actual spinster | 📗 let's talk : poor things book vs. film 📽️ @actual-spinster | Uploaded March 2024 | Updated October 2024, 13 minutes ago.
i didnt talk v much about the child-ness of the main character & i did that bc i didnt rly want to talk about such an awful subject [to me lol] but that is part of the discussion about both the book & film, im not trying to erase that !
& one thing i also wanted to say about the film that i didnt like was that all the older women are seen as sex-less/ not fucking in some way ??which i think was fucked up, maybe it was a point on how like youth sees older ppl but i just think it was an excuse to be weird about aging women being undesirable [false]

@verilybitchie 's great video on the handmaiden & the male gaze etc : youtu.be/3LcV2HmZUfY?si=qfBF8_ISsxy2wfB5
