#FirstTimeWatching #Carol #MovieCommentary - บันเทิง
hey guys!! i filmed this back in december before the holiday hectic-ness really picked up, lol, but I figured I’d still post the vid now bc there’s no point in holding on to it until next year just to post it around christmastime 😅 but I promise there’s a more modern/timely glass onion commentary coming as soon as I finish editing it!! I hope everyone’s having a great start to 2023 🖤 thanks for watching!!
Attempt #6 for you to see show Willow on Disney plus.
The entire show is out so I can say you will definitely enjoy it
Also I am still sad that I couldn’t see Glass Onion in theaters like I was able to see Knifes Out in theaters
The outfit kind of reminds me of Geena Davis from the movie long kiss goodnight. At least the first half of the movie.

You look like Susan from the Narnia movies!
Carol is literally such a stunning movie fr
truly a work of art 😭
@@fictionaldarling The most beautiful work of art and so underrated
@@BeeBlossomEdits it made $40 mil worldwide so far, that's fantastic for a "low budget" independent film. and it's developing a cult following and appeals across segments.
I love Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara’s performances. Nicely done.
they're so incredibly talented!!

Rooney & Cate's chemistry is intense! ♥ Carol! Such a great movie!
That ad break "this can not possibly be the correct target audience"
Me, a gay man: Yes it can lol
This movie is just heartwarming . Cate and Rooney (Whom i can't wait to see her playing Audrey Hepburn) in this movie is just amazing . And don't get me started on that gorgeous visual .
Thank you for doing this! Carol is my all time favorite movie! And lately I'm reading the book it's based on of, "the price of salt"
I love your edits by the way :)
@@kbaylor123 aww thankuu!
I just ordered it yesterday, can't wait to read it
@@hailey007 enjoy! And I literally just watched “Loving Highsmith” yesterday, the documentary of the author of this book
@@rainbowinbeigeboots6190 ohh I'll have to watch that after I read the book
This movie was filmed in downtown Cincinnati, where I worked at the time. A few of my co-workers went on their lunch break a few blocks away to see them film a scene with Cate. The department store they used was the old Shillitos dept store remodeled for the movie. I remember seeing the old cars when I drove to work.
Just found your channel today.
And yes, Carol is truly iconic and nuance. It’s a really, really good story.
What’s an added interesting thing was how the book was written in the 50s, by a well known Thriller Author (whose books were used by Hitchcock).
It’s like her coming out novel and a really bold move (same with how the two characters did in her novel).
Cate and Sarah hahaha my favorite chaotic duo
This movie is magical. Absolutely loved your commentary.
thanks for watching!! 🥺 & totally agree, magical is the perfect word for this film :')
I've never been able to watch Carol, it cuts to close to home. I was born in Australia in 1957, The State I live in, New South Wales didn't decriminalise homosexuality until 1984 when I was 27! The first State to do so was South Australia in 1975 and the last was Tasmania in in 1997!
Mind you, this only applies to men - Lesbianism was never illegal in Britain or any of its colonies (that includes Australia). However this was not out of tolerance or humanity, you just didn't need criminal law to coerce women, in the patriarchy that is totally unnecessary since women were almost always the "property" of the men in their lives. Husbands, fathers, brothers, uncles etc. who could have you consigned to a mental institution to be drugged, electro-shocked and lobotomised and don't forget we are talking about all women now not just our Sapphic sisters.
For anyone deluded enough to think that is all in the past now - you poor fools, the patriarchy has fought bitterly against all reforms supporting the equality of races, genders and sexualities and I think it is turning the tide - it is now winning again, not just in the dark corners of the world but in the global north as well - Transphobia in the US is a prime example but there are no shortages of others, anti-abortion, voter suppression, gerrymandering, it just goes on and on.
I'm beginning to think I might just live long enough to see a theocratic right-wing fascist government in Washington along with the criminalisation of anything but Cis Straight White Orthodoxy.
Sorry, I loved your video, loved you but I think you touched a nerve lol.
Michaela.
