Warrior (Cat) Nun, what can I say.
So I’ve seen people talking about this scene. Some argue she’s checking to see if the light will burn but come on, why she caressing the sheets like that if that’s the case? Makes no sense.
The argument that this is where Bea would sleep is a lot more plausible. Especially since this scene comes shortly after Ava asked Bea to run away with her. That’s all the convincing I need.
Now, I’ve also seen people suggest that maybe they’ve continued to share a room here since they got used to it in Switzerland. Some people have pointed out that there are a couple times, like when Vincent is in the room, where Bea just marches in no hesitation.
But I think this right here is stronger evidence
I’ve seen poeple talking about how Ava barely looks surprised to see Bea standing there.
When I first saw this, I assumed Ava was storming out, as in out of the room. But she’s actually storming into the bedroom. Where Bea just came from.
It’s implied there’s an exterior door in the bedroom as well but like, either Bea was already in there, or she just straight up walked into the bedroom. No knock. No hello. Just directly into the room where they sleep.
I know we’ve all been waxing lyrical about Alba’s acting skills on numerous occasions, but I wanted to zoom in on this moment for a second. Her expression: it’s so layered. It’s right after she blew up the wraith to save Beatrice, and there’s just so much in Ava’s expression in this moment. It’s “I know you’re mad at me, but I would do it again and I’m not sorry” but at the same time it’s “I’m sorry about everything because I know this means we have to leave this life we’ve built that I love so much” and it’s “I was scared for you” and it’s “I know I screwed up but I’m just glad you’re safe” and it’s “I love you desperately” and it’s “I regret everything” and it’s “you’re my whole world and I couldn’t live with myself if I let anything happen to you” and it’s “please don’t hate me” and it’s in a way a small preview of Ava doing something she knows Beatrice would be mad at her for, but she does it anyway to protect her, because she loves her.
Ava Silva + being smarter than everyone else thinks she is
Alba, the woman that you are, you’ve done it. you’ve created the best moment in television history. this is it. it peaked right here. because hand to god i’ve never seen the Oh acted out before my eyes until this moment. and I fear I never will again
my controversial take on this is that I don’t think it’s the moment ava realised she was in love with beatrice
i think ava has already fallen in love with her a hundred times over. i think ava has looked at her like this often. daily, even. but always when beatrice isn’t looking back. when she is allowed to
i don’t think it’s the moment ava realises she loves bea. i think it’s just another moment where she is overwhelmed by how much she does
the holy trinity of "silly little highschool girls go psycho" movies:
heathers (1988)
mean girls (2004)
do revenge (2022)
DO REVENGE (2022) + Letterboxd Reviews
MAYA HAWKE as ELEANOR LEVETAN Do Revenge (2022)
Why is nobody talking about Eleanor calling Drea “revenge mommy.” Was that not the most homoerotic thing?? They want to kiss so bad
Maya Hawke as Eleanor Levetan — DO REVENGE (2022)
Talia Ryder as Gabbi Broussard DO REVENGE (2022)
the whole plot of do revenge can basically be narrowed down to "i support women's rights but more importantly, i support women's wrongs"
this unhinged lesbian could do revenging on me and i'd thank her :)
guys maybe im just a deranged fucking lesbian but i think do revenge is like my favorite movie now
