Glass onion script team really said "we've hidden the meaning of the film under several layers of plot, but yes. the message is just as obvious as the title indicates. all you really need to see is that powerful billionnaires don't deserve shit and CAN be taken down by force" and it's very direct action of them

(I took the image from @victorianpining episode of TJLC explained because I couldn't find the working source of the quote.)
"I think when the day comes that you have a big detective show where the first half an hour was this man at work and he's a maverick and all the usual things and then we went home and his boyfriend says, 'Are you alright?' it was just a thing, then something genuinely changed."
-Mark Gatiss
I can't stop thinking about this thing Mark Gatiss said and then how Ryan Johnson gave us a little south gay detective Benoit Blanc who sits in his bathtub playing Among Us while his husband Hugh Grant scolds him and cooks. He made it the simplest and most normal thing in the whole movie. He knew what the world needed, and I applaud him for providing us.

Glass onion spoilers
One thing I love about glass onion is that Helen’s nails are red when she’s herself and white as Andi. The first shot of Helen is her sitting in a bathrobe and towel, looking at the box from Miles. The second shot is a close up of her hand holding the address card with RED nails. The first shot of “Andi” is her hand on the door of the cab with WHITE nails.
One of the rules of a fair play mystery is that twins can’t be used unless we have reasonable evidence that they exist. It’s such a small thing but having very prominent shots of her hands with the two different nail colours totally creates a distinction that the woman in the bathrobe and the woman getting out of the car are two different people. Of course it is Helen in both shots, but it sets up the idea of two separate people. Obviously no one would infer twins from different nail polish, but I love that little clue 🥰
Ryan Johnson really did think of everything, huh?
ALSO! In the flashbacks at the glass onion bar, Andi has black nail polish. In the boardroom when she shuts down Miles’ klear idea and every scene thereafter, her nails are white. I saw a post where the colour white is a big symbol of Miles’ demise. All the way down to Andi’s nails when she starts standing up to him, and Helen’s nails as “Andi” taking Miles down

The Last of Sheila, Glass Onion & homosexuality
Tumblr media
Glass Onion had a lot of nods to The Last of Sheila as Ryan Johnson the director said so, The Last of Sheila was wrote by Anthony Perkins and Stephen Sondheim (who also had a cameo in the Glass Onion) who both are gay af
so I had thoughts about this..
In The Last of Sheila the 'homosexual' character was the most intelligent person on the board able to win the games quickly and ended up being the the villain. In the Glass Onion the homosexual character is also the most intelligent person but he is a detective and the hero of the story.
In The Last of Sheila Mr.H's homosexual past is a secret and is mentioned as a possible motive for him to kill someone in order to keep it a secret. In the Glass Onion, Benoit Blanc's homosexuality is not really part of the plot, not something deviant, not something to shock, not something to be anything but part of his personal life which the film doesn't spend a lot of time dueling upon.
Both movies are about money and it's corruption but in The Last of Sheila, Mr.H made a decision to be corrupted and have personal security by becoming a millionaire while Blanc's decision is to fight corrupted people and put himself in danger for the security of others.
It's just interesting that how society's change towards a 'less' hostile environment for gay people, lead to the change of what roles gay characters can have in a mystery story..
from the villain to the hero.
