People Still Don't Realize Midsommar Is About White Supremacy!


https://collider.com/midsommar-ari-aster-white-supremacy/

In the years since Midsommar, much has been written about the movie’s portrait of grief and community. Ari Aster’s second feature is also rightfully celebrated as one of the best horror movies ever, and it’s impossible to watch it and remain indifferent to the nightmarish wonders Aster conjured on the silver screen. However, while Midsommar is a layered work of art that invites multiple readings, many people still fail to see the most obvious one. That’s because, at its core, Midsommar is a cautionary tale about the ability of white supremacist groups to increase their ranks with promises of support and comfort.

I look forward to the day idiotic misreadings of movies like this fucking disappear.
