first gen daughter with mommy issues watches this movie with her younger sister while also on her period; hours of crying ensues
seriously amazing though. i don’t really have words to describe it all, but the way such sincere emotion is drawn from absurdity is what hit me the hardest. that tug between laughing or crying and then just sitting there enveloped by both, absolutely stunned, is what i felt for the majority of the film.
the scene where bella gets her wound stitched up by carlisle is rife with more sexual tension and chemistry than she has with jacob and edward combined there i FUCKING SAID IT.
i’m not jewish so if any jewish people would like to voice their opinions on this film in the comments please do !!! but....this story is historically inaccurate, emotionally manipulative, and INCREDIBLY exploitative (my qualms are mainly with the book, which the non-jewish author wrote in TWO AND A HALF DAYS, with presumably little to no research....). there were no children in auschwitz. they were gassed immediately because they weren’t old enough to work.....if you couldn’t be put to use…
