seeing all the 14-17 y/o queer kids who don’t know what v for vendetta is.... u mean the blockbuster film written by two trans women about a masked vigilante who decides to singlehandedly take down a fascist alternate version of england set in the distant year of 2020... and his driving force was getting justice for a lesbian who he never met but whose diary he found, who was separated from her wife before being killed by said fascist gov.... and it stars natalie portman.... okay
the movie is great, with amazing acting:
and the original graphic novel is phenomenal:
I highly recommend them both
and they've never been more relevant
“People shouldn’t be afraid of their government. Governments should be afraid of their people.”
By no means is the story perfect. V is a bit of a dick really, but Natalie Portman’s performance is amazing and I really love both the movie and the graphic novel.
