and fuck you for making me like Taylor Swift. 5.末尾听到 David Bowie《Five Years》惊喜一下，印象中，在我看过的电影里难得有影片使用这首歌当插曲。……
成长就像骑着一台双人脚踏车，你不能指望你的后面能永远有人，没有人一起，才是常态。虽然是有些鸡汤的青春成长，但真情实感的影像真的很动人。（泪点低加上最近又又又又又获得妈妈支持的我后三十分钟一直在哭）糖果色彩真的好可爱，虽然不知道导演怎么搞的，但是居然能把过山车都刷成好看的颜色，真是太可爱啦！
喜欢超市狂欢 也喜欢双人自行车悠哉悠哉 精准捕捉恋爱里的小心思 无数次焦急的怕自己等不到
7，中规中矩，角色矛盾冲突都为了推动剧情，然后主角成长，hiv也只像是一个助推器，讨论的深度与内容也浅尝辄止。
我真的好喜欢！无论是场景色调还是音乐都给我满满的幸福充实感，尽管有爸爸朋友的离去以及得病的隐患，但我感觉到的只有满满的幸福感，重来没有过的观影感受。夏天的佛罗里达真的好美
原来这就是戳爷，果然是经得起考验的颜，怼脸拍依然美。那浓浓的艺术少年感有几分甜茶的错觉，突然也发现他和甜茶演GAY时候的差距。清新的小GAY青春片，截取了艾滋是否确诊前的三个月，本就茫然的少年在各种转折前面对生活和爱。
不会一直停留在夏天，夏天逝去，醒来。一场梦也好。
必须要为戳加一颗星
珍惜陪伴你的人，“会有人全心的爱你”!
好羡慕 Caleb 有 Dara 这样的 partner in crime
那个发生在夏天的故事，它在夏天还没结束的时候就结束了。两个等待进入大学校园的男孩，一样等待HIV检测结果，也许是同理心的作用，能为对方完美补上还未说出口的词，阳光，海滩，游乐园，爆米花，注定能氤氲一段假期crush。戳爷演技有点厉害，剧情很直线，亲情的铺垫与提点也没有抢戏，宗教的约束透过妈妈对Caleb的敬而远之来呈现，似乎婉转，又似乎更残忍。果然是21世纪10年代的设定，大环境看起来友好很多，也许无论有多少龃龉，世界总是向好而行吧。
佛罗里达很梦幻 奶奶很暖 死党很义气 戳爷奶帅奶帅的 可惜没献唱一曲
waiting doesn’t mean u shut down...turn urself into the kind of person that lets the world decide who u r. I mean, you wait, but you wait with your f**king fist in the air.
6/10。导演处女作？ Troye的个人色彩还是过于强烈了，and严重怀疑导演就是戳的粉丝吧，哈哈哈哈。 去掉很多MV式的画面，剧情更加紧凑一些其实立意不差。 就是女闺蜜的感情戏明显有点水了，既然这样还不如不去刻画。 如果是戳的粉丝，那么还是好看看的。
片子把戳爷拍得还是挺美的，有点像甜茶，但是情感刻画以及落脚点确实不敢恭维，这个男主的设定也不讨喜，一直是家人和朋友在承担他的戾气却没有feedback. p.s本片会收到霉霉律师函警告。
虽然这部电影充斥着fuck，但是却是一部正视HIV的片子，戳爷的脚很雕塑
轻巧灵动的青春小品，讨喜的是议题很大但触角很小。宗教取向与少年成长没有形成庞大的负担就已经讲完了，但同样会显得浅尝辄止。亚裔女闺蜜形象酷酷的，虽然设置成lesbian实在是有点刻意。
看个电影还能看见自己学校的客串 但是是好看的 一种让人觉得life isn't so bad 的film
夏天的海边，不安的人和事，都是过客，每个人终究要自己往前走，不停歇的时间铸就了过去和现在，也正在走向未来。
