    I live in Whanganui and saw a lot of the set for pearl as they were setting it up. Whanganui has a lot of very old buildings so most of the buildings stayed almost the same, they just added a few props and new signs. The theatre still has the ticket booth used in the movie and the alleyway by the movie theatre remains almost identical. Both my mum and sister met multiple actors from both movies and my mum even supplied some props for both movies, overall really cool experience

    My only problem with this film is what I call the Joker effect, where people idolize and sympathize with the title character even though they do horrible things. It’s okay to see yourself in parts of the character but adopting them as something to aspire to be is horrible. Being a Stan to an evil character is not a good thing

    I know it's such a small detail that doesn't matter but Pearl actually DID tell the projectionist that she was married since he asks her a question about her having a husband and she tells him he's overseas. And he also asks for her name after that by prompting her for her last name with "Mrs....?" and she just answers back with "Pearl"

    22:27 I mean none of the characters really “deserved it”
    1. The mom was just trying to be realistic about their situation in life
    2 . The projectionist didn’t know what he was really getting into
    3. The dad couldn’t do anything at all
    4. Mitsy tried to help and it ended up costing her life

      And I suppose when you look at it, Pearl's mother was afraid of her which is why she treated her how she did. She even says it in her monolog before she's burnt when Pearl shoves her into the fireplace

      @@derkommentartor8567But try to place yourself in that situation. As James said, the mother emigrated to the US, and it was not easy earning this new life. Then her husband got seriously sick and as she said, she had to be his mother/carer rather than his wife. Then her daughter is always dreaming about being a star and so on, when on top of everything there is a pandemic and a world war, where the enemy is Germany. Then the cherry on top of that horrible sundae, the mother knows that Pearl is not alright.

    The thing that makes Pearl’s monologue so profound yet terrifying is how relatable it is. Her feelings of anger, regret, insecurity and loneliness are somethings almost everyone’s faced, and Pearl’s dreams and longing being challenged by reality just ground it even more. I found myself almost tearing up at her monologue because I saw parts of myself in her, even though she’s done extremely violent things. It gave me chills! This movie is so masterfully done.
