But you liked me yesterday… Oh, did I, yeah? I thought you did.
“It’s also a deeply melancholy picture about the way dissatisfaction, the anxiety of recognizing the emptiness of a supposedly comfortable life, can creep up on you, with Pádraic and his carefree ways the casualty of another man staving off those feelings.”
- A. A. Dowd’s review of THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN (2022) dir. Martin McDonagh
I'm reading the script for Banshees and I'm dying. Why didn't this line where Pádraic thinks people laugh at him because of his miniature animals make it into the movie???
How's the despair?

- Do you think God gives a damn about miniature donkeys? - I fear he doesn’t. And I fear that’s where it’s all gone wrong.

I mean, I’m a happy lad. Or I was. Til me best friend started acting the gilly-gooly.

It’s not about Inisherin. It’s about one boring man leaving another man alone, that’s all.

Director Darren Aronofsky and his star, Brendan Fraser, aim for empathy but come up short.
"It’s tough stuff that unfolds pretty much in one room. Which doesn’t give Aronofsky much space for his usual visual panache. So, nearly all of that overeager energy is channeled through The Whale’s depiction of Charlie’s body, a prosthetic creation that Fraser wears like a cross on his shoulder. This is a mighty act of becoming, the film seems to insist—and also one of empathy. But what’s expressed instead is a kind of leering horror, a portrait of a man gone to catastrophic ruin so that we, in the audience, may tap into our nobler, higher minds and see the worthy human being beneath the frightful exterior.
That doesn’t feel anything like empathy. I trust that that intention was there, on both Aronofsky and Fraser’s parts, but their execution is turgid and ghastly. Nearly every time Charlie goes to take a bite of food, Aronofsky’s cues up Rob Simonsen’s unrelentingly bombastic score, plaintive and sinister strings indicating that something very, very bad—and scary—is happening. What might have been a somber and carefully considered study of a lonely man grappling with his past becomes a posturing labor.
....
The Whale is meant to be a poignant consideration of guilt, sexuality, religion, remorse. We really only know that, though, because the movie shouts it at us. Charlie, Ellie, and Mary are more avatars of ideas than true characters, which seems to suit Aronofsky’s vision of the story just fine. A coldness seeps into the picture from behind the camera, a calculating gaze that turns The Whale into a static (if extraordinarily loud) diorama of pain. Here’s Charlie, keening and pleading behind a pane of glass for all of us to sigh and pout and gawk at, before moving on to the next fleeting curiosity."
i hate you body suits i hate you latex attachments i hate you cosmetically making an actor look more fat than they are instead of just hiring a fatter actor
