Musings on Gold Digger (2019)

** Warning contains major spoilers **

** Also warning: massively long-winded ramble **

Julia Ormond, Ben Barnes and an exploration of a may-december romance in the midst of complicated famillial dynamics and an underlying unease.

Both leads are very good. We see Julia Day (Julia Ormond) reclaim herself as she moves out of the roles to which she has been assigned, or perhaps more accurately, has assigned herself; while Benjamin Greene (Ben Barnes) treads the fine line of someone who is not entirely what he seems to be, and who in pursuing the path he has chosen, is moving both closer to, and further away, from what he needs. We all, or many of us at least, want to be known and loved for who we actually are.

The supporting cast are uniformly excellent, with each episode putting the spotlight on one of Julia's now-adult kids (Patrick, Della and Leo), her ex-husband (Ted), her ex-best-friend (Marsha), and her new lover.

The series poses a range of complex, thorny questions, such as what it means to take a much younger (or much older) lover; the immediate and long-term aftermath of domestic violence; the loss of confidence and trust following betrayal; the ripple effect of those pivotal moments that each of us have in our lives; and the small (and large) lies that we tell ourselves and each other.

Nearly everyone in Julia's life is openly and vocally "concerned" when she introduces the much younger Benjamin into her life, and the series also explores the cost of pursuing your own happiness in the face of others' disapproval.

For the most part, the two sons (Patrick and Leo) are Not Very Nice. While they are not necessarily unjustified in their concerns about Benjamin, and are each grappling with the fallout of their parents' shared history, how they act upon those concerns is rather unpleasant. (And slighly nonsensical. Patrick is a well-heeled lawyer, surely he would have hired a private investigater to do some digging?) Della, her daughter, is the most open of the three to their mother's new relationship. And while for the most part that isn't saying much, Della's growing acceptance and support of Julia's right to be her own person and the strength she demonstrates in doing so, make for a lovely subplot - particularly as it starts to positively impact her own life.

While the series asks a lot of questions, it doesn't necessarily answer them in a way that fully satisfies. We see Benjamin and Julia's attraction in numerous sex scenes, and it is fabulous to move from the early scenes, in which she turns off the light, to later scenes in which she has pushed aside some of her insecurities. But we don't see enough of their intellectual attraction, of the non-physical side of things, and of how they navigate the fact that in terms of cultural milieu, he has far more in common with her children than with her (sort of, that too is complicated). There are some lovely glimpses - the book of walks he gives her as a gift, for example, rather than ubiquitous and offensively-generic flowers. But their growing closeness is mostly given in montages of them walking around holding hands in various locales - we are rarely privvy to the intimate discussions that would show a deepening relationship.

Much goes unquestioned by Julia, which given her intelligence and life experience seems somewhat implausible, although perhaps newly discovered and unexpected love can make fools of us all? Her lack of curiosity about Benjamin's past, which clearly continues to affect him, or his financial situation (mid 30s, professional job, but about to be hounded by bailiffs?) is hand-waved away at one point. This is one of those instances where I cannot tell if it suboptimal writing (maintaining suspense at the cost of characterisation) or very clever writing (Julia tends to avoid conflict; her reluctance to ask questions to which she doesn't necessarily want to know the answer has precedence). Herein lies the dilemma of suspense-based drama: in keeping Benjamin an relatively unknown quality we lose the opportunity to get to know him and Julia as a couple, and that becomes problematic later on.

We experience Julia's growth as she takes responsibility for her own destiny, eventually starting to question what it is that Benjamin isn't telling her, and taking the necessary steps to find out more. And when she finds out more, and it is rather confronting, she still chooses to listen before coming to her own conclusions. But we don't see the same for Benjamin. His journey is more opaque, and because we only get very few snippits of his life before Julia, is largely for the viewer to infer, or only becomes evident after the fact. He wants to run away when things start to close in on him, but he doesn't. Ultimately his hand is forced and he breaks a long-held agreement with his brother to put his own needs first. (There is a small subplot about an engagement that didn't happen; a former girlfriend broke up with him the day he proposed, and one wonders if it was because he also told her the truth about his past.)

