Director Greta Gerwig who is serving as the President of this year's competition jury, addressed the #MeToo movement on the opening day of the Cannes Film Festival to reporters and journalists.
In the happy picture shared by Justin Trudeau on Instagram, he can be seen wearing a neon-pink hoodie. Xavier, on the other hand, wore a pink T-shirt to echo the theme of the Margot Robbie-starrer.
The shot showed Robbie’s perfectly arched feet amidst a pink background. In the scene, Robbie’s character was seen slipping out of her pink, furry heels and standing on the tips of her toes, while her heels remained in the air. Exactly like Mattel’s iconic Barbie dolls.
The Barbie movie is much deeper and nuanced than the pink fluff camp tone of Barbieland may lead one to believe.
With the recently released 'Barbie', filmmaker Greta Gerwig applies her unique brand of empathetic storytelling to the titular plastic doll. After 'Lady Bird' and 'Little Women', Barbie continues Gerwig’s feminist view of what it means to be a woman with agency and impact in the modern world.
A feminist fable, a saturation of colour and humour, patriarchy smasher — for a meta-messaging film, ‘Barbie’ is total bananas and riotous fun.
A battle between ‘atomic’ and ‘iconic’, big bang and pink power, is going to play out in the theatres on the same day this summer. Who will win? Does it even matter?
