Barbie 2023
In the moments where you can tell this is Greta either just having fun or laying bare her feelings about womanhood and being human, this really sings. I cried in the first 30 minutes when Barbie meets an old woman and simply says, “you’re beautiful”. I cried laughing at the “can I play the guitar at you” Ken bit.

I admittedly wanted more of karate-era Priscilla and to marinate in certain moments much longer despite the intentional dreamlike fragmentation, but there are unsurprisingly so many subtle & smart ways that Coppola brings us into the loneliness, the control, a predatory relationship with passion but no justice. Cailee Spaeny is out of this world and moves this character through different ages and painful experiences with palpable grace. A beautiful cage is still a cage.
