Bones and Names
The looming escalation of the relationship conflict is already clearly noticeable. Even if the initial argument between Boris and Jonathan is just a script reading. Boris and Jonathan have been a couple for a long time. Jonathan is doing research for his new novel, which will grapple with decay and death. Boris, on the other hand, is increasingly enjoying himself in the film role of a man who steals the husband from a married woman.
Play and life threaten to merge. The scenes between the two men are not melodramatic, but a reflection on relationships that is as clever as it is entertaining, both mundane and excessive at the same time.
