Ok first, loved what you wrote. I really enjoyed the film and may see it again. There’s something about rich white mess I can’t seem to get enough of.

i loved reading this and you did a good job of pretending you liked the film when you interviewed her!!!

you call emerald ‘seemingly privileged’, but for british people it runs much more deeply than that. she is from enormous privilege and wealth, and her making a film like this in a house that she borrowed from a family friend after forging a career through personal connections leaves a very sour taste in my mouth. if you’re gonna be a nepo baby, you need to at least be good at your job, and she really isn’t
