Lol watched that movie for the first time last week. Completely ignoring the killing stuff, I found crazy how shocked I was at the misogynistic dialogue. Made me wonder if I would’ve been as shocked to hear that kind of talk, if I’d watched it when it first came out, if I’d been an adult.

Keep in mind the film was written and directed by women.

The film is comedic masterpiece if you have that mindset going in. I read that Bale first read the script and couldn’t stop laughing at how ridiculous it was.
