just saw asteroid city last night, pls explain the proposed significance of the kiss!!

answering this publicly hope thats ok! cant do a readmore im on mobile *****asteroid city spoilers below beware*****

i dont remember anyones names so this is gonna sound partly unhinged. okay so the edward norton playwright and jason schwartzman actor (not character, in the black and white parts) are lovers right. tbh i thought this was kind of a gag and forgot about it. but later we find out that the playwright died 6 months into the production. i didnt make the connection that THAT’s why the actor-jason has to suddenly leave the stage and freaks out backstage about how he’s not sure he’s Doing it right. hes not talking about acting!! because he himself is literally grieving his lover while he’s playing a character who’s grieving his wife written by his lover so obviously it’s too much!!! actor-jason is trying to find meaning in his death through his writing but there isnt any meaning in death [gerris drinkwater voice] which is what the play is trying to say anyway. he doesnt think he’s performing grief right even in his own life!!! (and tbh it’s the 50s so he wouldnt be able to perform grief publicly anyway!!!!) the play starts with a car accident… anyone would search for some hidden meaning there, some sign…. so when he talks to margot robbie outside it’s not really about finding the CHARACTER’s motivations it’s about the actor himself being able to process the playwright’s death! and adrien brody director was probably also dealing with that too (him and norton seemed to be good buddies) so the whole “sleeping backstage” thing gets a bit sadder maybe? maybe everyone else got this in the theatre and im just stupid lol but crazy making stuff to me!!! the whole story is about sublimated gay grief that cannot be expressed?!?!

the tweet that caught me onto this was here which posits that the playwright’s death was a suicide but i think that’s pretty stupid and unnecessary because the whole thing about the play asteroid city is that death is random and meaningless. im pretty sure that’s what the alien represents— a shocking and absurd event that isnt outright evil or menacing, not something anyone can predict or make sense of, it’s just a thing that happens to you out of nowhere, it doesnt mean anything. he’s a little black figure, he’s death! giving and taking! aagh

#This movie altered my mind so bad it made me bring back my dead blog #I love the way everyone reacts to traumatic scenarios in this movie too it’s just *chefs kiss* #asteroid city #wes anderson

I finally got around to reading The Glass Menagerie, and I knew that the final line of it was in The Boys in the Band, but I never fully understood the connotations of Michael saying, “blow out your candles, Laura.”

Now I’m just trying to fully decipher that. And oh boy. 💀

#I feel like now there’s a connection to be had between Michael and Tom #which would make sense because I could easily see that #Tom was *not* going to movie theaters that’s way too obvious #so this would make Harold both Laura and Amanda? #and Michael is frustrated because he is being smothered and ultimately held back #I may be onto something here #the boys in the band #mart crowley #tbitb #tbitb michael

have to say once more.. bigender people who are both men and women get no respect or consideration cause yall make us just women or just men depending on which one will invalidate our arguments or make us sound like oppressors, and none of yall can figure out how to fit us into your gender politics bc acknowledging us as real men AND real women would require understanding that men and women are not fully different, separate and opposite groups. bigender m+w means you cant group everyone into “men and non-men” and act like these are coherent categories. bigender m+w means you will need to let bigender wlw talk about wlw experiences without painting them as aggressive male intruders, and bigender mlm talk about mlm experiences without painting them as fetishizing straight women. bigender m+w means you cant treat us as if were exclusively men the moment we talk about anything you dont like regarding gender so you can paint us as purely actors of oppression who have never suffered misogyny despite also being women. bigender m+w means you have to rethink how you think gender works and what you believe about nonbinary people aligning themselves with a binary gender meaning theyre just “man lite or woman lite” when some of us are aligned with both binary genders. etc..
