-
What a character chooses to drink says a lot about them
-
A martini, shaken not stirred.
-
if they get a shot of whiskey, they're cool.
-
If they order a fine chardonnay,
-
they're probably trying to go for class.
-
But there's one drink in cinema that requires a bit of explanation
-
I see you're drinking one percent, is that cause you think you're fat?
-
Probably the first thing that comes to mind when you think of milk is youth and innocence.
-
When a sixteen year old, uses his charm and grace to mimic being a pilot
-
We're reminded of his age by his drink choice.
-
Would you like a drink after take-off?
-
Milk?
-
In "A Clockwork Orange", the adolescents drink milk
-
a gentle reminder that all this mayhem is being caused by kids.
-
James Dean famously nurses a bottle of milk in such a way
-
that we get a visual cue of his conflict between maturity in adulthood.
-
Of course if you don't drink milk then you're manly.
-
how tough am I?
-
how tough am I?!
-
I had a bowl of nails for breakfast this morning
-
He, yeah. So?
-
without any milk.
-
Ah.. right this way. Sorry, to keep you waiting.
-
If you want to go for a deep reading
-
you could say that Kevin spilling milk in home
-
alone is a symbol of his lack of
-
\maternal nourishment or you could say
-
John Hughes just wanted the visual joke
-
of everybody crying over spilled milk.
-
But this only scratches the surface many
-
adults also drink milk and that's where
-
it gets more complicated.
-
Milk is a symbol of childishness so it's humorous
-
to see "Leon the professional"
-
a hyper-masculine assassin drinking it throughout the movie.
-
It fits into the
-
comedic moments of the movie, but it also
-
sheds light on his maternal side as he...
-
takes Matilda under his wing
-
in this instance drinking milk is a joke but
-
many times drinking milk has the
-
opposite intent, it's creepy.
-
There's something off about a grown man
-
drinking milk and filmmaker seem to be
-
well aware of this intuition
-
In "Hitchcock's suspicion" the audience
-
suspect that the milk maybe poisoned,
-
it's an eerie choice to have milk, a drink we
-
associate with innocence and purity be
-
the drink that may be poisoned.
-
I don't think it would have had nearly the same
-
effect if it were a cup of coffee or
-
a shot of whiskey
-
there's something delightful about
-
making milk threatening we see this
-
again "Inglorious Basterds" Colonel Hans
-
Landa chugs a glass of milk from Lapid's
-
farm and it has the creepy factor
-
but there's more to it than that
-
I quote the social theorist rolling bars
-
and his take on milk.
-
Monsieur, a votre ami, et a vos vache
-
Je dit, bravo.
-
So, when a villain grabs a glass of milk
-
it's creepy but it also shows their
-
power their conquering the pure and
-
innocent by consuming it and there's
-
a strength to that.
-
When I saw "Mad Max Fury Road"
-
in theaters the only time people
-
audibly cringed in the crowd
-
wasn't during an action sequence
-
it was when this happened.
-
Western culture has an aversion to
-
breast milk seeing it as taboo to drink
-
as an adult.
-
Taste a little smell funky..
-
That's because, that's some Deby's left breast, Greg.
-
The choice to harvest breast milk in the
-
movie further alienate the
-
post-apocalyptic world from our own in
-
"Short mad max fury road" is a movie about
-
fluids women are exploited for their...
-
breast milk men are exploited for their blood
-
and the populace is exploited by
-
controlling the water supply the
-
complete control of these liquids by
-
an Immortal Joe shows his dominion over
-
his world and the milk is no exception
-
in fact his sons drink the mouth to keep
-
up their muscle mass reinforcing the
-
idea that consuming milk is a sign of
-
strength.
-
What's so great about using these
-
liquids in the film is that it allows
-
Mad Max to introduce plot points and
-
...character arcs non-verbally after Mad...
-
Max performs his first selfless act for
-
Furiosa he washes himself with milk.
-
Symbolizing the start of his
-
transformation from a selfish man only
-
looking for survival, to one who cares
-
and nurtures for others return to
-
completely trusting Furiosa is
-
symbolized by him giving her his blood
-
another liquid symbol "Mad Max: Fury Road"
-
is a prime example of milk enhancing the
-
visual storytelling of a movie.
-
Milk is a powerful storytelling device it can show
-
someone as a child but it can also be
-
used to unsettle show character
-
strengths or give information about the plot.
-
So the next time you see a
-
character drinking something ask yourself
-
Got milk?
-
Thanks for watching.
-
Here it is, a groove, slightly trans..-form, just a bit of a break
-
...from the norm, just a little something to break the
-
monotony of all that hard.
