Great breakdown. I also experienced young people sneak into the cinema to watch it. Less pleasant experience, they came in 30 minutes late, yelled out responses to characters dialogue, then left 30 min later.
Thank you Julian,once again, for the reading of the film and the strings you knitted together, so eloquently theorising,far beyond the cinematic language
I think Anora perfectly understands that she just change employer( how else you can understand frase "you want to be yours little wifey ". But actually this change is for more easy work with bigger wages( and both differences is very huge), so this as totally in her profit, and this is seen that she do not believes to be looked down as disgrace, because we were raised to believe in equal dignity of every person, and do not await someone to believe otherwise
For me, the movie portrays the enjoyment of the (perverse) drive - if the family business is the Big Other, then the henchmen are fully immersed in the enjoyment of the Other's crisis, which, objectively, is not a crisis at all (an immature teen runs down the block, gets drunk, ends up in a club, and acts like an idiot). The "seriousness" of the entire situation is manufactured entirely for the sake of the drive - everyone is complicit in their own melodrama. At the end, when the Other materialises in the form of the teen's parents, the father laughs at the chaos, which is literally the enjoyment of the Other - the situation was never serious, it was always a farce. However, there are two exceptions: Igor, and Anora herself. Despite his outbursts, Igor is fundamentally a figure of desire, whereas Anora is, in my opinion, on the brink of psychotic collapse; the final scene shows the impossible situation of a desire that cannot be fulfilled for Igor, and Anora's "tender" final act that is devoid of all symbolic meaning.
Since I have been watching this shit, it feels like an absurd miracle dream. Bro looks like this main character from Ratatouille having changed from 2D to 3D, as he swapped his rat for the philosopher stone, and holding readings about Zizek to his cooking chef as he goes absolutely crazy over the change of mind. Btw. Cool vid.

Why did I think this was Julian in the thumbnail
and the unseen facilitators can also be managers, accountants, bankers, policemen, and investors
Guys, by any chance, do you know where I could watch it for free? Thanks in advance! 🙏
It's still in theaters

What is with the ending? Why is she so mean to the bodyguard?
lol - I bet Zizek finds this guy to be an "essential worker" - of course he can't remember his name but he might have an anecdote about that
