cate blanchett as carol aird “Who is Carol? Carol is a shadowy character subjectively seen through Therese’s lens in the novel. And I think challenge that Phyllis risen to and achieved beyond my wildest expectations was by bring Carol to life on the page and giving her her own heartbeat, not only through the person that Therese thinks Carol is but who she might possibly be. And so there’s a lot of invention. There’s a lot of references made to lawyers meetings and all of those stuffs but Phyllis has actually brought that to life with a real passionate but quiet dignity. I think Carol in a way is…she’s someone with an incredible sense of pride, and is intelligent and sensitive and aware enough to know the way the world works, and that she doesn’t fit within that world. But I think she thinks she’s found a way to operate that’s intensely lonely.” - C.B.

I understand why people are upset that Mildred and Gwen never had a sex scene, at least in season 1, and believe me I would have loved to see their relationship move to that level of intimacy and just to see how Mildred would have handled the situation. But I’ve been thinking and I think the reason that there wasn't a sex scene with them is because all of the sex scenes in the show were just that. Sex was just sex in the show there was no relationship between the characters doing it, and if there was the entire relationship was solely based on the sex they had. I think that with Mildred and Gwen they wanted their relationship to be more solid, be based more on the quiet intimacy the two shared, like the oyster scene or when they were kissing in bed but just ended with touching each others face in the bathroom. It was based on love, not sex.
If you’re still up for talking about Ratched, and cuz I know it’s something we talked about in passing, how do you feel about how the intimacy was handled?
I hope my reply answers this but now that I think about it, I would have liked to see more intimate scenes. To be fair we saw a bunch of hetero sex scenes and Finn pretty much had his dick out like??? it’s ryan m*rphy so I didn’t expect much anyway, but looking back we deserved more than whatever two second scene he did give us :/
sorry if this wasn’t what you meant. but how did you feel about it? 🤔
actually, would love to hear anyone’s thoughts on this!!
@emilyprentissisababe YES!!! You’re amazing! Ahhhhhhhh
you actually died?
*crawls out of my hole* did y’all see this?
Misty meeting her and Cordelia’s daughter Mallory for the first time
I just feel like heaven and hell are a place that’s inside each of us and we’re the ones who choose which one to explore. I mean, like, you know, I think you have to have both to have an understanding of why they exist. Shit wouldn’t be balanced if we didn’t have hell. I don’t think you’d be able to appreciate how amazing it feels to sit on a rooftop with all your friends as you’re watching the sunset listening to your favorite Lorde song if you didn’t want to kill yourself sometimes. You know and I think we’re all like, you know, a step away from both. I feel like both universes are so near to us. I don’t really think that heaven is all the way up at the top of whatever all of this is, and that hell is all the way down at the bottom. I think it’s all right here in front of us. I think they layer onto our realities like filters on an Instagram image. We see our lives through heaven and hell, and I think we always have a say in which one we can choose. You know because, even when your life is dog shit, heaven is just as close as it was before. You don’t really get further away from it, you just lose the ability to take notice of it, I guess. But I know how you feel, man. I feel like God is really quiet sometimes in my stupid life. But I still know that it’s all still right there in front of my face. It’s not really a matter of looking or searching, it’s a matter of seeing things for what they are. It’s all so much closer to you than you think it is. It’s all just a breath away.
