@willmenaker Is there a tldr on Barbie? It's about Barbie and everything is pink but it's by Frances Ha and has a stacked cast and is being promoted as the biggest film of the summer, so it's apparently not, like, a My Little Pony movie. It's supposed to be ironic and subversive? Pls help.

@RodericDay He's the only director where in every single films, I have been lukewarm after the first viewing, and then have grown to love them on subsequent viewings when I catch on to what I understand to be his message about the world the story occurs in.
@RodericDay Kubrick's oevre is a withering indictment of Western Civilization, from Strangelove to Shining to Metal Jacket to Barry Lyndon to Eyes Wide
