As an Introvert, I often forget how to feel myself in a world made by 80% of extroverts. Not fitting in becomes normal, downplaying myself the only way I feel I'm accepted, isolation the only escape from the constant effort. I watched this movie in disbelief of how many chords it was able to touch inside me. Like being seen, again.
When a movie is able to "see" a part of humanity which is normally invisible, who cares about the sociological privileges it portrays, critics? It was not what it was about. And if you think she was "dislikable", well you have missed the point, completely.
I feel some hope again, tonight. Some real hope. The look in her eyes when she was proposing herself for the project. That's what's inside us, and we forget. And the end song with credits, it was so perfect, I did cry. I'm an INFJ, as Cate Blanchett is, I feel honoured to be represented by a visionary actress like her. Thank you for this movie, it was a gift.
