maintaining the order of perfection the compliments are absolutely perfect.

I didn’t, but I saw my sister and her friends do some stuff with those barbies, and I think we all did; they’re just imagination, and a way of expressing your inner desires and things that you’re exploring about yourself and the world; they’re like a very it’s a good tool for children to have; and you guys are so funny, it was also a ton of aggression too, like my sister had a Barbie that was my size, and I don’t know what that’s around my size You know, instead of a small you know that existed, there was a literals your size Barbie, and it was just like, instead of being lonely because she had no friends, she could use it as aggression because everyone else was miniature. Speaking of humans being weird, that’s something we said at the beginning, and by the way, we’re like, I think that’s why we’re so weird. They told the doll-makers, “We made it, but it’s not our fault; it’s a doll’s fault.” The doll-makers then became angry and yelled, “Yeah, yeah, yeah, we’re not going oh here are the things that we should do better in the world.” how about the arched foot scene were

for the shoes so they would come off so that I could get my feet out of them and I was holding on to like a bar but that’s it I wasn’t like a harness or anything like that I just like walked up kind of held on to the bar above camera stepped down wow yeah and you were a dancer right I did ballet when I was a kid so but i i i hate it i i always try and do my own inserts like i don’t like when i watch a movie and i know it’s not my hands i hate that so much i always say the director like please let me do all my own things i don’t i don’t like knowing that i didn’t do it

Greta Gerwig, the director and co-writer of Barbie, linked Barbie and Ken to Adam and Eve. “Barbie was the first,” she said. “Ken was created after Barbie in order to strengthen Barbie’s position in our eyes and in the world.” That type of origin narrative is diametrically opposed to the Genesis creation tale.” The passage drew notice in part because Gerwig has previously explored theological issues in her writing, most notably in Lady Bird, in which Sister Sarah Joan seeks advice from philosopher and mystic Simone Weil. The Genesis parallel, on the other hand, seems like a joke, at least when made to plastic dolls. According to the Bible, God creates Adam from the dust of the earth, then knocks him out, removes his rib, and turns it into Eve, the first woman. They dwell in the Garden of Eden, a wonderful world. While it isn’t technically the tale of Barbie — a lovely and frequently gaspingly funny film, by the way — Gerwig wasn’t joking when she mentioned the creation myth in the Vogue interview. Barbie is a remarkably insightful exploration of one interpretation of the text and its meaning, as well as the significance of Barbies as cultural

objects, the gender battles, and feminism in general. You know, the usual blockbuster fare. The Barbie brand isn’t the kind to be explored in cinema or philosophy. However, in the hands of Gerwig and Baumbach, it is as sneaky and subversive as a movie can be while still being produced by one of its targets (toy manufacturer Mattel, which the movie relentlessly tweaks over discontinued Barbies and Kens) and distributed by another (Warner Bros. Discovery, which gets one expertly barbed zinger). It’s like a candy store for movie buffs, with references to everything from the psychedelic dream ballets of the 1950s and ‘60s to Stanley Kubrick’s 1968 masterpiece 2001: A Space Odyssey. If the movie does well financially, Mattel may attempt to replicate its success with other intellectual properties, but it’s hard to imagine that any of them will be as smart and not simply corporate pandering as Barbie. Barbie is now in theaters near you
