Okay for those of yall who are confused, here's the film explained: The film is a metaphorical experience for God and Mother Nature/Earth. Jennifer Lawrence is Mother Nature. Watch the film closely and you'll see the parallels, the first people are Adam and Eve, the murderers are Cain and Abel, etc. The baby Mother Nature has represents Jesus. And so on and so forth. Its about how humanity is so bad we'll just destroy Mother Nature and each other. God takes out the heart, the seed for Mother Nature and makes a new one, hoping each time to create a world that will not be destroyed by humanity.

[@bp-u-will-always-be-famous]

Wow

[@downtownscene]

I'd like to point out how God is portrayed in this movie tho. He always treats Mother Nature bad, he ignores her in the movie and says and does bad stuff while she still loves him unconditionally, does everything for him, cleans the house and *never* leaves it. But in the end, he NEEDS her to reset the time, he needs her heart because HER love for him is the key to restart. And no matter what, it always ends up the same way (the house burning) because in the end, God needs his worshippers and he likes the idea of being adored (like how he's super excited about the reader who visits them, and how he trusted his fans to literally HOLD his newborn) more than he values Mother Nature. It's a really smart take on Christianity by Darren Aronofsky. He either appreciates religion so much or absolutely despises it lol

[@Treyman-yi7ei]

[@Pumpkin0_0]

Agreed. And not wanting an uncomfortable movie to make you uncomfortable sounds a bit strange to me, especially while having the knowing of what it's about in general. Wanting the movie itself to be changed in order to stop the feeling of discomfort is even stranger to me, as if everything should never give anyone any discomfort and as if discomfort is something that should be banned from being felt altogether for some reason. It's as if many people have been unable to process discomfort and therefore want others to never trigger a negative feeling within them, even in entertainment. It's just so odd, especially when I hear someone say it out loud.

I agree with you about the scene of them beating her up and also in general trying to convey the message of nature being destroyed by aasaulting women especially when its directed by a man is really not it? like violence towards women, domestic violence specifically, is already a real issue it doesnt need to be turned into a metaphor

[@KikiMk06]

I get it, but I don´t agree. I mean, I agree in the part that domestic violence is terrible, the violence towards women is a real thing and we should put an end to it, but this part of the movie was not about that, it was not about hitting a woman, if the character was portrayed by a man, they would beat him , the moment doesnt have to do with gender. Also lets remember that movies want to tell and show a story, there were a lot of brutal scences in this movie, and the point is to see them, to make a statement. Its not real, they didnt hit her IRL, its effects, CGI and makeup.

[@Antwannnn]

yall are sensitive as hell lmaoo

[@laurencaban6371]

I disagree. The whole end of the movie was supposed to be awful. They literally snapped a baby's neck and ate him, just as brutal of an act to witness. It's not about assaulting women it's about how we treat the world. It is a harsh metaphor but it is powerful and I don't think the scene was done just for the sake of it or shock value. Also how God is supposed to be loving and caring, but has selfish desires of wanting/ needing to be worshipped. The movie is rooted in mostly the catholic religion so of course mother nature would be a woman and God is a man.

Now, women are commonly used as the victims bc they're seen more as innocent damsels (hence why so many women lead in horror movies) to the audience and the higher ups, because a man being in that same situation is seen as weak or soft when in reality he's scared for his life just like the women was lol Correct me if I'm wrong, but men get physically beaten in movies far more than women ever have or ever will.

The way I interpreted the movie was how god (the poet, he’s a poet bc I figured his creation of the Bible) gave Mary baby Jesus who then was murdered by the people and god and Jesus said they needed to be forgiven but how could a mother forgive the people who killed her child but I think it’s a commentary on all interpretations of religion

[@claudiassilverguitar]

Literally my reaction when I first saw this movie. I was PISSED the rest of the night and then my husband was trying to explain it to me and which pissed me off more

[@americxno]

I watched a movie recap of this and they explained it as well, the concept is really interesting. Knowing the meaning behind the story really hurts :( I think they showed the beating up to really show how humans have hurt Mother Earth in real life. I don’t think it was necessary, but it’s so disturbing that it really puts it into perspective. No wonder Gaea got the titans to chop up Uranus and tried to take over the world with Tartarus and her giants in Heroes of Olympus.

When you said that bit about health care workers not being saints, I had flashbacks to my fiction challenge where they gave me three items: Bear Rug, Thriller, Maternity Ward. So I made the dude a total douche who looks at women as objects, and got haunted down by a victim of his. The judges were all like: "Sorry, no points. We just don't find it believable such a shitty person would work in a maternity ward." Totes skipping the part where he subbed in for a nurse he wanted in the pants of.

