The thing about BEEF (2023) is that the sentence "me and the bad bitch I pulled by being literally insane" is that it applies to both main characters. I love it.

just i cant get over Fumi Nakai as a character like holy shit the way she is writen, her husband being renowned artist and architect and her being his muse never having worked a day in her life, every single person says the exact same things to her about her husbands art and waters her down to non human she is the art she is the title she is only valuable by name and impact on culture, she is not recognized anywhere she is lonely and spends her times with her grandaughtr or in cafes loking to talk to anyone who doesnt reduce her to tokenship and mysticism
and fucking Jordan this rich white bitch art collector that has more money than countries, has a whole room of crowns from different cultures, is obsessed with fetishizing asian women and wanting to own them basically. She wants a Fumi Nakai art piece despite them not bring for sale because that is the invaluableness of Fumi and how she is suspended on popularity and tokenship and no financial support, she wants specifically the Tamago. A chair that was molded to Fumis backside by her late husband, the way that it represents her career as an artist she is inside the egg she is the muse she is his art she is the real value here and how this wealthy white woman wants it all and then dies ironically

the moment danny reveals why he was buying those hibachi grills had me screaming, crying, throwing up, banging my head against the wall because it puts the entire journey his character takes throughout the show into a new context, leaving space for the viewer to reconsider everything they have just witnessed and it was so well done, fuck

A24 said “we’re gonna use a road rage story as an entryway into a 10-episode dissection of suburban despair and ultimate futility of the cycle of revenge” and I’m about it
