Minority Mindset

During his March 19th interview with Jimmy Kimmel, Robert Pattinson’s tendency to not be truthful came up again. Pattinson reacted with visible anxiety, exclaiming, “I saw that! What are you doing?” This nervousness could mean either he’s annoyed that he’s still known as a liar – though he often stretches the truth – or that he didn’t want the joke to end. When Kimmel shared what Zendaya said about first meeting him, Pattinson repeated “used to be,” hinting he still enjoys being deceptive. He even scolded himself, asking, “Why would you ever admit this about yourself? It’s such a stupid thing to say.”

The film largely centers on Charlie and his struggles, particularly his own flaws. However, Emma’s story is handled differently – more subtly – as she confronts her past and figures out who she is. Your interpretation of the movie, and how powerfully the ending of The Drama affects you, will depend on which character’s journey you connect with more.

This week sees the release of The Drama, a darkly funny and awkward romantic comedy that feels a bit cold and detached (is this becoming a trademark of A24 films?). Director and writer Kristoffer Borgli, along with producer Ari Aster, have clearly done their job with the marketing – my mother, who is in her sixties, even asked me about it before it came out! She’d already heard about the film’s central plot point, which is revealed fairly early on. The promotion has built up a lot of anticipation, leaving audiences to speculate and debate what will happen. However, the premise, which sounds shocking when described, isn’t quite as impactful when you’re actually watching the movie.

You can find popular crime thrillers like The Place Beyond The Pines with Ryan Gosling and L.A. Confidential starring Russell Crowe on this streaming service. Recently, Mercy, featuring Chris Pratt, became a big hit after not doing well in theaters, quickly climbing to the top of the charts.
