I’m not going to watch it because I don’t want to watch an ad for a cabbage drill, or whatever the fuck that was, and put more money into Google’s filthy coffers. I was just saying that there’s at least a reasonable explanation for the outline.
Haunting of Hill House has some incredible depictions of some of the outcomes of angst and depression. The scene right after the car scare, where Theo just jumps out of the car and has a breakdown where she’s trying to describe how she feels hits hard.
Also, the movie Christine (not the one about the car) was so spot on with its utterly brutal depiction of depression and anxiety that I’m literally afraid to watch it ever again. It’s an unbelievably good performance from the talented Rebecca Hall.
So those are some great optics. Tons of fresh ammo for the “but the libruls are the real pedophiles!” crowd.
Edit: There does seem to be some strategy in it but it’s still going to hurt.
