James Benning’s first film called The United States of America was a 1975 trip across the country, capturing its scenery through a car windshield. This second one also crisscrosses the nation, but without a car, carving it up instead into a series of static shots of just under two minutes, one for each state, presented alphabetically, from Heron Bay, Alabama to Kelly, Wyoming. The names of the places are nondescript, but the images attached to them are anything but, immaculately composed shots of landscape, cityscape and the spaces in between. As we move from A to Z, the images coalesce into a portrait of today’s USA, tracing out its fault lines almost in passing: fenced-off facilities, a river bed running dry, factories and refineries, run-down streets and gas stations, a camp under a bridge. The past is there too, seeping up through the songs and speeches that sporadically pierce the background noise or the motifs that evoke a whole career; the clouds, trains and cabins are stand-ins for films, not just states. As always, there’s time for more abstract thoughts too: each image may stand for a state, but representativity is slippery. Which state is more cinematic than the rest?
两星给gay主流爱情片。
Cheesy and cliché in a good way, quite an enjoyable and heartwarming flick. +1 for Netflix’s first gay holiday rom-com!
又好朋友到情侣的转变这种情节真的很让人拒绝，不过两个人发糖太少了，很多情节都是在说男主和家人和约会对象的事情，明明两个人之间还可以有更多的心动情节安排，不过颜值可以了，最后也是HE！
反正我是不相信现实生活中有人会不选择人设完美的James而选择相处更像姐妹的好友，认识八年都没在一起过个圣诞就突然来电了？全片唯一让我磕糖的地方反而是滑完雪后James猝不及防的拥吻，有点霸总那味了，奈何是个百分之百工具人。如果这个镇上真的有James这种完美还单身的人的话，我是很乐意去定居的哈哈（btw：有必要重新开始好好记录自己看过的每一部电影
老套的异性恋的皆大欢喜主题电影，变成了同性而已。现在的编剧连脑子都不愿意动了么。
但前面一大部分还是值得好好打磨
為了Urie 小可愛🎄希望他能多點演出機會！
颜不错┐(´-｀)┌
就，圣诞节就需要一些烂俗的剧情！就这样就挺好！
故事老套，虽然黑白配但是黑人小哥太tm养眼了！
很老套但是场景设计很美，就是这对太姐妹了惹，磕不起来。
Oh my god, the script is so shit. You can’t force people to fall in love. The family is obnoxious to the point the film is not enjoyable any more.
健身教练和越狱男主是一对可太震撼我了。尘封旧梦被唤醒。其他都是啥？
【6.0】基本就是把小妞电影的剧本换成男男主演，还是挺有节日氛围的，可以一看。
“Cute but not very realistic”, said by both of us
还算可以叭 轻松愉快小甜饼 两个男主挺可爱的 看得俺嘴角上扬就没下来过hhhh
好烂的剧本… 圣诞合家欢也不能这么无聊吧 and luke真的😍之前夜班医生就好喜欢…
温馨的爆米花电影。因为同志电影多了半星。里面的James太帅了，气质是我的天菜。我的天呐。太好看了。
虽然俗套还是不错看呜呜呜😭就很适合圣诞的温暖开心电影
剧情很弱，但是男主真的颜值太高了anyway比较适合圣诞节单身gay看的电影。