💜🤘🏳⚧⚧♀♀🏳🌈🦘
this is actually my favorite movie ever. if you're looking for another great cate film though, you should watch oceans 8!
Even better are all the cast interviews for Oceans 8 😂
Waterloo was the decisive engagement of the Waterloo campaign and Napoleon's last
I wish I could watch Carol again for the first time
I'd love to have a signature smell, but everytime I pick a perfume they either stop making it or change formulation 😭
Aaaa, so happy you watched this! Such a beautiful, heartbreaking film. Cate and Rooney are just perfect. Were there awards for this? I can't remember. I sure hope so. Haven't watched it since I saw it in theaters, but I think you inspired a rewatch, Jess.
Thanks so much for this video! What a great start to 2023.
Great job as usual. I love the characters and especially the cinematography.🌻💜
So happy to come across a reaction to this film. Absolutely loved the book, and I felt this was a perfect and stunning adaptation. A truly beautiful film.
As ever, I love your reactions, how you totally immerse yourself in the story.
12:48 Bit of trivia, this actor played The Riddler in the tv series GOTHAM.
I want to see your react to the BBC's miniseries of "Fingersmith." Just sayin'
This was so much better than Call me by your Name.
I really love watching people watching Carol for the first time!!! Your reactions are so spot on!! And your insights were great!
your commentary videos are always so refreshing and fun :)
I LOVED your video! Very funny and on point! "more, more"!! i was a baby at this time so so nostalgic for me to revisit the world as it was then.
This is such a beautifully crafted movie! And 4:05 yes, this is where the meme comes from 😂 It's about an old couple overheard at the theater while watching this movie.
Thanks so much for the reaction! I love this movie!
I watched this movie 2 years ago and I absolutely love it.
You mention the look of the film and the key way the filmmakers achieved the look was shooting on 16mm film.
Have wonderful 2023 Jess 🥰❤️
you too!!! 😊
Same. I rewatched it recently. I actually really like it. Great reaction!
Wowwww…. I really love your outfit for this video. This movie looks pretty good. Keep up the great work, Jess
Marvelous video about my all-time favorite film. Thank you.
Love this film can't wait for see your reaction.
Omg! I am so happy that you finally are reacting to this movie! 🌈😍
Amazing performances by Blanchett and Mara! You can see both of them in the 2021 version of "Nightmare Alley", directed by Guillermo del Toro (he just received the Golden Globe for his animated version of Pinocchio). I recommend you react to some of his films.
omg, you look very great, jess!! 🥺🥰
🥺🥺🥺 haha, thank you!!
This movie gave me all the levels of gay panic! I love it!
It's still wild to me this kind of dinamic (4:28), but I think it wasn't uncommon among richer people at the time. I was just reading a book about Classic Hollywood lesbians that mentioned how well Marlene Dietrich, her husband, her (female) lover and her husband's (also female) lover were all friends and lived in harmony, sometimes each couple in a country, sometimes all in the same house, with their daughter and all.
Love your videos so much
such a fantastic movie
I know another series is a tall order, but I really think you'd enjoy "Ted Lasso". The characters are just so much fun, besides Ted himself, you;ll love Beard, Roy Kent, and the friendship between Rebecca and Keeley.
In fact you might recognize some of the main actors from some recent MCU post credit scenes...
It took me a few days to watch this bc I love it so much I get overwhelmed. Nowadays so many people judge this film but it was truly the first time that as a lesbian I felt represented authentically. The director (a gay man) captured the intimacy without fetishising it, and the screenwriter (a lesbian) captured everything else so well.
On the topic of perfume, I accidentally found my signature one but I couldn’t imagine changing it. It’s Blood Orange by Shay and Blue and is the perfect mix of masculine and feminine, fresh and woody.
I too am obsessed
oh my god that outfit is the cutest thing i’ve ever seen
Beautiful film!
Great movie with outstanding performances
Hope you are having an great and awesome day ❤️
ahh thanks!! i hope you are, too!!
