I didn't really care for Lady Bird when I saw it but this video is making me re-think my perspective. It is becoming more common to see complex and flawed women characters on-screen but in most cases, I am drawn to feel shame, pity, or frustration as a result. At best, I will feel empathy. To be faced with those flaws and have them be associated with love is very refreshing.
Loved this. I hadn't wanted to see this film, and despite your own change of heart, I still don't lol. But I feel like I have a better understanding of it, and I really liked the highlighted scene you chose between Ladybird and the nun. The exchange about attention = love and your analysis was great. However, all the films you added at the end including several I've never seen before are going on my watch list STAT!
I love this "in retrospect" series and the idea of revisiting your own opinions of certain films! Really insightful!
Yay, thank you!

Well done! Much to think about. Love does equal and is embodied in the amount of attention given to a person, place or thing.
What an insightful new take on the film! Magnifique!
Merci!
Love this! Going to show it to my daughter who is 14 after we watch Lady Bird!
