Got me teary eyed right now😭😭

That line got me too 😢

Meh

​@@imissdinklebot9741 Did your mother abandon you?

Same❤❤❤❤❤❤

I cried here too. That was me standing out in that field at the end. :-)

You really need to watch more films.

@@jamk2668Yh no offence but damn what about the green mile good will hunting Schindlers list and many more emotional films I did cry to this but not like the others

@@evenyou_brutus okay that does make sense ❤️ i do cry and get emotional when I’m thinking about people I love very much and movies are subjective to individual people

@@jamk2668God forbid anyone feel more emotionally connected to a film due to it reminding them of their late mother and grandmother after 50 years.

you're right!

absolutely. I left the theater and looked at every human (in the grocery store) with love that day.

Me too!!!❤❤

Because Men are not seen, or treated, as human.

@@jackdeniston59in what sense?

In fanfiction speak we call it "crack treated seriously".

I didn’t love Ken at all 😒 He was so annoying, desperate, whiny and needy . The Ken tries to take over Barbie Land part was awful to me . I didn’t enjoy it at all . And even though I didn’t like Ken I still didn’t like how mean Barbie treated him throughout the movie either . Maybe it’s the casting. I know a lot of people love Ryan Gosling but I have never been a fan of his 🤷‍♀️ There were definitely parts of this movie I loved and definitely parts I did not !

​@@missyrose2154Ryan was funny though

wonderfully stated

@missyrose2154. I took Ryan gosling's "annoyingness" to be the major point. Many Women try sooooooo hard to be pleasing to people. They lose themselves sometimes, becoming clingy and whiny. The people they're trying to please then get annoyed by it, and frankly bored then disgusted with this woman for not having her "own identity". So the woman goes to the opposite extreme, deciding that men are the problem and they need to be squashed. Thus, taking down the patriarchy. And then her line "humans make up things like the patriarchy to deal with how uncomfortable..." it is to be human. Men and women must love and respect ourselves to see that pleasing someone else is not our purpose...

Me too. It killed me.

watched this w my mother when it premiered on my bday and i was BAWLING then she held my hand WHICH MADE THE TEARS WORSE lol

this SCENE JUIKLKED NE MENTALLY i am crying again from watching in jeesus fucking christ mate

@@tasha1751reading this made my heart melt even more and now i crying even more!!!

Aber sicher doch 🤣

Me too

thank you for sharing, i did too definitely. i hope you're doing well

I could only roll my eyes because of how stupid I thought this whole movie was. lol

@@sose6255 just say you hate women and move on, you probably thought this was some anti-men shit when its literally poking at the patriarchy and making fun of it 💀kens storyline is huge in this movie and it's the exact opposite of what all the negative reviews make it out to be. L

@@savspicious I just didnt liked the movie lol

I kind of wish there were a few more sad images in there to show that when you embrace being human, you embrace ALL of the experience.

No-one really videoes or pictures those moments, just the parts that we never want to forget

​@@jillcncthinking about the happy days that you'll never get back to is a lot of the sad part

I think she died in real life from cancer. She was a friend of Scott Evans I think

​@@rhiannon1251she did, that's why the film version of her said she had a double mastectomy.

Yes...my husband said the same thing!❤

You are a boy

Im a grown man and I was hiding my face during this scene because of how much it hurt, and had to take a couple hours after the movie to let that feeling out. Now I just listen to this song when I want my numb body to remember what it feels like to be human.

Same...at the theatre I was the only guy by myself, so my eyes got watery...but I held it in as much as I could. Then, on the way home I cried silently in my car, and then when I got home I cried some more. When she said the words "being a human can be pretty uncomfortable"..."humans make things up like patriarchy and Barbie just to deal with how uncomfortable it is"...that 'stung' quite a bit, as it made me realize why 'we' do what we do or why 'we' are how we are sometimes. It brought me back to myself too. The movie was incredible, I had to purchase the Blu-Ray.

