When Batman looked at the boy, he was experiencing empathy. Empathy isn't confined to offering kindness to another as is suggested for a moment here... it's awareness of another's feelings.... in that moment, Batman struggled with his own feelings knowing what the child is going through. That is empathy. He may not have utilised that feeling to offer kindness or support, but he felt it and shared that moment of recognition. Ultimately hope and despair are on the same spectrum. We may experience both... there is no absolute and no certainty.... and both are possible. Much like happiness and sadness. Life isn't about obtaining one and avoiding the other, if we have any chance of finding a bit of peace in between. Life should be about nurturing hope and connecting to the silence and peace between as best we can.

i love lisa

I just wanted to be like Lisa Simpson and follow the instructions on how to be like her To dress like her and doing her voice impression 1.her white pearl necklace around her neck 2.her red dress but since I won’t buy one I’ll make one myself 3.her white bloomers aka her underwear and panties to cover up her body 4.yellow legging pants for her legs and body 5.her red shoes for her feet 6.her hands yellow gloves 7.yellow body paint for my face to cover it up 8.a yellow jacket for 9.a pair of sunglasses that has her eyes and her face 10.and practicing her voice impression to speak like a girl and become a vegetarian like her

I always loved the use of Ken and Barbie Dolls as a way of patraying the fake plastic world she lived in

Hated this film when it was released as an 18 year old, but recently decided to give it another crack as a 38 year old with my daughters. Absolutely brilliant film that had us laughing so much. Simple with wholesome themes of friendship and growing up with a strangely nostalgic soundtrack.

I was genuinely scared of this movie. Like what you explained, I felt like I was just as helpless as the kids, I felt like a child, I didn’t know what was about to happen and I couldn’t do anything about it. When I first watched it I tried watching it with my dad but he walked out 5 minutes into the movie saying “it’s boring”. I understand, but that really frustrated me with how quickly he walked out.

6:56 Made up mythical creatures like "ligers"

i was a huge batman fan during the release of the movie, but i didnt watch it, during the wave of The Batman, Something in the way was used a lot in the batman edit videos and i saw them a lot, and i took a liking to something in the way, and then a year later, i was immersed in nirvana, knowing their discography and so on, then i decided to watch the batman because it finally was released on netflix, it was such an expensive dinner, watching and hearing something that pleases me really well.

Rome wasnt a suicide attempt.. Kurt Cobain was murdered. #JusticeforKurt #burntheliars

I just want to go back in time and enjoy this for the first time again

Amazing video! I was hooked and thanks for the new album I'm about to obbsess OVER!! <3

why is this somewhat scary but also comforting

Many semi-autistic characters here. The fact that they aren't really trying to be anything other than who they are is endearing. They are all innocents, even Rico. It's an implied criticism of phony coolness, and that kind of "growing up" that actually means becoming a big, convincing phony.

Good evening.

Amazing video, bro, what mic do u use?

How can anyone hate Lisa. I always loved her and i still love her

When you realize the skinamarink demon is made of the same evil than the hotel in Shinning

Great video! This movie came out the year I got married. Twenty years later my husband and I still quote it and have seen it I don't know how many times. I can never make quesadillas without yelling "dang QuesaDILLas" . 😂My parents, on the other hand, saw it once and couldn't understand why we love it so much. Maybe it's a generation thing. My mom said "I don't understand why he always looks like he's falling asleep standing up!" 😂

This movie is genius,that is all!!

I think it hits even harder when you realize that kurt cobain was very likely mrdered .

Someone wrote an incredible review on Letterboxd and all I can think about is that--personally, in my opinion-- it gives off not just the eeriness of being a child and being afraid of the dark - but also within the first five minutes, the sense of dread that gave off the feeling of childhood abuse. It was so familiar, and dragged me back to those memories, and I haven't watched the movie for longer than five minutes since I first tried...

Wonderful, measured essay! Thank you! I’m a huge fan of Karen and have always been impressed by Todd Haynes’ work here, as eerie as it comes off. I do think he meant this as a thoughtful homage as well as a commentary on the many struggles Karen suffered.

Amazing video about the Caped Crusader and Kurt Cobain. Whenever I hear 'Something in the Way', I somehow imagine an animated music video in the style of the 90's Batman cartoon that Kurt Cobain plays his song in the Batcave and the video ends with Bruce Wayne and Alfred watching Kurt's performance. Then, decades later, Bruce, with Terry and Ace from Batman Beyond, goes to Kurt Cobain's memorial park in Aberdeen,WA, as Warner Bros's and DC's tribute to the tragic, but beloved iconic singer of Nirvana. Who knows if WB and DC did that.

