As 'Barbie' fans gathered at the Alamo Drafthouse for the premiere on Friday, director Greta Gerwig stopped by for a surprise visit
David Fear declared the movie was “the most subversive blockbuster of the 21st century to date.” He later added, “It’s definitely not a bad thing to turn a potential franchise, whether built on a line of dolls or not, into something that refuses to dumb itself down or pander to the lowest common denominator.”, Gerwig revealed how one of the film’s most touching scenes almost got cut.
In the scene, Margo Robbie’s Barbie sees an older woman on a beach, played by legendary costumer designer Ann Roth, and tells her she’s beautiful. “It’s a cul-de-sac of a moment, in a way — it doesn’t lead anywhere,” said the director. “And in early cuts, looking at the movie, it was suggested, ‘Well, you could cut it. And actually, the story would move on just the same.’ And I said, ‘If I cut the scene, I don’t know what this movie is about.
