I watched it at the cinema. :) Awesome movie. :)👍
Blickfeld competently reworks the source and exploits body horror in bright showstoppers, forcing the impressionable to turn away, and others applaud the courage of the team.
This is a funny, funny and scary movie about what it takes to be a princess.
The impressive debut of Emily Blichfeldt, rethinking the well-known story.
Blichfeldt, preferring to burn to the ground any morality, will boldly mutilate his heroine, sew and chop her flesh, because beauty is pain. So suffer more.
“Despicable Sister” may resemble the recent “Substance” – the same female look of the wounded heroine, the same genre of body horror, the same story of Cinderella (suffice it to recall Sue’s dress at the New Year’s party, where at midnight everything interesting happened). The parallels are only partially true. Coralie Farge explored the theme of the collapse of the personality of a middle-aged woman due to imposed social norms, Emily Blichfeldt in her feature-length debut addresses the origins. Yes, we live in a society where the form is elevated to the absolute, and external data can provide a way to a brighter future. The corporations that taught women how to remove hair from unwanted places and use cosmetics to look like the best version of themselves are making billions on the quest to win this endless race for beauty and youth. Yes, this society was created by men. But are they the only ones to blame? And if in “Substance” the answer lay in the already displaced value system of the main character, for whom there was no other life than life on the screen, then in “Despicable Sister” the director suggests focusing on how the surrounding reality gradually, imperceptibly, changes the worldview.
Throughout the picture, Blichfeldt skillfully uses this reversible approach and displays a bizarre mixture of snide and empathy, denouncing blind worship of beauty ideals.
The film, like a scalpel, reveals our innermost anxieties and fears, without delay and pity, crashing under the skin. The finale of the picture will be creepy and uncompromising, but there is room for hope and love, because the story still remains a fairy tale, albeit remade beyond recognition.
Unlike most Cinderella film adaptations (from the 1949 Disney cartoon to its 2015 game remake), Despicable Sister captures its relevance: plastic surgery is experiencing a new round of popularity thanks to a generation of 20-year-olds, for whom it is also viral content for social networks. Those who are not affected by this trend, the movie Emily Blichfeldt will surprise unexpectedly provocative reading of the fairy tale, the plot of which everyone knows by heart.
I highly recommend watching. :
