not the ideal film to watch when you’re about to graduate and enter unemployment for the foreseeable future until a global pandemic ends
I've now seen Frances Ha three times
The first time I was younger than Frances is in the movie (she's 27). I couldn't stand most of the characters and thought the movie was just okay.
The second time I was 27. By then I had lived through (or was currently living through) much of what Frances does in the movie. I understood these characters now, and watching the movie was a mildly devastating emotional experience. I loved it.
This time I'm older than Frances. Watching it feels like a harrowing flashback to when I was 27 that really isn't far off from my life now. I don't think I've seen another movie that captures this experience of being in your late 20s in New York during this decade and trying to get your shit figured out. I still love it.
"so, what do you do?"
"it's kind of hard to explain."
"because ... what you do is complicated?"
"because I don't really do it."
LET ME LIVE I DIDN'T NEED TO BE CALLED OUT LIKE THIS AT ONE AM
it's that thing when you're with someone, and you love them and they know it, and they love you and you know it... but it's a party... and you're both talking to other people, and you're laughing and shining... and you look across the room and catch each other's eyes... but - but not because you're possessive, or it's precisely sexual... but because... that is your person in this life. and it's funny and sad, but only because this life will end, and it's this secret world that exists right there in public, unnoticed, that no one else knows about. it's sort of like how they say that other dimensions exist all around us, but we don't have the ability to perceive them. that's - that's what I want out of a relationship. or just life, i guess
elio and oliver did that
Really liked this. Slowly realizing Greta Gerwig has my exact sense of humor and pulls it off insanely well. Just felt like a movie that was right up my alley in terms of a tone.
lucy dacus was right when she tweeted “friendship 🤝 is sacred 🙏 the highest ⬆️ form of love 💞”
This is the kind of movie that causes strongly polarized reactions based on each viewer's capacity to tolerate/recognize/empathize with those on-screen. Some people just can't handle watching 20-/30-something white people undergo minor crises within a basically privileged framework, which is understandable. (That said, I'm not sure why someone with that mindset would ever go watch ANY NOAH BAUMBACH MOVIE and ask afterwards — as some guy did — " if it had any sort of larger social context… besides only being about middle- to upper-class white people?” And then, when he got a deservedly flip response from Baumbach, he said "fuck you." How's that work? Sure, there's ongoing concern, only slowly being alleviated, about expanding the racial/gender/economic/etc. voices making films,…