I would love to see Johnny do this with dragon ball super

As a huge Batman AND Nirvana fan, this movie was tailor made for me.

As a fan of horror for years, especially thoughtful, slow burn horror, I can't believe how bored I was by this film. The trailer was fantastic, the look and feel of it is excellent, but I just didn't enjoy it at all. It's right up my alley, but man I was bored the whole time. That being said, this video was fascinating, and your take on all this made me rethink a lot of this film. You may not see this comment a full year after this video was made, but I hope that you do, because you managed to pull off something incredible - you made something excellent out of something I found terrible. Great job, seriously great work

One thing I love about this movie is that even though its in a small rural idaho town its still relatable to people around the world a lot like how The Breakfast Club is still relatable to kids today. Its essentially timeless

Ha ha I was just taking a drink at the end when ypu all of a sudden showed Napoleon taking a drink lol

I've seen some videos of his but never knew that there is a whole pop opera, exactly what I'm interested in. Thanks, I'll check it out 💙

Batman was created 20 years before Kurt was born? How does this work?

Something in the way is about him Kurt

Just a random thought I had seeing some of the cutting room floor footage from Unplugged; they could've released an entire double album with the songs that were cut from the television performance. I think I speak for all Nirvana fans when I ask....why didn't they do that!? They could've released the Unplugged album as is,and then released the full concert in a "double live" format a few years later,even. Have you heard what was cut!? It's really good! Especially their acoustic version of Lounge Act. What the hell,DGC!?

Imagine being a regular human, creating something that resonated with some people, dying, and then having your legacy forever portrayed thru the prism of whatever the fans wanted you to be. Look at how many people refer to him by his first name, as if they knew him, and attributing his words to their own lives. It's like his legacy is cemented in the very thing he didn't seem to like in the first place. The bitter irony.

Such a good movie and such a good band

Such a good movie and such a good band

as a schizophrenic, this film feels like… the essence of it in a film. it’s the feeling of ‘did i see something?’ ‘what did i just hear?’ ‘was that something?’ ‘is that real or not?’ and while it certainly hasn’t helped my hallucinations (keep seeing fisher price phones), it is a very good film!! very evocative!!

Wonderful video!

this is really good if you keep making videos like this ur channel will blow up

Amazing video, best analisis of the movie. When I was a kid, I suffer a terrible night with high fever. My mom stay in the room to take care of me, suddenly, in the middle of the night, I hear a voice asking me to play with my hot wheels, or else my mom will die. It was a nonsense fever alucination but in that moment I stand up, crying and start playing with my toys in the dark. My mom just ask me to sleep again and she didnt really think about why I was doing that. During the covid days I had fever alucinations again. Even if that was a more recent experience I barely remember that night. But that terrible night as a kid keeps in my mind and this movie transport me directly to that.

UNDERRATED

Todd Haynes is a cinematic genius but has never been nominated for a Best Director Oscar. Who do I have to f*** to get him in? I'm willing to take one for the team.

I cant help but think how kurt felt when we all and I mean everyone of us looked to him and his music and we just couldn't let go, he was us, he was our voice, an embodiment. I can see why it was to much

was born in 78 so the 90s was my shit. this movie was awsome to me, the whole scene and sound, gave me a crow vibe and reminded me of the comfort in being sad

🦇

Do Kurt a favor. Don't buy into the lies that his Murderer and ex wife sold to the media to make herself look innocent, that they ate up with little to no evidence to justify those stories, and that they then sold to their impressionable young audience, who ate it up and harmed themselves in light of how much they loved and idolized Kurt. It does nobody any good, particularly not his memory, which deserves justice and an honest conversation about the facts as they stood before Courtney's lies were injected into the conversation to cover up her role in his, yeah - murder. He was not suicidal at the time of his death, he was over using to deal with the fact that he felt trapped by fame and by her, but he'd already made the decisions to go in the direction he wanted to musically and to divorce her, and was on his way to recovery in the days before his death, don't honor her poisoning the well with misinformation, honor him - the pre "suicide" version of him, that joked about suicide only because he was over conscious of the way people perceived him, but not because he ever had any real thoughts of harming himself. Rome was also a murder attempt, this is why his first words to his wife upon opening his eyes after Rome were "fuck you".

Great essay! Just wanted to add when you mentioned how Nirvana's empathy was overshadowed by hopelessness when fans heard about his death. I was only 5 when Kurt passed but I felt the exact thing when Chester of Linkin Park died. I was already drowning and his death felt like- oh so no matter how many times I fight bavk, depression can still defeat me? It was a dark time and I don't think this really makes any sense to this video but I wanted to share my thought.

Brilliant. Thank you.
