The director of the materialist calls “Broke Man Propaganda” Comment “Grausam”

Materialist The filmmaker Celine Song claps back to those who have described their film as “Broke Man Propaganda”.

During a recent interview with Refinery29The author director behind the romantic film reacted to the “very cruel” comment, who surrounded the relationship between Dakota Johnson and Chris Evans' characters Lucy and John.

“I think it doesn't make me laugh because it is really disappointing for me,” said Song. “I think there is a very real confusion about feminism and the history of feminism. Intersectionality was so much of feminism about anti-companies and anti-capitalists, and of course it was always in the foreground in the fight against capitalism.

The Past life The director continued: “The thing that is very important to me is to emphasize that poverty is not the fault of the poor. And I think that it is very brutal. I think it's very cruel to talk about John as a character that loves Lucy and who is a beautiful character that is beautifully played by Chris to be played in such cruel terms as” Crake Boy “.

Materialist Follow Lucy, a young, ambitious New York Matchmaker who is torn between the perfect game, the wealthy financier Harry (Pedro Pascal) and her imperfect ex-boyfriend, who fights fighting actor John.

“There is something about classism, the kind of poverty, the hate of poor people, who in turn are not their fault that they are poor,” added song. “I think that is a very disturbing result of the way the wealthy people came into our heart, how it is their fault when they are poor, a bad person when they are poor. So it doesn't make me laugh.”

The filmmaker continued: “I am very concerned about my film and characters talk about my film and really classically think about it. Throughout the film, it is about fighting the way capitalism tries to colonize our hearts and colonize love.”