There are interesting contrasts between Benjamin and Ted. Both are outwardly well put together, but neither are what they seem. Ted is successful, wealthy and enmeshed in entitled middleclass-ness, while Benjamin is not, despite his facade of the urbane younger man.

But the outward trappings hide the fact that Ted is controlling and violent, while Benjamin - despite what the criminal justice system would say - is neither. And that contrast is backed up by the scene with Ted in the forest on the morning of the wedding, compared with that with Benjamin on the beach (in which Julia asks him to not touch her, and he listens and respects her wishes instantly). Even throughout the argument with his newly re-emerged brother Kieran, which escalates into low-level violence, Benjamin only ever reacts, never instigates.

And it would be entirely remiss of me not to mention Marsha, who has made her own bed, unfortunately with Ted in it. We meet Marsha just as she is beginning to realise the extent of the poor bargain she's made, and it really only gets worse.

I am still not sure whether the series simply had very high expectations of the viewer, or whether the script spread itself too thin and undercut itself. The distrust and deception that flows throughout the series was almost catching, and in the face of it I wanted stronger closure, a deeper resolution of the issues that came to light late in the piece. In the absence of that, Kieran's words after the fight with Benjamin resonate just a little too strongly for me. Are they actually in love with one another, or are they in love with what the other represents to them?

Is Benjamin a gold digger? Not, I think, in the traditional sense of the term. He sees in Julia an embodiment of the life he wants to have, but had always been excluded from. My take is that the attraction and burgeoning love is real, but that it is also inseparable from her aura of wealth, education and intellect, which are an integral part of who she is and how she moves through the world.

He was certainly not honest with her, and that also poses an interesting question about how much of our ourselves, and our actions, we can mask, ignore or conceal before sliding into deception or disaster. Alongside Benjamin editing his past to hide a terrible act (in which he played a supporting role but shouldered much of the consequences), we have a younger Julia peddling the fiction that all was well with her (first) marriage, Ted hiding his violent streak, Patrick having an affair, Leo knowing about Ted and Marsha but not telling his mother. The list goes on.

The lingering disquiet of how much of Benjamin is a performance, and how much is real, never quite leaves. We do see sharper edges to him at times, which are in keeping with what is revealed about his past (you couldn't come out of young offenders unscathed, and you certainly wouldn't get through it without developing some pretty decent survival mechanisms), although Julia herself is not privvy to them. It is in the rawness and desperation of a couple of his reactions that a measure of confirmation is provided that his feelings towards Julia are genuine. There is a two-fold element of unreliable narration with Benjamin, yet it feels not entirely unreasonable to conclude that Benjamin the construct is underpinned by a longstanding and deep-seated need, and has largely become Benjamin the actual. But how recent was this process, and was it a legitimate one? We don't ever really find out, and that matters when it comes to our central conundrum.

But as may have become evident throughout this long-winded ramble, one of my own personal failings is that I like my fictional endings to be happy, and unambiguously so. I want Julia to enjoy her 'after', just as much as I want Benjamin to revel in the safety and belonging she provides. So holding onto a suitable measure of optimism (or perhaps of wishful thinking - our characters may not be alone in their penchant for self-deception), let us now return to their wedding reception and one of my favourite scenes. Watching a truly beguiling Julia invite Benjamin to dance, and an utterly charming Benjamin follow her onto the dance floor, made me smile. A lot. And with that in mind I am going to find myself a glass of champagne, ensure my best smile is firmly in place, and head out onto the dance floor to wish the two of them my very best.

ollie bearman x reader

---

2014

You watched as the young boy stormed away from the kart now embedded in the wall. Ignoring the sheer relief that you felt, you left the stands to meet him in the paddock where you knew he would be. You spotted him and tried to jog to catch up to him.

