Rae Klein (American, 1995) - Holding and Beholding (2021)
I need to bring God Willing here too I'm sorry it's one of my favourite movies I cannot shut up this is a romantic comedy do not believe anyone but me. It's a horrible, horrible movie and I love it so much you have no idea
Kinda spoiling some very funny scenes in the beginning but like. The protagonist is this House type of obnoxious doctor. Terrible marriage, weird kids, a son who drops a "I'm leaving medschool" bomb at the dinner table. The man's devastated, until he sees the kis sneak out with some guy and goes "oh my son is gay that's why he's acting so weird and isn't focusing on his studies"
He prepares the whole family to be accepting for the big coming out but instead his son goes "I met this cool preacher, I will now become a preacher too"
Italian dad meltdown
The doc goes to see the preacher preach and thinks okay maybe fleabag was onto something
So he works out a whole identity fraud involving mastermind plan to dig up dirt on the funny-kind-hot-lovable-did-he-mention-hot priest, who eventually turns out to be an ex-felon
And I promise you they just straight up fall in love don't believe the script believe me
They restore an abandoned countryside chapel together you just do not understand oh my god
(It isn't exactly, like, christian propaganda movie too. The doc doesn't really end up changing his personal beliefs, it's a bit different)
So yeah please watch my favourite horribly funny romantic comedy that isn't really a romantic comedy
do u see sanji as some brand of genderqueer or more transfem? i love both sm but im curious about ur view specifically
Kind of both honestly. The headcanons I draw usually aren't put together in the same timeline, mostly it's just things I'd love to explore. As his character in general, genderqueer/gender-fluid Sanji is my favourite because the idea of them growing into their femininity instead of internalising it makes me feel a lot. I see him as someone pretty comfortable with presenting masculine most of the time, but (I ranted a lot about this on twitter lol) intentionally or not, identity struggle is a big part of his character and I really wish it wasn't written off as just a running gag. Thriller Bark was sort of a break off for Sanji's development and, in my head, if Oda continued working on their inner world instead of just kind of shallowing Sanji out, some sort of gender flexibility would be a beautiful conclusion for them. So, that's my "canon" rendition of Sanji
Canon and Oda's writing is the reason I'm kind of reluctant to push my thoughts on Sanji being a trans woman to a bigger public because I feel like it correlates with a lot of harmful stereotypes about trans women, which makes me personally and other trans folks uncomfortable. With how the original source treats Sanji, I really don't want the wrong audience to turn something so joyful into something vile. She's very dear to me, I think she would've been an amazing character with an amazing story that I'm absolutely loving to explore rn, but I'm keeping her for myself and all of you hehe
Bringing the insanity on here too
