"Austin Butler as Benny reminded me a bit of Joaquin Phoenix’s character in The Master, maybe because he’s untameable in a similar way. You’ve mentioned that you didn’t add very much to the page for Austin to work from. What compelled you to approach the character that way and how did Austin respond to that?" --- "Austin just brought so much more to it. Because he is just so much more. The guy is a pretty profound heartbeat. And my idea for Benny is that he’s an empty glass, he has no bottom. He is not designed or built to hold the aspirations of others. And this woman and club leader want things from this guy, and they’re putting things on him, and he can’t bear the weight of them, he’s not designed to hold their dreams for them. The design of him is to start as this very attractive, very appealing, strong silent type but if you pull the thread on that a little bit more, where does that take you? The most heartbreaking moment in the film is when Kathy confronts him after the red dress scene. And he says to her: “What did you think this was? What did you think this was ever going to be?” And the reason why it’s so tragic is that we all know, and Kathy knew, that he was right.“ Why did you ever look at me and think you were going to get some other result? I literally have a middle finger sewed to my jacket!” [laughs]. It’s heartbreaking because she knows he’s being honest, but that doesn’t mean you’re not pulled in by it and attracted by it. And it’s not about being attracted to the bad boy—that’s a silly reduction of it. It’s about wanting more freedom in your life. It’s about wanting to experience life in a passionate way. It’s easy to look down on it and it’s easy to look down on people who have fallen for that. But I think we’re being dishonest when we say we don’t want the same thing. In that way, Benny’s very honest, and Kathy’s even more honest. She’s just tryna taste something in life–but it’s dangerous." - Jeff Nichols (source)

random. i think kaia should have crawford in her name, it's more iconic.

lolll see i get what you meant but it just sounds Wrong to me like kaia gerber just flows better i think the k sound and the c sound clash

super interesting article from right after elvis died abt fan merch. found this on accident, but am glad i did!

'I always remind myself that my social media is a representation of one part of who I am, but not my entire being. That’s important when I’m looking at other people’s going: "Why is their life so perfect?" And then I remember I’m not posting some of the darker times in my life. You need to have grace and forgiveness for both yourself and others on how they portray themselves online.'

This makes this Kaia’s longest relationship so far, so cute 🥹

yes now that it's december, a very happy almost anniversary to austin and kaia! to many more ya lovebirds 🍻

The odds of austin going to the eras tour in LA are low, but never zero

this working out the way it did was sooo fun LOL i wish i could recrate the joy i felt when i saw the first tweet spotting them there that night. i was moving into my apartment with my mom and she was like ?!?! bc i had a very physical reaction and gasped. top 10 fandom memory for sure!

[bcofl0ve]

At the end of the day if the only thing people can hate on Austin for is his voice, then we're doing alright. Yes it's incredibly annoying having to see all the shade towards Austin about it, but clearly he's doing something right if that's all the ammo the internet has to use on him.

amen and amen. you know he's good people when the literal only reasons anyone ever cites for disliking him are his voice and breaking up with v- which is equally ridic lol.

Did something happen to pappiaustin?

i'm sooo convinced someone in either k or austin's circle read her the riot act or scared her in some capacity. like she still mentions kaia here and there but she's more or less completely stopped what she was "known for", which imo her stubborn ass wouldn't have done unless someone gave her a good reason to/she got spooked by someone telling her off.

[bcofl0ve]

Kaia and Austin are always lovey and dovey when locals spotted them 🥺🥺🥺

it warms my heart that even ppl outside of our fandom bubble are always talking abt how lovey they are when spotted out and about. or how much they're making out LOL. and it goes to show it's not JuSt FoR tHe CaMeRaS like some ppl would like to believe.

[bcofl0ve]

austin and kaia so close? like i knew it if she stayed in new york a little longer he would travel there too, not to mention that they are always holding hands or she is holding his arm and he has his arm around her, they seem kinda inseparable lol

when i called him a puppy for going to germany when she had only been gone for a couple days i got told i was bullying him LOL but *i* find it sweet that they go so many places together and that is my dreammm relationship. he was also at jaya's (laura dern's daughter, kaia's good friend) birthday dinner with her recently. you think they talked about austin and kaia making out in front of them in the vip tent at the eras tour? /j

I was wondering if you saw Songbirds & Snakes, and what your thoughts on it were?

i haven't had time but i want to eventually, was a big hunger games girlie as a teenager. rachel zegler and i were on teen broadway stan twitter at the same time, in different friend groups but the bubble was small enough that i "saw her around". the day it came out she booked WSS is tbh one of my fav social media memories ever just because the entire tl was just so so happy to see "one of our own" get such a huge win. from what i remember she is still the sweet and funny girl she was before she "made it", and it makes me so happy to see her becoming such a star! very very much deserved.