@@llllPsycho you deserve love and acceptance just as anyone else does. I wish the best for you. Cry it out, brother

This comment brings a tear to my eye 🥹 thank you for writing it so I can see that it’s all worth it in the long run. I’m a single mum of 3 beautiful young kids …amazing kids 🥹…and am raising them without a support system. Their father ran off to live his own life and my family kind of became tired of me, and slowly stopped returning my calls as I suffered such severe depression after the divorce and it was “too much” in their words… as I’ve also been close to bedridden for 3 years with severe back pain that no doctor I’ve seen can figure out. I’m currently unable to work because of my health issues. Don’t receive child support -as their father refuses. I’m weeks behind in rent and I’ll never catch up. I need support from my parents more than ever! but they’ve discarded me until I sort myself out. I cry every day… not all day, but every day 😔 most days I get the feelings that I don’t want to be here anymore. I’m holding on for my little ones, my whole life is for them. And I’m hoping they will feel this kind of appreciation when they grow up, and not feel like I held them back. That’s my biggest fear 😔 this song and the words spoken just encapsulate where I’m at in my life right now… wondering what my purpose is, or if I have one at all. That’s just surviving, that’s not living. Argh I’m so sorry for the long response, it’s a hard night for me! I haven’t spoken about adult things for a few weeks so I’m taking the opportunity! 😂 Bless you… and bless your mother. Warmest wishes for your new year, I can only hope that my sons turn out to respect single mothers in the same way. X

❤ very touching scene

That's beautiful as we dont always know how to live or to die, and illness is a frightening one as I'm terminally ill. I've been on a crying but mostly alone, so I don't become cynical or live without appreciating my mom and the rest of my family and friends, but sometimes you need to cry but being a man isn't about not crying or being told when your younger that there are rules to something that can be so sad and pathetic that you loose yourself in an empty sea of others who don't know or always want to know, but then it leaves you in a darker place if they can't have empathy or are just nasty to people that they walk all over them, as they haven't a clue what's going on with you or even care, but I thank God for living at a time where at least I hope, for the better if they can feel and I for 1 care about most everyone. It's the hate I want to escape from here on Earth and I pray to God that it won't be long and torturous due to a completely horrible man that I hope to God he doesn't win as the violence will be more horrific and all out civil war and everyone will be negatively against us and the world. But i hope that doesn't happen, but its more likely if that terrible man becomes the president and his cult would be all out violent and the divide of the US would be such a step back for all of us. God bless you all ❤

What happened to your dad?

@@DaveRave81I hope you’re still alive and I hope you’re happy and not suffering.

I was looking for a comment like this - this is how I understood it too! I felt like this scene was almost like God or “The Creator”speaking to a soul who is deciding whether to come to earth to experience life

Same here. A grown man in the theater crying like a baby. Going into the movie I was expecting nothing but man did the movie have a lot of heart

I am a woman. And this scene and the scene with the beautiful lady Barbie complements made me sob uncontrollably. I've been raised by a father who made sure I was not in contact with my mom until I got around 20. And this movie made me realize or rather re discover what it is to be a woman. Not just a human in general. Specifically a woman. And not in a sense of all societal thibgs. But this deep deep feeling of being a woman, feelings and living and experiencing life as a woman. I can't explain it very well. Society put tags and roles on all of us. What a good mother, wife, girl should look like, to fit, to be stereotypical Barbie... An ideal. A doll, that fit specific role, has her script written. And I just felt what a treasure it is to simply be a woman. In all aspects that make us. What it is to be a little girl, what is the connection with mother, what is it to be a grandmother,, wife. Not in a sense of being perfect idea, but just rather be... As a woman, treasured and put on this planet just as perfect as we are... I really can't find words to express it.

Thinking about just trying to find my/out purpose, I feel like there's more to it than simply experience everything and anything we possibly can in life. We're always experiencing and learning something whether we know it or are aware of it or not, consciously, subconsciously, maybe/possibly even unconsciously? As Ruth basically pointed out, we only have 1 life to _live._ Perhaps everything we can ever possibly experience is to prepare us for whatever comes next when we're ready to die, an afterlife, to which I believe when the time is right for each of us that we'll be set free of our own vessels and move on/ascend or whatever to our own (personal) afterlives, whatever it may be for each of us, as well as when, where, why, and however we want/experience/interpret it, and have absolute freedom of shaping/controlling it, and to be as we choose, the 5 Ws, who, what, when, where, and why, including however we want. At least that's my honest hope. But yeah, that's basically the conclusion I came to once Ruth speaks about how uncomfortable it is being human, the things we make up to avoid it and escape reality, and she's totally right! I believe this is something that's going to stick with me for the rest of my life and in a lot of ways it kind of scares me because there's honestly not much we can do but wait/live it out. That's pretty much all I feel I can do is wait to be free and move onto eternal desirable happiness/utopia.....😢😭

