queenofattolia:ceremonial:Anya Taylor-Joy as Emma Woodhouse in Emma (2020) dir. Autumn de Wilde#80% of this movie is extremely clean people moving through extremely clean pastel-colour interiors#in lives which bear almost no resemblance to a physical reality#they are a chalky sweet dollhouse diorama of formal unreality#and then 20% of this movie is those people CRASHING HEADFIRST into a physical reality so overwhelming#that their bodies cease to function properly#joe wrights’ P&P tries to chug along at a nice even pace of lived-in grubby gentle disorder#de wilde’s emma is an extremely regimented and almost clinically clean pastry box of lives#which makes up for that vacuum in sudden urgent moments of complete physical breakdown#dancing with your crush and forget to repress™ your true feelings for a hot second?#the only solution is to RUN and to TEAR your CLOTHES off in DISTRESS#ready for a pastel pale instagram-ready garden proposal scene?#wait is that….. an emotion….oh good must be time for an IMMEDIATE NOSE BLEED#while we both hyperventilate#anyway I adore this movie and what it does with formal/informal -- source link
