Human life is scary. It has a lot of good things in it, and it can turn out differently, but it's scary. You don't know a lot of things beforehand: you don't know yourself; you don't know it when you're wrong; you don't know the price of your actions. You realize something post factum about your guilt. You ask: why didn't I think of that at that time? Well, at that time you were incapable of thinking. You had neither the brains nor the guts for it. A puppy can't get what a grown-up animal is able to see.
Das menschliche Leben ist schrecklich. Es enthält viele gute Sachen in sich und es kann auch anders kommen, aber es ist beängstigend. Vieles weiß man im Voraus nicht: man kennt sich selbst nicht; man weiß nicht, dass man falsch liegt; man kennt den Preis seiner Taten nicht. Sie erkennen im Nachhinein etwas über Ihre frühere Schuld. Sie fragen: Warum bin ich damals nicht darauf gekommen? Sie konnten aber damals nicht denken. Sie hatten weder den Verstand noch die Gefühle dafür. Ein Welpe kann nicht verstehen, was ein erwachsenes Tier versteht.
Kira Muratova (1934-2018), a giant of eastern European cinema

the reason why Barbie (2023) will work as a movie and as a feminist piece is because Greta Gerwig actually also knows how to write complex, funny and interesting male characters. her Laurie in Little Women was kind and fun and authentic in a way that made the audience understand what the girls see in him; the guy from Lady Bird (yes, Timothée Chalamet again) was a really cool twist on the douchebag archetype. like there's no way Barbie will be about how all the Kens suck (and from the new trailer i believe it's also going to focus on Barbie' self-actualization which, god I'm so excited for Greta to make me cry in a Barbie movie!)
