After the Hunt

this movie made me realize that i will never be one of those hoity toity ppl who sit and have conversations about the implications of morality in society. like sorry that im funny and like to enjoy my life. while i absolutely do have the ability to keep up with those conversations. they’re not difficult to follow. it’s not my intelligence i swear. the need to sound intelligent in spaces like that is so ANNOYINGGGGGG. like stfu and talk about smth else. like you’re smocking cigarettes, where’s the weed. like yall have cunt ass music playing in the background and you was to talk about restorative justice vs vengeance like BORRRRRIIIINGG.

“so what you’re just fine???” “yes i’m feeling cunt” TOMATOESSSSSS IM THROWING THEM AT THE SCREEN CAUSE THESE PPL ARE LITERALLY 50

that lady is CONSTANTLY cross faded. i fucking knew it was an ulcer. i was destined to be a physician but i realized that i love life and want to serve. the fuck do i look like being a doctor.

okay so revealing her past relationship with her dads best friend is so interesting. the idea was that she continuously came on to him and she’s saying that she manipulated him into being with her essentially. but she was 15 and her husband is like “girl you were deadass 15 as a grown man he should’ve said NOOOOO no matter how hard you tried.” she wrote an article abt him exposing him which she swears are lies. and he ends up killing himself. i honestly feel like her need for control and the embarrassment of being manipulated despite her intelligence embarrasses her. THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH INTELLIGENCE BTW. and she’d rather sound like the abuser rather than the abused. she kept a picture of him in an envelope even in her 50s. and when telling her husband about it she says “i love him” he said “i love you”. which i think that she truly believes what she was saying but the fact that he even allowed them to be in a position for her to try to pursue him already puts him at fault sorry. this movie is the personification of when a boomer says smth really emotionally jarring that they went through and think it’s not a big deal and didn’t effect them.

if a child is coming on to you as an adult you fucking know to avoid them, tell their parent, or never be alone with them. i think this is the moment that her husband realized that she’s too far gone to even comprehend the idea that the victims that she is so skeptical of, is literally her.

i love her husband he’s so cunt i don’t gaf

there are noooooo direct quotes btw. i don’t think i really understood the movie but i liked it. also fuck y’all like the idea of andrew’s character not raping her was less likely that him raping her. u didn’t believe him for a second

La verdad no sé q me pareció, me tuvo sin entender nada la mayor parte de la peli, pensando que iba para un lado para el otro, supongo q logró su cometido pero se me hizo muy larga y aburrida por partes, mucho diálogo que parecía no llegar a nada, al final es como que sí pero no

super uncomfortable

I would have been generous and given it a 😐 but my GOD, that atrocious score and sound mixing. Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, if I ever get my hands on y’all, istg…

Really sad with how messy this was ugh

Yeah I think it was a little too long and I can’t exactly put my finger on the message behind the film, but I still really had a good time.

The cinematography is so great. A lot of really wonderful camera shots that really show how much Guadagnino loves film. It seems divisive, but I also really loved the score. I think it perfectly drove home the emotion in each scene.

Performances were solid but none I think were truly groundbreaking. Though none also lacked. Overall I think it was an intriguing and moody watch, even if it feels like it loses itself a little by the end. But damn if I’m not a sucker for a Guadagnino film.
