‘i don’t have fucking instagram, i'm an adult, man, what are you talking about?’
i finally decided to watch this film after all the praise it received internationally and during awards season and i’m glad i did! this film explores themes of identity, privilege and value. anora is subject to the system of capitalism and is tossed aside by her rich playboy when he no longer needs her or is told off by his parents. i enjoyed the commentary on…
