"this artist was thrust into the limelight at an age at which they could not have yet developed into a fully realized person, let alone political creature, and therefore their decision-making skills have been forever crippled and mental maturity forever stunted" and "this artist is still old enough to know better and have basic empathy and simple reasoning" are ideas that can and should coexist.

i just watched the craziest movie !!! It's by french director Jacques Audiard, it's called Emilia Perez and it stars Zoe Saldaña, Selena Gomez (who I did not even recognize and who was genuinely really good im shook) and trans actress Karla Sofía Gascón and it's about, get this, a mexican cartel boss who is a closeted trans woman who hires lawyer Zoe Saldaña to fake her death and get a new identity as a woman !!!! And then she creates an NGO to help find the bodies of the victims of cartel crimes to repent for her past life AND... the craziest part yet... IT'S A FUCKING MUSICAL !!! A highly realistic and down to earth one... but still a musical !!!
There's literally a song at the beginning where Zoe Saldaña is surrounded by plastic surgeons who sing about gender affirming surgery and the chorus is "Rhinoplasty Vaginoplasty Mammoplasty [fourth surgery I can't remember] ! Female to male ! Male to female ! 🎵" akslajd sometimes I do love this world we live in 😭
Btw the movie is entirely in spanish