“Ollie! Ollie! OLLIE!”

“Yes? What do you- oh. Y/N. Hey” he looked sheepish as he started at the ground as you caught up to him.

“You doing okay? That was a big impact.”

“Yeah I’m fine, just annoyed about the crash. Probably wasn’t my opportunity for the overtake and now my dad has to repair the kart and-”

“Shh, it’s okay Ollie. One race isn’t going to ruin all your chances to make it to F1. and even if it does, I always have and always will be here for you.”

“Thank you, y/n.”

2019

“I cannot understand why it always ends like this. Why cannot girls like me for who I am, instead of who I could be. They always want to be with me preparing for my money and wanting to be an f1 wag, but then when they realise that it’s not all glamour, and there’s hard work and I try to be there.”

“Ollie, in the nicest way possible, I’m gonna need you to shut up.”

“What-why? Y/N you’ve always been my bestie ”

“I’m right here. I’m always right in front of you but you never see me! And yet somehow I am ‘your bestie’ and I have to put up with all your ‘oh i don’t understand why these girls do not like me.’ Ollie, fuck it I am in love with you and I am sick of pretending otherwise.”

Before you could say anything else, Ollie quickly pressed his lips to yours.

2021

“Y/N I want the whole world to know about us. I know you think I shouldn’t due to hate and people calling you a gold digger, but I’m sick of just pretending we’re childhood friends. I want to kiss you when I win races and show you off!”

“Fine. Don’t make me regret this. And if I do, we’re going back to being private again, okay?”

“Of course, love!”

2024

“Aww, you and Y/n were so cute!”

“WERE???”

“You are a little painful but otherwise I supposed you two are still cute. But come on, how can this…”

“Become this?” 

"Oi!"

Arthur looked at Ollie’s smile as he gazed at the photos. He smiled back.

“It’s always been her, hasn’t it?”

“Yeah”

[fic-over-cannon]

hi sunnie!!! i wanted to ask what your favorite movies of all time are and why? and also do you have any genres or tropes that you lean toward more than others? i hope you’re having the loveliest day :)

lovely ro, i hope the end of summer is treating you well 💕💕

when it comes to movies, i divide them into movies that i like to watch and movies i like to analyze. when i watch movies for fun, i usually go for movies that feel fun or relatively low stakes. i love to watch melodramas, specifically from the late 1940s-1950s, because they were some of the only movies being targeted a female audience at the time and because of the social and industry censorship these movies had to navigate. i also have a weakness for popcorn action movies, they're like fast food to me. in no particular order, these are a few movies i love:

melodrama:

All That Heaven Allows (1955): influenced so many other filmmakers, it's just such a good movie

Now, Voyager (1942): not your typical happy ending or romance

Babyface (1933): a gold digger succeeds! (but only in the uncensored version)

The Reckless Moment (1949): film noir technically but i'll count it here

Dolores Claiborne (1995): another movie about complicated mother-daughter relationships, the mystery will have you hooked

action

Last Action Hero (1993): knows that it's an action movie satire and takes delight in being one

Bad Times at the El Royale (2018): killer soundtrack - the scene where cynthia erivo sings to avoid getting shot is electric

The Gentlemen (2019): typical guy ritchie film but i'm just emotionally attached to this one

new queer cinema occupies a niche all its own, and i'm afraid if i start talking about my favourites i'll go on forever.

(i really hope you don't think i was ignoring you, i've been thinking about this ask for days wanting to get my answer right >_<)

[new-world-mutation]

I made a fucking huge list of movies to watch to inspire myself to write my screenplay...

