Girl had me stressing!!! Talking about the film with Nat afterwards made me appreciate some of its narrative choices more. And reminded me of an ongoing life theme of letting go of expectations~
might come back with my thoughts properly but for now I am happy I get to be on this wavelength. I didn't know my cinematic wet dream involved batshit crazy early 2000s cgi... the inner dialogue was delivered so well and repetition of phrases, poetry.
a lot of experimentation (which I wholly enjoyed and appreciated) and overall deep but v fun
This was not the Barbie movie I, my mum, or most of the audience (young families and tweens) that packed out the humble Dumaresq Street Cinema, expected. A gender essay dressed in kid's film, I don't know how parents will explain the "patriachy" to their sons and daughters. That in itself doesn't make it bad, I'm sorry I love you Greta and Noah, but despite it's relevant societal criticisms, it's still too superficial to land with me. Makes a good film to use as an English HSC text...
Also why did wheelchair Barbie only appear in the first musical act :((
