remember: YOU ARE ONE

Nonono wait hear me out. A lesbian in her late 40s who lives her life like she's still in her 20s and despises Elisabeth's public image. Make an enemies-to-lovers scenario where Elisabeth realizes that believing she's done for because of her age is completely untrue, and she gets lesbian sex in the process. A win-win situation.

Lesbians will watch the substance and be like "this never would've happened if her neighbor was a cute younger lesbian."

It's me, I'm lesbians.

the substance is especially crazy to me for how like. sobering it is. when i was watching the movie i just thought about the massive number of ppl (usually women) who are always deriding their younger selves for being too “weird” too “ugly” too “fat”, and to a degree in which they almost seem to take this kind of sick joy in mocking their younger self— as if it’s not still them, as if it’s not still You. a lot of sue’s loathing towards elisabeth comes from this, that she’s “undesirable” and “unlovable” and “old”— and yet that’s HER! you are ONE! you can’t separate yourself from your younger self or older self, no matter how much you might want to. the moment wherein it becomes clear how doomed shit is is when sue & elisabeth act as if they’re separate entities and are constantly mad at each other, engaged within this deadly cycle of sabotage. the moment elisabeth truly cursed herself, really, was the moment she termed her other self “sue”, giving her a different identity. perceiving herself as a different person, even though that’s not the truth at all. she can attempt to separate the two versions of herself with a meaningless name but at the end of the day, it’s still you. and that’s the most terrifying part.

Have you ever dreamt of a better version of yourself? Younger, more beautiful, more perfect. One single injection unlocks your DNA, starting a new cellular division, that will release another version of yourself. This is the Substance. The Substance 2024 | dir. Coralie Fargeat
