watched this last night and it was pretty good

quote:

As much as this film works on different levels. It's also an inversion of the Dracula myth. The old, seasoned person with the young, naive virginal representation, but this time the ancient one is Female. It flips the gender roles but not in a superficial/overt way.


and i came to post this review

***SPOILERS***














quote:

For all her protestations, her transformation process is interrupted by love. She is mortal now. Because she is in love with Evan. For the first time in two millennia. So she was either consciously lying before about not being in love, which doesn’t make any sense. Or she was unconsciously lying, denying to herself that she was in love with Evan. Either is uncomfortably close to suggesting that women cannot be trusted to tell the truth about their emotions, or about what they want. Her mouth said no, but her body said yes.

Disgusting.

I watched this movie because of this thread a few weeks back. I thought it was really good. Jesus that person who wrote that is insecure and has a stick up the arse. It's about people and the mysterious nature of love. There's an interplay of maybe the man is just naive and his love may be superficial and the woman is jaded after millennia of life and doesn't even really want love. But the power of love overcomes her desire to live forever and proves more important. It is something that a person can not consciously overcome.

You have to be looking for a reason to be offended to pull the bull shite in the review out of it. You have to be inherently sexist and only looking at them as a man and woman rather than two people to get that out of it. Jeez.
