i know, i know, i don't normally talk about the marvelous mrs. maisel on here but i need to say something about the 'were you ever a blonde?' scene in the last episode, because it was so just frustratingly beautiful. susie's out there absolutely baring her heart to midge, in a way that she never has before, and she's sort of mad at herself about it (which is honestly relatable, i too have been pissed that i had the audacity to fall for a girl.) she's accepted that this is it, this is her love life, she is forever doomed, stuck falling for rich, impossible girls that she will never truly have a chance with. but there is a sweetness to the hell she has chosen, something that makes their love worth any heartache susie goes through. midge is the love of her life, and a sweet hell with her is infinitely better than a empty heaven with anyone else.
and then there's midge, sitting across from her in her perfectly monochromatic outfit, pretending to drink coffee, and it is so glaringly obvious that they're soulmates. the way she listens to susie and compliments her from a place of genuine admiration is so perfect, so lovely, that anyone who sees them together can tell that they love each other. two remarkably different puzzle pieces that somehow fit perfectly. soulmates, in the purest definition of the word. not romantic, not platonic, but filled with the love of a lifetime.
Perfectly said. It truly is one of the best love stories out there. That line cements susie's feeling for midge, that she never act upon, bcos midge is just too "hetero" or joel is truly the love of her life. Should theres no joel, susie-midge might work. But also if there's no joel, midge might not meet susie. Like abe says, theres no "could have", things just happen
it does not matter if you have a genuine desire to do good (kendall) or a deep capacity for love (roman) or have comparatively progressive politics and are a victim of the misogynistic environment your father created (shiv). because if your sense of self is so intrinsically tied to oppressive capitalist structures, what good are your best impulses, your love, your decency? waystar is them and they are waystar what does any kindness they possess actually matter if they are only capable of acting upon it within the framework of the fascistic, patriarchal corporation that they have no desire to escape?
11 eps of Queenmaker ™ are all it takes for me to spend days digging all the materials about Kim Hee ae all the way back to 1983-her debut year
Special mentions:
lee young ae (the resemblance!!)
cate blanchett (three sons vs two sons)
lee seung gi (got teased by hee ae not to worry about her driving skills because she got her driving license before he was born lol)
secret affair jtbc (best love story™, please watch)
