#the constant symbolism of red stringing anora and igor together

[sparksstreet]

there is a certain scene in anora that i cannot stop thinking about that is playing over and over again in my head

the positioning of ivan��s mother on the steps of the plane behind ani with ani’s back turned toward her and igor in front of ani. ivan’s mother threatening ani’s entire life when she said she wants to sue them. her asking ani “do you have a house? do you have a car? everyone you love will be ruined” while looking at igor and winking. igor who lives in his grandmothers apartment, who drives his grandmothers car, who answers when they call and does as they say and looks at ani with the utmost understanding and empathy.
