Have you ever watched a fictional comedy romantic for teenagers in the 1980s, which represents a problem as much as my progress? Well, if you haven’t done this, you need to verify 1986 Willie Millie. If you have not heard this title before, you may want to search for his alternative addresses, I was a teenage boy and SpecialBut I also know that you can broadcast now Willie Millie Free on Roku at the time of writing this report.
There is a lot to be emptied here, so we may take it directly.
The “grass is always green” scenario.
Willie Millie The film revolves around Millie Nessman (Pamela Adlon), the 14 -year -old girl and obsessed with astronomy. Knowing that her father, Farid (John Jallofer), always wanted a son, not a daughter, Miley feels frustrated by her position in life because she believes that being a child is much easier than being a girl.
Everything changes for Milli when her favorite boyfriend Stephanie (Mary Tanner Billy) sells her eccentric brother, Malcolm (portrayed by Seth Green very little in one of his first roles), a magic talism The next sun eclipse. As it turned out, the deepest and darkest desire of Miley is to become a boy, which is physically manifested in the shape of the male genital organs under the sleeping dress the next day when you wake up.
This caused her mother’s dissatisfaction, Doris (Patti Duke), Millie decided to change her name to Willie and live as a boy, which disturbed her father at the beginning. This is until he realizes that he finally got the son who has always wanted it. After Farid realized that it would be impossible to explain that Willie was a girl named Miley, Farid arranged the transfer of his son to a new school so that he could get a new start after his conversion.
Unfortunately for Willie, he learns to be a boy who faces his own difficulties while trying to move during a teenage life with his new identity. Things continue to complicate Willie Millie When Willie besieged a boy, a seat on a wheelchair named Alfi (Eric Gauri), who feels inconsistent because of his attraction to Willie, who was a girl just one week ago.
Serve amazing, but it is an unfortunate product in its time
Given this Willie Millie I saw a 1986 edition, and I must say that it was actually a previously previously, socially. When Miley turns into Willie, Farid does everything in his power to make sure that his son feels comfortable in his new body. Although Farid is strongly inclined to the sexual norms he is accustomed to as a man who is approaching the middle of the 1980s, such as the teaching of Willie how to boxer and the department until he becomes the male of alpha, he learns quickly Willy on his identity. And he wants to be so, and he never refers to the word “she” after his transfer, and he makes several misleading but good -intentioned attempts to ensure that his ex -daughter feels that she is his son after he decided to live life as a boy.
However, while Farid supports his son’s transfer to power Willie MillieHe still sees the world through the lens of what can be considered today as a blatant example of toxic masculinity. You have to give Farid credit to do his best in the circumstances, but Willie Millie He fails to withstand the microscope today by the time when he reaches his third chapter when two thousand loves to Lieleh and feels a huge amount of shame because of his feelings.
Moreover, you may find that the typical sexual comedy of adolescents in this context is in a bit frightening side. After all, two thousand and his colleagues from obsessed friends have a secret place to hide in the scrap square where they hide from the bullies and try to communicate with girls despite the fact that they have no game at all on the romantic front. I found myself grumbling when Willie went on his sermons in an attempt to appear as sexual experience because the talking room talk can easily be misrepresented as an incredibly forcibly and hated women at times.
One of the films in all ages
Willie Millie It is one of those films that you must appreciate because it is very ambitious, but it definitely deserves criticism because it is not completely committed to the part. On the one hand, it addresses some issues related to the gender that we face today in a way that can make those who suffer from their sexual identity feel they are visible and audible. But each part of the progressive discourse (whether intended or not) is present in it Willie MillieHe ultimately fails to adhere to landing because of the difficulty of his tendency to gender standards that have been prevalent in the past decades.
