I have some things to say about The Kissing Booth.

I watched this movie because it popped up on my recommendations on Netflix. It’s a pretty solid, cheesy high school film, which is nothing I’m opposed to. 

However, the love interest’s anger issue is really scary and I wish films would stop making it a character trait. Throughout the film, the character of Noah is shown to be a hot-head. He gets into multiple fights and is controlling when it comes to Elle’s love life. The film makes it out to be that Elle seems to have a knack for calming him down. 

But then, Elle gets hurt, and Noah’s own brother (who is also Elle’s best friend) accuses him of hitting her. One of the closest people to this guy thinks that he is so incapable of controlling his anger that he would hurt a girl that is practically family and that he claims to love. That’s scary. 

Movies and books targeted toward young women continue to make their male love interests these dark, aggressive men. It’s so unhealthy for young women to covet and fantasize about these types of characters. The After series, 50 Shades of Grey, and even Twilight have male characters who hide manipulative, abusive behavior under a facade of being misunderstood and fear of losing the girl. It’s not okay.

Aggression is not sexy.

“...which would have to be very quiet or very close to a lot of bees...”

I’m reading through old papers looking for writing samples for my grad school applications. This line sounds mad out of context and has me cackling.

Ratatouille (2007) 

[wellquitefrankly]

When I was in high school, I took culinary arts classes and one day, my teacher put on Ratatouille and told us to write down 50 culinary words from the film. This took all of 5 minutes. And then we spent the other 85 just watching Ratatouille.

It was a really good day.

America is built on racism, slavery and genocide and literally continues to exploit this in every sphere of existence.
