[@teresaluz975]

The cult is not responsible for Dani's family dying. The movie showed their deaths because the tragedy made Dani vulnerable to the cult's influence, they brainwashed her, used her pain to allure her. Pelle was gaslighting her as much as the boyfriend. She smiled at the end because her mind is fractured, that is the happiness of the insane, it's a beautiful shot but it's so incredibly sad. Loved your reactions.

[@DeathToTheDictators]

" She smiled at the end because her mind is fractured" - i don't thinks so....note that the cult all said 'welcome' to everyone when they arrived, but 'welcome home' to Dani. The smile was because she'd found a new family (after tragically losing her first one).

[@thoso1973]

Her smile at the end is genuine; the film is essentially Dani's ascension arc. She has cast away her old trauma and embraced her new family in Sweden. It's very twisted.

[@teresaluz975]

Everyone that thinks the ending is good for Dani has been brainwashed by the cult while watching the movie. They won... Even the director has addressed this.

[@AdamtheGrey02]

@@teresaluz975 What makes you think that her family's death weren't intentional considering the tragedy made Dani vulnerable to the cult's influence. That's why people do think they were murdered. Also, I don't think people are saying it's "good for Dani" rather than this is how she viewed it. But sure, she slowly went insane which opened the door to her being heavily influenced by this cult because of the trauma of her real family and just the constant emotional neglect by her boyfriend. Now she feels she "belongs" so to speak.

[@Natsymir]

I'm Swedish, and I love this film. Some of it is inspired by "Hårgalåten", a song that you can find on KZbin, that's about a legend from the village Hårga in Hälsingland province, where a mysterious musician took all the teenagers to a dance, but he was actually the devil, and in his music a spell was interwoven, that made the teens unable to stop dancing, until only their skeletons were left. The old people jumping from the cliff is inspired by a concept called "Ättestupa" from viking times, where elders would commit suicide by jumping from a cliff to save resources for the community. I'm doubtful whether it ever actually happened though, it might just be a legend. However there is historical evidence from other cultures, that similar things did occasionally happen. However, the film was shoot in Hungary, and very little of the costumes, customs and houses have any real resemblance to traditional Swedish culture. Nor does the landscape look very much like Hälsingland. This bugs me a bit with the film, as it kinda ruins the believability for me. At least the language that the villagers speak is proper Swedish, and we do indeed have particularly potent psychedelic mushrooms in Sweden (called "toppslättsskivling"), that's two things at least that they got right.

[@monsterlair]

Du sa allt jag ville säga. ^^

[@hornet1065]

Yeah, it's a shame that they didn't actually make this movie in Sweden. I think it's because it's more expensive to make movies here due to taxes and stuff. But I don't think anyone who isn't from Sweden or Scandinavia notice the difference. Yeah, the psychedelic mushrooms called "Toppisar" for short are very potent. In America they are are called "Library Caps" and the scientific name is "Psilocybe semilanceata" if anyone is interested in learning more about them. I can highly recommend them 🍄🥳

The director explained that he drew from multiple spiritual systems & ideologies to come up with the plot. Not everything has to be 100% rooted in absolute truth to develop an interesting & original story. Worry less about the authenticity and think more about how this piece of art made you feel. If you want truth watch a documentary 🙂

[@my_randomology]

The thing with the villagers breathing with her when she has a breakdown is supposed to show them "empathizing" with her to contrast with her boyfriend gaslighting her, but it's a fake empathy. It's superficial. The whole movie is about toxic relationships and how true connections are difficult and manipulation has a toll on the mind.

[@andrewreynolds8100]

24:15 My personal interpretation was that the commune parroted/copied/repeated Dani's sobs as a means of letting her know or trying to convince her that they want to be her new family. It's their way of saying "We're here and we feel this pain too" much like they shouted and cried when the old man didn't jump off the cliff at the right angle.

[@shivamsud]

It will be more clear if u contrast it with the scene where her family died....her boyfriend barely reacted while she cried her eyes out.....they joined her in her sorrow and actually empathized with her

[@christopherschreiber5805]

I think part of the reason this movie's so terrifying is BECAUSE it's so beautiful and brightly lit. The dark is the single most common phobia in the world so, on some level, people who scare easily say"If Il watch with the lights on I might not see everything" since most horror movies are so dark. With this film, you KNOW you're going to see whatever they show you, crystal clear, no matter what. There's no "hiding" from it, which only heightens the sense of anxiety.

[@crowhurd]

I agree with this take 1226%!

[@shivamsud]

Yup it cashes in on that feeling of "something is slightly off"....u are there the entire time with a knot in ur stomach thinking whats going on

[@kennypangman4636]

Connie's death scream can be faintly heard by 3 characters. Josh hears it from the scared temple at the 1 hour 26 minute 24 second of the film, the next shot is Dani taking her baking out of the oven and hears it, then the next shot is Mark wandering around outside and reacts. I think it's implied that there was just 1 scream and the film showed us 3 different reactions. My favorite reaction moment is ALWAYS when the scene with Dani and Pelle all relaxed and calm, changes to the old folks with their smashed-in faces being rolled out onto the barbeque. Always hilarious reactions. The film did that on purpose!! XD Also, when Josh is in the sacred temple to take pics of their sacred runic text, notices someone behind and turns, the camera pans around and you can see someone standing behind a hidden corner, that was Pelle, he was the one who knocked him out. And the one with the messed up face was the guy who wanted to - and eventually did - kill Mark. He was wearing Mark's face. :)

[@Masky5150]

The “older” body you mentioned in the wheelbarrow was Connie (she was tied up in chains with a heavy boulder and thrown into a river in a ritual, hence her soaking corpse. It was Simon in the chicken coup as you first mentioned. There is more detail in the Director’s Cut (a much better version) but that’s a much longer movie and I don’t think you’ll be revisiting it any time soon.

