realisation that lenú and lila l’amica geniale are the equal and opposite reaction to tenoch and Julio y tu mamá también
#The repressed working class 60’s Neapolitan lesbians versus the repressed 2000’s middle & upper class Mexican bisexuals#In either case! It’s about class! And a nation at a juncture! And violence seeping at the edges! And repressed queer sexuality#Julio and tenoch fuck once and never talk to each other again lenú and Lila never fuck (acc’d the books) and end up in a psychosexual#Codependency for half a century#Either way! Class issues and the most insane teenage behavior you’ve ever seen and trips to the beach!#L’amica geniale#Y tu mamá también#something about the jealousy rage pent up rage pent up grief at what can’t be I want to put your head through a window I want your life I#Want to be you I want to destroy you forever#The way Julio views tenoch the way Lila vies lenú#I think there’s also so much that’s fascinating in the way l’amica geniale is about Napoli and the way t tu mamá también is about Mexico#With the internal center/periphery dynamics#A story about two poor girls from the ocean-adjacent working class area#And their struggle to/journey to the national capital to the middle and upper classes to the center#And then the story about the boys from the comparatively upper echelons of Mexico City driving out to Chiapas to the beach#Perfect inverses!#A weekend versus fourty years