[@anafj]

YES EXACTLY. This movie feels like a nightmare that I usually have, in this nightmares I'm always overwhelmed about something, and I'm always disoriented, like I don't know what to do all the time, and ppl are constantly mad at me, shaming me but usually the scenario is my previous schools. I'm always dreaming about teachers treating me like a child, being rlly pissed at me while I never fully understand what the fuck is going on. When I watched this movie I had the same feeling that I have when I wake up from this nightmares, pure confusion and terror

Put her through it?? You realise she read the script beforehand right? She knew what the story was and what scenes she'd have to act out, she wasn't forced to film anything she didn't already sign up for. He didn't put her through anything, she chose to do the movie.

[@unclewiley1986]

@@rk1x92 Yes, however actors have spoken again and again about how despite consenting to scripts and knowing it's a script stuff like this still effects them mentally. For example Cynthia Erivo mentioned that playing a character that was getting called slurs and being put down began to affect her and she found that eventually she couldn't even bring herself to sing songs from her role bc it brought her back into that headspace. Even the cast of tv shows have spoken about having to take breaks during filming bc the more cruel scenes were affecting them.

[@rk1x92]

@@unclewiley1986 I mean sure, but at the end of the day it's a job. There are a lot of things that make me feel like crap where I work - people, expectations, pressure, stress, long weeks/hours, not getting breaks, etc. It isn't nice to deal with that stuff and it does affect my mental health, but I know I have the choice to leave if it gets that bad. The people that take these roles know what they're getting into and have the choice to leave if it gets too much, they aren't held against their will.

[@kellysmith4978]

I watched this movie in the theatres, and knew nothing going in. The last 30 min was such an overwhelming experience and had a very claustrophobic feeling because of the constant close ups. It was one of the few movies that I thought about for a long time after. Thanks for including your honest WTF reaction.

[@LisaFevral]

tbh, knowing the meaning of this movie, I wanna say that Aronofsky's take on this cycle is very juvenile and boring, even though he tried to approach it from an art film angle. It's very easy to see what he's going for, especially when you know the "names" of the characters (like "Him" and disciples) and I think that he should've at least done something more interesting than assign an arbitrary metaphor to each character in the movie and then recreate a religious belief in a graphic, disturbing manner. No hate to this movie, I just think it's a lot more boring conceptually than what it was trying to go for.

[@LisaFevral]

Jennifer's performance is really good, and I like the idea of using this type of soundtrack.

[@alextudway]

100% agree it didn’t really feel like he did anything with the metaphor he created

[@LisaFevral]

@@alextudway yeah it's just a confused horror retelling of the religious cycle of life story

[@laur.143]

even though i understand your point, i think you undercut the creativity that goes behind “assigning an arbitrary metaphor”. As a writer i think it’s definitely not easy to come up with a way to retell a very well known story without making it instantly obvious, and i think that this movie accomplishes this with flying colors, proved by trin’s reaction itself. I suppose we are all allowed to have our own subjectivities, however this movie is a (much needed) critical portrayal of our -humanity’s- relationship with our planet, religion, politics, and i guess it’s also very cool that you can analyze it from different paradigms (spiritual, political, artistic, literary, among many others.)

[@LisaFevral]

@@laur.143 maybe it’s not that cliche to approach it through this metaphor of a man as a creator “god” and woman as Mother Earth “mother” in other fields, but in visual art I’m truly fed up with it. It’s basically the premise of every male artists’ body of work(not every, but an overwhelming amount), so maybe that’s why I can’t find much artistic merit in it. No hate to the film or the creator, I just find it a quite banal approach to this old as time spiritual/metaphysical cycle.

[@dess234]

[@imissimeem]

I know you didn't get all the metaphors or messages of the movie, but you're reaction to the movie, taking it fairly literally, is a fantastic representation of what most people are going to be going through when first watching it. Even your description of how similar it is to your nightmares perfectly encapsulates the FEEL of watching the movie. Getting the movie is secondary, and for most people is going to take a little thought afterwards (even if a lot is obvious in retrospect), but you nailed the experience of watching it blind.

The ONLY thing I got out of seeing this for the first time was anxiety. I saw it in theaters so the cinematic experience for the last 30 min was over stimulating to say the least. I could not stop talking about it and trying to unpack everything to understand the straight trauma of it all.