[@The_Greg_5000]

I don't know who suggested this movie for you but he was an evil genius.

[@Lannisen]

There is actually a lot of authenticity in this film, which is what makes me love it as a Swede. Ättestupa is from the viking age. If someone doesn't die from battle, old people were given the chance to still have an honourable death that would allow them into Valhalla by jumping off a cliff. The blood eagle is also viking age, a torture technique where they opened the ribcage along the spine and pulled the lungs out while the person was still alive. The clothes ate clearly inspired by our folk costumes as is the music. Dancing around a maypole is 100% legit, and the dance till you fall comes from a folk song called Hårgalåten, wherein the devil dresses up as a fiddler and makes the young people dance till they die. The song even gave name to this community. There's a lot more, like the art in Dani's room at the start (the bear and young girl, by a very famous classic Swedish artist), to the runes and pictures.

[@brucenatelee]

26:28 HOLY SHIT Y'ALL GET IT!!! When this came out, there were stories of people feeling relieved for Dani after she won and sacrificed Christian, and I'm like "Y'all know he's tricked into cheating on her, right?"

[@Hey_Jamie]

After she “won”…? Sorry, won what? The point isn’t that he was tricked. The point is that she’s brainwashed and that’s NOT a happy ending

[@shivamsud]

No the fact is that he was a shitty boyfriend as a whole...the cheating is the most forgivable part about him.....the point of the movie is that Dani clung onto him for support that he didn't give....but once she found that support in the cult she didn't need him anymore so she could finally see how shitty he was

[@captainshadowfox]

Cheating wasn’t the only thing she sacrificed him for

[@melodie-allynbenezra8956]

At 26:08 - "No wonder the community is so small..." The thing to remember is that they do this "nine sacrifices, four outsiders, four from the community, and one picked by the May Queen" once every 90 years. The May Queen gets chosen every year. The elders get sacrificed when they hit 72 years of age, at Midsommar. But the whole sacrifice that we have yet to see is the once in 90 years thing.

In response to the question "how does somebody write this?" This movie actually borrows ideas from a number of other films. The obvious influence is 1970s film The Wicker Man, but there are others, like a more recent film called Jug Face. If you watch both of those movies, you'll see the elements that were lifted from them.

[@melodie-allynbenezra8956]

At 33:14 - Who brought up Sweden in the first place? Pelle did. I think the guys connected to Pelle in college, and he invited them to Sweden for their festival - the once in a lifetime festival that happens once every 90 years. Pelle convinced Dani by showing her pictures of last year's May Queen. This particular festival happens once in a lifetime, but the Midsommar thing happens every year. The whole May Queen thing appealed to Dani.

I forgot that Dani was the one who said to sacrifice Christian to the fire, but it's still fucked up that they manipulated him into doing something against his control and be punished for it. I see nothing wrong with Christian wanting to break up, but I think he supposedly considered it before she lost her family, so now, it's like he's somewhere between breaking up making him the bad guy, or staying with her when he don't want to.

[@mparantha]

When I first saw this movie, I didn't consider that pre-destination was a factor. Throughout the film, each person sacrificed was only done so after violating some community rule. I thought it was really f*cked up that Josh was brought to be sacrificed regardless of whether or not he violated any rules because he was black. This was alluded to in the car ride where Pelle described why the cult was all white - the cult had very specific rules regarding genetic purity so Josh wouldn't even be considered as a suitable mate. After watching the film several times, it does appear that the outsiders brought to the community were pre-destined to be brought there and sacrificed (and for Dani to become May Queen). This is evident from scenes at the beginning of the film where we can see all of the events that will eventually play out depicted in quilts, paintings, etc. giving us the impression that the gods that the cult worship were in fact real and chose these characters for their ultimate fates, with Christian's and the random cult members' being the only ones left to chance or choice. However, with Christian's fate, this is heavily manipulated by the cult because no one in the cult reveals to Dani that Christian was being date raped and that he did not cheat on her.

The subtle and disturbing visual hallucinations in this film really play upon our subconscious as we take in the atmosphere.

I was psychotically laughing at your reactions😂😂

[@llamasarus1]

Midsommar's director released a new movie called Beau is Afraid, and I can't wait until content creators start reacting to it!

Technically, they DID warn the Americans about the Attestupa sequence. The one guy knew about it because he was researching Viking rituals, but I'm pretty sure that he didn't think that they (the two old people) were actually going to jump.

So, if Mary doesn't do well with gore, I think Doom and Doom Eternal are probably gonna be off the table for playthroughs lol

[@phillipseaton9389]

You will be seeing Florence Pugh in the MCU in Black Widow movie playing Yelena Bolovna. Talk about difference in roles huh

[@jeanettesmith765]

She is a wonderful actress!

[@44r0n-9]

[@lagnok]

They are a cult with blatant designs on her from the start. they didnt need to warn her lmao

[@dcmslife3772]

I am in Little Women starring Florence Pugh -- the girl who plays Dani.

[@ueno1]

Watch for Florence in the new Black Widow movie!

[@jeanettesmith765]

Florence was nominated for an Oscar for Little Women. I hope she gets one some day.

[@shainewhite2781]

The kind of movie to watch in order to figure out how to get out of a toxic relationship.

[@stevesmith5883]

One of my favourite films, I love the aesthetics, cineamatography and music. I remember going to a halloween rave in 2019 in a floral dress, flower crown and shoes I'd drawn runes on haha.
