I needed closure on that. Whew, she has next months rent covered.

You’ve summed up my feelings on her perfectly.

Oh, good, she found work...

Ugh, isn’t she supposed to be taking a break from acting? was this movie already filmed?

It’s definitely a lace-front. You can see the lace on the right side of her forehead.

I didn’t think I could find Jennifer Lawrence more insufferable, but then I have been subjected to her ridiculous self importance/indulgence on this mother! Press tour that I feel like is legit never ending!

It looks like a wig...

I hate this movie for several of the reasons you list. I also thought that framing it like a mockumentary keeps all of the characters at a remove and makes it all as voyeuristic as it was when it played out in the ‘90s. And then, during so many of the action (i.e. not faux-talking head interviews), the characters…

“(Worth noting that John Waters—the king of camp—regularly depicts low-income white Americans in fun and silly ways yet somehow always manages to be kind.)“

Oh god, and fucking hate the smug filmmaker trope of “did you enjoy the gratuitous and cheerfully-scored violence we spent thousands of hours and millions of dollars to show you? Well, surprise, YOURE THE REAL MONSTER FOR WATCHING IT !”

Thank you for pointing out Kerrigan comes from a blue collar family as well. That gets lost in some telling of this story and it shouldn’t.

I know! I really, really wanted this to be awesome. Harding-Kerrigan was the seminal sports scandal of my childhood. I remember how shocked I was by the idea that a woman could be unapologetically violent, ambitious, angry at authority figures, and unrepentantly aggressive. In the tragically small, extremely rarified…

Uma Thurman is about as good an actor as wet paint. Literally watch her in anything that’s not a Tarantino film and it shows her for how awful she is. Honestly, go watch Dangerous Liaisons and tell me that she hangs with Glenn Close and Malkovich? Not even close. Tarantino’s material elevates her to decent, but make…

Uma Thurman should have continued to be a huge star after Kill Bill. I don’t think she’s the most versatile actor in the world but she’s sure as hell a better action star than Angelina Jolie (and she aged better, which I only mention because it *does* matter in Hollywood) or many others. But, instead, she had over a…

No, apparently no.

What is this nonsense. DJ Khaled’s 1 year old baby does not want a bracelet because he is a 1 year old baby. His conspicuous consumption, fame hungry daddy who likes to use him as a prop may want to get him one though.

Every now and then I am reminded of Mother! and am horrified anew. I understand it better now that I know that it’s a biblical allegory/gothic horror but I can’t imagine anyone actually enjoying it.

Once JL started dating DA, I lost all respect for JL...it was waning anyway but the nail in the coffin so to speak. DA is just horrible.

I mean, Mother was basically The Male Artist telling the Woman she was utterly replaceable and expendable and would be used up and discarded as soon as he had wrung out all artistic inspiration he could from her. So.

This is my suprise face! /sarcasm
