much to be said about the fact the costume designer for heated rivalry said that shane and yuna are both wearing linen in the coming out scene on purpose. because she wants it to be obvious that yuna buys shane clothes. and then shane subsequently makes active choices to wear those clothes when he is around her because he wants her to know that he loves her. but he also wants to show that he can be what she wants him to be by wearing what she wants him to wear. not sure if i have the strength to say it. in fact i need to lie down
coming back to this i think it is so interesting how in the most recent comments she made about the costumes she said that yuna buys shane linen because it’s what she wears, so she knows that it’s nice and comfortable, but it requires “more upkeep than he is interested in”, which is why it’s not ironed and he doesn’t seem to take care of it. that particular phrase is so awesome. something his mother has given him “Requires More Upkeep Than He Is Interested In” but he keeps it and wears it and carries it around with him to show her he appreciates that she gave it to him. in the books he wears a shirt related to a charity event to signal to his parents that he’s a “good person”. remember me, your son, who does charity events? remember me, your son, who is a good and normal person who does good and normal things? and this shirt does the same thing without the addition of a logo. remember me, your son, whom you love? you bought me this shirt. and i’m wearing it not only because i love you but because i need you to remember that you love me
kind of obsessed with someone saying that hudson williams’s mannerisms presenting the golden globes were jensen acklesesque and now i unfortunately cannot unsee it
Gröning proposed the idea for the film to the monks in 1984, but the Carthusians said they wanted time to think about it. They responded to him 16 years later to say they were willing to permit him to shoot the movie if he was still interested.
