us on tumblr like: the most important thing actually is that daniel did nothing wrong in the karate kid part three and he needs to stop framing it to himself and others as if he did
#daniel larusso#tkk3#terry silver#the karate kid part three#daniel babe you were a good boy who was hurt by a bad man that's not on you#i feel like one could do some deep meta on the way he hyperfocuses on the bit where he punched the (paid) harasser#because clearly that Lingered WAY past what it truly was - daniel you punched a guy once for being a creep#and then immediately felt so bad about it that you called hospitals to try to apologise#i wonder though if it hasn't grown in his head - in the absence of being able to directly face what DID happen#he has to focus on something else that puts the agency? blame? narrative? back on him#so instead of what it is: an extended harassment campaign and two grown men manipulating you into hurting YOURSELF#before violently revealing themselves and THEN hurting you again in front of a cheering crowd#(and the mixed feelings of *i love miyagi my father and i cant bear to think that i might have felt let down ever by him*)#it's stripped of the things that were done To Him and instead make him complicit#so when he looks back at tkk3 he doesn't see his own bruises and blood - he only sees this random guy#me cheering that he got to say *you tortured me* to silver because that was more admission than i was expecting#(this is purely holmesian analysis im not speculating on intentionality - im just emotional#man tkk3 is such a dark movie fckn#how many times does daniel get physically hurt in that film???
