I feel like showing how little Armand had to actually do to get Larry to "rest" really highlighted how much Daniel resisted it and how hard he fought and that was what made him fascinating 😭

FORBIDDEN FRUITS (2026) directed by Meredith Alloway

the characterization of cinderella in the ugly stepsister is, dare i say it, my favorite i've ever seen. because elvira and cinderella are both competing for the prince's hand, the film performs a delicate balancing act in depicting patriarchy. elvira seeks male approval at the instruction of her mother, but cinderella seeks social mobility and changing of her material circumstances.

unlike other cinderella adaptations, the ugly stepsister doesn't simply reward cinderella with marriage for being beautiful. instead, it depicts marriage as a social tradeoff. cinderella is pragmatic and cunning, and she has more experience with men than elvira does due to her position and appearance. she has more confidence and decorum than elvira, but she is also never given a reason to doubt herself. she doesn't marry out of love but as a means of escaping her situation. meanwhile elvira doesn't actually need to be married. but after such intensely targeted indoctrination, scrutiny, and bullying from her mother and teachers, this is the only future she can imagine. and ultimately this makes her shallow and cruel, to both cinderella and herself.

this is a truly fascinating and deeply sympathetic take. a lot of people compare the ugly stepsister disfavorably to the substance as body mod horror. however, the ugly stepsister is in an entirely different ballpark with its characterization

Okay, so Forbidden Fruits is obviously very camp, very satirical, quite silly in places, but I genuinely love that this is at its core a story about lonely women. Like, it is so clear that these people are so alone and that’s why they come together so forcefully and with such toxicity. Cherry has lost her entire family. Fig was the weird girl without friends in high school. Apple is so very, very queer and angry, living out of her car. Pumpkin is trying to move through grief. Like, yes, this movie is wild and wacky and a spiritual successor to Jennifer’s Body, American Psycho, The Craft, Mean Girls—but it’s also weirdly one of the most honest depictions of female relationships I’ve seen in a minute. How easy it is to get obsessed with the first people who seem to see you. How easy it is to fall into the gravity of people who will tell you how to be your best self. How those rules will consume your true identity and replace it with conformity. How you can’t really survive that.
