I think we need to apply this to older movies as well:

The homophobic gag in that rom com,

the racist side character in that coming of age story,

don’t just brush it of as a product of the time, acknowledge that it was bad then and remains a terrible aspect of the film today

[ID: a response to the tweet ‘What’s your hottest literature take?’ (By @cxcope). The reply is from liv / @boredromantic and says:

“ young women’s criticism of the (violent) misogyny in “classic” lit should be taken 100% seriously. if a teen girl says the rapey overtones of 1984 ruin the whole book for her, she’s not less intellectual. this goes double for girls refusing to read classics that are misogynistic”]

-Why a lobster? -Because lobster live for over one-hundred years, are blueblooded, like aristocrats, and stay fertile all their life. I also like the sea very much: I waterskied and swim quite well since I was a teenager. -I must congratulate you. The first thing most people think is a dog, which is why the world is full of dogs. Very few people choose an unusual animal, which is why they are in danger.

The Lobster (2015) - Directed by Yorgos Lanthimos. With Colin Farrell, Rachel Weisz, Léa Seydoux, Ben Whishaw, John C. Reilly, Jessica Barden and Olivia Colman.
