    A very common thing in our society is a kind of assumed belief that people of different races and sexualities first started appearing anywhere as early as the 1930’s to as late as the 1987 film Mannequin

    Absolutely everything weird and strange about me can be traced back to the fact that I watched the movie Mannequin no less than 100 times before I turned 8.

    Saw a post about how Stanley Kubrick said Eraserhead was his favorite film and someone commented “that’s surprising.” No, that isn’t surprising. It would be surprising if Stanley Kubrick’s favorite film was Mannequin 2: On the Move.

    It's always funny to me that films like this are described as "twisted" when it comes to a woman finding a non-human love interest when Mannequin (film) and Pygmalion (myth) exist. (Mind you, this one is also literally twisted, because look at that beautiful wickerwork twisting in the features)

    A good stoner movie needs good music, and 'The Wrong Girls' understood the assignment. The Kristen Stewart and Alia Shawkat film has a Ty Segall score, a Mannequin Pussy cameo, plus music from Sheer Mag and Tacocat.

    When it's revealed 15min into the movie that Kristen Stewart is going to a Mannequin Pussy concert to run into her ex who is a man, I actually said "oh" out loud. We are only shown either of them being into dudes. For the first few minutes I just assumed Stewart and Shawkat were a couple!

    I watched Mannequin because it's a shit film that I quite like. You can see it has a case of quite-good-actors-with-very-little-material--to-work-with. So you have James Spader really hamming it up because his character is so dull and one dimensional. But Kim Catrall and the other guy do go well together and they make the movie worth watching. It's not so much great on-screen chemistry, it's just that they play their parts well. #Movies #Mannequin