Neither did I. But I was open to the artistery and the two leads alone

No one did. The first time you heard that there was going to be a movie made about Barbie, pretty much everyone thought is was going to be this silly kids movie that has very little value after you’ve watched it. Something like Minions or Garfield.

The choice of colour palette too, so subdued with elegant and subtle inflections of colour is just wonderful

I’m so glad you’re alive!! ❤️ you are worthy!!

I stopped crying then I read your comment and started crying again.

we are kenough

Oh! Your comment made me so emotional! ❤ I cannot believe I’m actually crying! You’ve written it so beautifully

Your comment is the best thing I read in months. I am sending you only love and happiness 🤍

I know she's been nominated for an Oscar more than once in the past, but she BETTER win for this film. She really earned it with this one.

@@aharddaysnightmarelooks like Emma Stone will win it. SORRY

Yeah too bad the academy didn't feel the same way

@@rival121 I've been campaigning for Margot ever since Barbie was released but I saw Poor Things last week and Emma Stone definitely deserves the Oscar. Margot's performance was still fantastic tho.

​@@iHeartsNostalgiaPit they snubbed my girl. Both my girls actually as Greta Gerwig was also snubbed. Isn't it crazy that Ryan Gosling was nominated and not Margot when the movie is all about patriarchy and men ruling our world? Ryan was really great but he delivered a -one dimensional- comedic performance as opposed to Margot's complex and nuanced portrayal of Barbie. I really don't get it.

Same I started bawling 😭

Same here, the knowing how short that magical childhood time is just had me crying my eyes out.

ahhh that’s so coooolll ❤❤

I dont see it

​@@joshua27643:27

​@@joshua2764me neither.

its the second footage

Real emotional roller coaster 🤒

That movie was surreal and the final My tears twearking with ice pice was si odd j😅

They really marveld a serious moment didnt they?

Lmao that killed me 😂😂

it's so refreshing seeing comments from men like this! i also had the same experience. my mom was somewhat surprised because as a child i never even owned a doll, let alone a barbie. i was very scared about what barbie was going to be because it could have gone so wrong, yet it went so right. i have watched it twice but it is definitely one of my favourites. it's just so comforting, so well-done, so amazing. i will never be able to explain how good it makes me feel

@@PlusInHollywood is good for putting out movies aimed at a targeted demographic. There's something for everybody, just not always in the same movie. I walked into the theater thinking, "well, let's see what quasi-neofeminist messaging the boys in the boardroom thinks the target audience wants to hear. The, what can we do to pretend that we get it - message?" Let's face it, most studio boardrooms still look like the one in the Barbie movie. Ya know? So that was my mindset as I sat through the first showing. I could see there was maybe more there, but I just didn't know if I could trust the studio with the message. Mattel, Warner Bros. That's a lot of greedy hands ready to role the dice to see if they can get paid off of a tried and true cash cow, Barbie. I didn't want to let the Barbie movie sink in because I was ambivalent about the source of the material. So after the movie I consulted with a source whom I could trust, a woman dear to me. She had saw it with her daughter a few weeks earlier. She shared some things with me off the bat that made me think. So I decided to go back and see it again. Towards the end of the movie I was recalling some of the things she'd shared with me in that conversation about her journey as a woman, and her daughter's, and I thought about my daughter, and my mother, and my sisters, and other women I've known over a lifetime. I may not have been able to explore every emotional nuance in that moment, but in that moment I got something, and it made me feel a mixture of emotions. Pride, reverence, grief, encouragement, joy. If something makes you more instead of less empathetic, that counts as progress. To be honest, I can't hear that Billy Eilish song "What Was I Made For?" without revisiting that moment in a darkened theater, when a man learned to empathize just a little bit more, while he contemplated on the inner strength, and love women have to muster every day, just to enjoy the dignity that we men take for granted. I think the old adage goes that you don't know how strong you are until being strong is all you can be? I walked away from the second showing with a little more respect. It made me laugh. It made me cry. Yeah, it only took two showings, but I was entertained.

