[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]But a lot of the movie is actually quite layered and thoughtful. For example, Allan is coded as queer. He doesn’t fit in with the Barbies; he doesn’t fit in with the Kens. But as a white man, he benefits from the patriarchy and is complicit in upholding it. His initial rebellion is just to flee, but he finally decides to act as an ally. Underneath that very funny spade fight scene is a nuanced look at one aspect of patriarchy. [/quote] Overt propaganda is not good art though. You’re making my point for me. Gerwig’s other movies are much more nuanced, politically complex (not “all cis men bad,” “men control 100 percent of all corporate boards,” etc), and just not as bland overall.[/quote] Barbie is a complex satire of dumb feminism. Most Barbies don't get it yet, it's genius 😀[/quote]
