Noah Baumbach and Greta Gerwig respond to “anti-man” criticism regarding ‘Barbie’

As we head into Oscar season, one thing seems inevitable: while so many new contenders have officially entered the race just in November or December, “Poor Things,” “Maestro,” “The Holdovers,” “American Fiction,” and “Killers Of The Flower Moon,” the 2024 Oscars may be the first Academy Award season that boils down to two summer blockbuster movies: “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer.” And yes, it’s funny to think of those two films as summer blockbusters in the traditional sense, given they’re not superhero movies or action franchises, but let’s face it, they are; one grossed over 1 billion dollars (Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie”), and one came super close to that exact figure (Christopher Nolan’s movie).

Greta Gerwig has admitted that she wasn’t allowed Barbie dolls as a child.According to the director, her mother was initially against the idea because it reinforced female stereotypes.She told Lauren Laverne on BBC Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs: “My mom wasn’t so into Barbie. Certain moms, they would be like: ‘I don’t know if this is a good example of womanhood,’ the body type and everything … she was less excited about that.“But I got hand-me-downs from girls in the neighbourhood where I was growing up and so I got a lot of pre-loved dolls.”She went on to say that her mother eventually bought her a doll one Christmas.Gerwig added: “Although my mom, I will give her credit, she did give me a doll, a proper doll, for Christmas, in a box.

Greta Gerwig is revealing that Barbie star Ryan Gosling had a peculiar idea for his “I’m Just Ken” musical number that would have him feuding with his mink coat.

Jazz Tangcay Artisans Editor When Greta Gerwig worked with costume designer Jacqueline Durran on “Little Women,” the pair went on a trip to a building in London’s Docklands to draw inspiration for the adaptation. “There were old file cabinets labeled ‘British Gardens 1830-1835′ and things you couldn’t find anywhere,” Gerwig recalls. “There were out-of-print books and original frames for making corsets and hoop skirts.” A few years later, the director would turn to Durran to help bring the aesthetic of “Barbie” to life.

So the rumors from earlier this year are true: Noah Baumbach is returning to Netflix for his next film. But the rumor mill got the leads of the film wrong or at least one-half of them.

While it may not be the overall best movie of 2023, “Barbie” certainly is the movie of 2023. It was the year’s highest-grossing film, brought the Kenergy, and is a profoundly rewatchable film.
