How is this the *_FIRST_* time I'm hearing of Lady Bird?!?!? Stephen's description just nearly brought me to tears: "I love the idea of attention and love being the same thing. That another vocabulary that you gave us all in the way to talk about love, and really, paying *_attention_* to other people (because love can be a 4-letter-word that scares us) but *_attention_* is something that we _all must pay_ " I NEED TO SEE THIS FILM IMMEDIATELY.

Omg please do watch it, as well as Little Women (2019) if you get the chance! Greta's my favorite director and both are incredible showcases of her talent, with LW being one of my fav movies. Part of the reason I got immediately on board with Barbie once it was announced was simply cause I heard she was involved (hoping she finally gets a best director award this year cause she still doesn't have one and it's insane). Also Saoirse Ronan stars in both and is AMAZING in both, her and Greta are an incredible duo

I remember so well that moment of being a girl heading into puberty who suddenly realized that society was going to try to mold me into plastic, to crush my dreams, simply because I was a girl. It began when the boys around me who had been friends started berating all girls as weak and stupid. The worst insults they could say to each other were, "You're like a girl" or "That's so gay!" In Gerwig's movie, Barbie's realization that there was a real, unfair, completely sexist world outside of her happy bubble was the perfect representation of that moment I (and every other girl) experienced. And, the movie was a riot! Haven't laughed so hard in ages. Thank you, Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie.

Didn’t believe I’d ever say this but seems like I have to agree with conservatives on that one. Barbie isn’t only terribly written in terms of its storytelling, it’s the black n white thinking and “Us and them”-mentality that makes me actually angry.

An incredible visionary filmmaker! Greta had tons of demands for Warner Bros in making Barbie movie, some of them were almost cut by the studio but she fought hard to make the scenes be in the final cut and at the end of the day, she got what she wanted. Brilliant, they couldn't have pick a better filmmaker to make Barbie 👏

@Sam_on_YouTube 5 ай бұрын

I'd really love to see a Director's Cut though. Yes, she won a lot of fights and managed to make a great film. But she also said she didn't cut much because Matel cut so much for her. There was a lot she couldn't do. As much as I loved the film, I'd love to see the version she couldn't make.

@Sam_on_YouTube 5 ай бұрын

@@leif1075 Oh no, she definitely did NOT have full creative control. Mattel would never allow that with such an important brand. She was able to convince them to let her be realistic with criticisms of the brand because doing so helps redeem it in the public eye, leading to higher brand value and more sales. And that absolutely happened, with Barbie sales skyrocketing after the film. But they didn't let her do whatever she wanted. No idea what they made her cut. I imagine she is probably not allowed to say.

@fionam7768 5 ай бұрын

That might be funny, but for the fact she clearly feels really bad about dropping the NRB award, which takes away all the funny and leaves just plain mean. Also, someone who venerates film like she does is going to know (a) it's a gag and (b) at her expense, immediately, so not just mean but mean at the outset of one of the biggest honours of her impressive life, so triple mean, and u r out of here...😠

Awwww, Greta...

That's just part of being human, and I *_LOVE_* that you owned up to it. ❤ 💞

@kingace6186 5 ай бұрын

"Demoralize" isn't the right word. It's more like "humanize". We tend to idolize people with phenomenal talent or beauty. It's important to remember that they are just humans at the end of the day.