Mi película favorita, gracias por reaccionar a ella❤️❤️❤️
20:01 "Everything comes full circle"🥺
P.D: Cate Blanchett mi religión 🛐
Wonderful reaction, thank you! I like that you take advantage of the commercial break time to add your own!
One recommendation for a reaction: just 1 single episode in the series Black Mirror, season 3 episode 4, “San Junipero” You don’t need to watch the rest of the series for individual episodes.
my type of Christmas movie 😌 btw you should check out The old guard too 💅
You should react to the Knives Out movies by Rian Johnson, they are very entertaining films with stunning outfits and star studded casts.
yeah, i'm editing glass onion rn!! should be the next vid up :)
I loved this film. Greatly enjoyed your reaction; no surprise there. Because of your lipstick I am now craving red velvet cake. I hope that comes across as a compliment.
Hi, i always love seeing your vids :) but this is my first comment, Love this film. i was wondering if you have watched or plan on reacting to "Everything, Everywhere All At Once" i know it came out last year but it is already one of my fav movies of all time so i highly recommend. Anyways hope you had an awesome start of the year. :D
I first read the screenplay of the film and loved it. Finally saw it 2 years ago. Though I loved the script, I’m glad it cut a couple things out.
ohh, that's interesting! what did they end up cutting out?
@@fictionaldarling been years since I read it, but one of the things they omitted was Therese in bed with the guy that’s into her and she gives him a 🤚. Pardon the language
@@fictionaldarling to avoid yt issues

I love queer romance movies especially lesbian ones, I have a list I always recommend to anyone interested!
Ammonite, set in 1840’s England;
The Handmaiden, set during the Japanese colonization of South Korea, I think the 1930’s;
Portrait of a Lady on fire 18th century France;
The Favorite, late 1600’s England during Queen Anne’s rule.
I love your outfit Jess 😍❤️
haha, thank you!! 🥺
If you want more Carol you should read The Price of Salt by Patricia Highsmith
Added to my watch list 😁
ahh i hope you like it!! and i hope you had a great holiday season, too :)
@@fictionaldarling I did thank you!! Happy new year ❤️
Oh cool!
welcome to the club
Fantastic movie, Cate Blanchett ❤
1: you look STUNNING!
2: would you pls react to the School for Good and Evil
haha thank you!! i think that's on the list, actually! not sure how soon though 😅
3:22 You ASKED, so this is not spam:
Scent Crafters (scentcrafters⚪️com)
There’s no “petrichor and cinnamon”, but you might come close with this custom scent: 1) Spice or Cinnamon - the main scent, 2) Frankincense and Myrrh - for woody notes, 3) Plum - light and juicy like rain, with a hint of earthy sweetness. I also recommend combining the China Rain scent with light, sweet fruit notes like Cantelope, or something exotic like Sandalwood. Experiment. You can even customize the bottle and name it.
Warning: I mixed Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Apple Blossom as a Yule gift once, and my sister’s dog kept finding the box and ripping it open-I invented dognip!
one of my twitter mutuals went to college with Jack (the guy who yells "therese!" at the dinner lol
this movie is a bit old but can you react to teen beach? it's an amazing musical movie and i'm sure you'll love it! happy late new years!
You should read the book--it changed my DNA
If you could do a movie commentary for M3GAN that would be insane the movie is really good
I'd also recommend Chadwick Boseman in "42", if you haven't seen it.
So what was in the telegram, who sent it and how did they know where to reach Carol?
It's been awhile since i read the shooting script, so i can't remember if they were more explicit in it and it just got cut out - but in the book it was direct that Carol was in touch with Abby during the trip, so Abby often had an idea where they were/were staying. Abby was keeping tabs on Rindy and the court case for Carol.
The telegram was from Abby, when she had found out somehow that Harge had them followed by a detective. She was trying to warn them.
But obviously the front desk deciding to wait on giving the telegram to Carol till the morning after ...had repercussions.
You should review Smallville
Yeah that recording people job is a real thing. That’s what Jessica Jones does in the show Jessica Jones. I only watched one ep and it made me uncomfortable!
Have you saw euphoria
Gorgeous 🤗
I'm too poor to thrift