@@PlusIn Thanks for asking.

@@brianbeans2190thank you so much for putting these thoughts into words. i wish everyone could give this movie a chance as you have, it really sounds like you truly understood what your female friend was speaking of.

❤

ME TOO! There were so many sniffles lol it sounded like a giant group therapy session…well kinda was.

i was so excited for this movie but it felt like i was watching austin powers with a very forced "this is the part you cry now" scene at the end.... sooo disappointed

​@@molotochnik.imaybe you haven't felt scared or unsure about your future, what you're going to do, or what you are intended to do (in other words, what you were made for), but i have, and that's why this scene is so touching to me. it just felt like a warm hug from greta gerwig telling me "hey, it's okay to not know everything and to feel ugly and sad, we all feel like that". maybe it's also because i see it as a tribute to motherhood and mothers, and i realised how little i used to tell my mom i loved her (now i do it way more), so yeah. i do get why you might not see it emotionally, i went twice with friends and i was the only one crying both times!

I definitely wanted to cry but I forcibly held my tears in. I wish I had allowed myself to let go

@@ladymireyou can let go, it’s safe and healthy for us all to let go and cry. 🥲

Same. Community makes everything better. Not competition and being at each other's throats :(

Don’t we all

Funny I actually missed that part...I'm a filmmaker and an editor, I was focused on her breathing and didn't hear the heartbeat. Thanks for the tip, I'll go back to it now.

God i cant believe i missed that. It just adds so much more 😭

i cant hear it billie is trying so hard to be quiet but still failed😒

This. People keep overlooking how sincere and sweet Margot's Barbie is. 😢

Me too Margot is amazing ❤

Like, I can't control my tears of not to cry, I just can't

as a guy, i agree 100%. i’m sad that a lot of men who have seen the movie have disregarded the messages in the film; the big example i can think of is the golden globes host making those awful “jokes” towards the barbie movie. the film was truly a beautiful experience as a human, but i can only imagine how much more impactful it all was as a woman. regardless, i love the film so much

Stop speaking for all women. Many women I’ve seen didn’t find this movie meaningful.

​@xxxmaysilssss690 and why would you spoke for those women you knew?

@@pseud0moth except I’m not “speaking” for them. I’m relaying a common opinion I’ve seen from many women (including myself).

Yes. It's profound. The ending was truly profound psychologically...

I thought Barbie had an older origin, something about it being a joke toy for executives, originating in Germany.

People do not talk about Soul enough and it touched me deeply. As someone who is still looking for their "spark" it was like a shot to the chest. So good

I feel like they're very similar movies. They're both silly, surreal comedies, which makes it all the more powerful when they unexpectedly take you into a deeply emotional appreciation of the human condition.

Oppenheimer was a boring movie bro, trying to compare this to Barbie is crazy 😂

@@187420666es You're attempt at having an argument under the impression that i'm interested in thinking what a complete stranger has to say about my own subjective opinion is mildly amusing.

…….anddd thennnn… you realized women are human and deserve to be treated as such? Or did ya not connect those dots yet from that? 🤠

@@chronicalIyoffline What? Are you gonna flame them for realizing it too late? Better late than never. Calm down.

Y’all need to calm down. All the man said was that he enjoyed the movie and felt more connected to women and what it means to be human. You’re assuming a lot about his character. lol.

right!

So sorry for your loss! I lost my Grandma from my dad’s side this past week. Last time I saw her was six months ago at a family reunion

Death 😅

Same 😭 took me sooo long to watch it but I’m so glad I finally did. I needed to watch it so bad and at THIS point in my life too

here we are to learn and gather wisdom. And grow to higher ourselves

They seemed personal! I had a feeling aw ❤

Congratulations! That’s so amazing, I hope you have a lot of happiness in your future, you deserve it ❤️