Anyways, the movies:

The Princess Diaries, 2001 Whip It, 2009 Save the Last Dance, 2001 Bend it Like Beckham, 2002 The Cheetah Girls, 2003 (TV Movie) Alita: Battle Angel, 2019 American Honey, 2016 Ghost World, 2001 Ichiko, 2023 Skate Kitchen, 2018 Girlhood, 2014 If I Stay, 2014 The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, 2005 Curly Sue, 1991 Gold Diggers: The Secret of Bear Mountain, 1995 The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking, 1988 The Secret World of Arrietty, 2010 Beast of the Southern Wild, 2012

Yeah, all with female teenage or girl leading roles, about sisterhood and female friendship, about adventure, about escapism, about fantasy, about dealing with heavy subjects. Pretty much every movie has something I want to bring into this one screenplay.

They are still together, they never followed each other from the beginning of time but tolami follows all his cousins and brothers and they also have mutual friends so she follows them to including the arsenal page, last two weeks or so they both seen at wizkid’s concert where she was wearing his jacket, there is a video. Before the World Cup she posted more with the back of his head or hand or even his phone but since the World Cup to now she has gained 30k + followers and she is constantly talking about, about her looking like a man or being trans or comparing her looks to men or even talking about how she wants bukayo money and she is a model and Gold digger like she just appeared out of no wear like her and bukayo have been dating since 2019 not even 2020 and she posted her uni grad pic last year and this year her at her work place she now minimizes her comment section interactions except for this one time wear she clarified that she was Yoruba. Once in a while she posts about her being in a relationship not necessarily with bukayo. And it’s low key funny how people noticed her during the World Cup when she went for all the euro games, u know that video/picture of bukayo and jack talking to some girl and people said it was bukayo’s sister/family and Sasha but bukayo does not have a sister. Bukayo has been mentioning from time he had a girlfriend but I also think he is trying to be careful about mentioning things because they are still young and every much active on social media so they see the things said about them…

Just a mini rant

So yeah tolami and bukayo are still intact together

opened a doc from like 2019 and it was my jjba/stardew valley au

Highlights include Dio being mobbed by his brood of children he only has custody of because the other option is foster care or abusive mothers and he is NOT down for that. Also because Diego would kill him with his bare hands. Johnny having a tricked out all terrain wheelchair. Erina constantly asking Yoba for strength not to murder Dio. Jonathan also having this thought. Penny and Erina schooling the children. Jonathan being 59% sure that Dio was the one who stole the old museum collection and just not being sure enough to call him on it when he moves back in. The Zeppeli’s being the closest thing to cops there are in the valley, and they literally just exist to make people sit in time out when festivals get rowdy. Gyro backflipping out of that tradition to train horses on the Joestar’s ranch and helping in the clinic. Speedwagon being the kinda shifty but still more honest than joja middle man that Lewis sells the farmers produce to. The Farmer being Dio’s ex that he walked out on after finding out she was going to have Giorno, getting child support payments and the Joestars waiting to see how long until they find out Dio’s moved back in. The Zeppeli’s are debating if a scythe is a deadly weapon, just in case. Diego initially trying to be a gold digger at said farmer once the farm takes off and then having Conflict over the fact he actually likes her. Bruno existing as the only like non-child later part character just so he can live on the secret beach with his gaggle of misfit children he adopted. He’s a fisherman. Wait no Abbachio is there as a cop that was essentially retired to the post because he tried exposing Joja corruption and got blacklisted. Giorno befriending the jumino the second they show up on the farm. Dio eventually hearing about the farmer before the farmer hears about him and seething that they’re doing better than he is. Baron Zeppeli wooing Marnie out from under lewis because she deserves better.

And also the farmer’s name is Pip and i’m unexpectedly delighted.

[jaxypaxyhaxy]

Apparently some bitches outed Taylor (been married since 2019 to a man) and they’re calling him a gold digger bc the man is 10 years older than him and owns calaminosranch (filthy rich). Since his own fam bc is not rich and he’s not that famous he’s apparently using hubbys money to fly around the world. It’s a rumour but with a lot of evidence either way this is super shitty. Some people are acting like a bunch of miguels

I am so sorry I’m just now seeing this but Is this true??!! I don’t know how I didn’t see this before but I’m like gagged because wtf
