There's an Interview with Alicia Debnam-Carrey (Nikki) where she Talks about it and it's so interesting. They shot the movie in 18 days! And they had a couple of days before that in a workshop where they were all learning off each other, how they talked and moved, their energies etc. It really sounds like such a fun Job experience😂

@ryantalley5284
@ryantalley5284 17 дней назад
I can kind of see that being justified by the fact that the people you'd expect to care most were preoccupied with their own stuff. The closest person to Brooke was Maya, and she was more worried about why this was the universe's way of punishing her for trying to cheat on her boyfriend and how this was effectively her being reborn. The closest people to Reuben were Cyrus and Dennis, and they're both selfish assholes, so they were only concerned about what those deaths meant for themselves.

While I agree the whole consent thing just goes to show how bad everyone in the friend group is, I was a minority at a white suburban school and the way Nikki spoke to, around, and about POC brought back some vivid and unpleasant memories. She was racist, not in a hateful way but as someone too arrogant to really think of other people's issues as real. Which is why she stays racist despite having POC friends. You can't reason with people like that, they act all victimised and whinge about how they're one of the good ones. I think that's why Shelby (POC) had that outburst at Nikki near the end (Nikki says some wacky stuff about Brooke a few times that's racially charged).

Unfortunately it's a bit like Primer - great film, but way too much of a headf%&k to take it all in on the first 'go round'; but while easily good enough to bear a second viewing ( _four_ might be pushing it!), by then you're after spoiling it on yourself! It might actually have been no bad thing if I'd had this video to hand to refer to as and when necessary! "It's What's Inside" is a bit like one of those books that comes with a 'dramatis personae' at the beginning - while glad that the author has troubled to put one in to help 'slow readers' such as myself, one also groans inwardly with the feeling that "this is going to be like homework"! (Worth it though!) One nitpicky observation - though the film is brilliantly written, it might appear that the mind~swap machine is an obvious McGuffin; in truth, it's more than just a 'device' (no pun intended), its use really is central to the plot; in fact so much of the science fiction heavy lifting in the story depends on it that without it the film just becomes like a cross between one of those "College friends reunited" movies like 'St. Elmo's Fire' or 'The Big Chill', and one of those High School/College 'intrigues and recriminations' series such as '13 Reasons Why'... I can't quite tell if this is deliberate, those genres are certainly popular enough, or if, as I actually suspect, the film is trying to undermine those clichés and expectations; either way, between that and the central relationship drama, 'Forbes' didn't arrive a minute too soon, given that I was psyching myself up to chew off my own foot! As I say, this is just an observation, not a criticism; for me, they cut it tight, timing wise, with the deployment of the machine (if we leave to one side its appearance during the opening credits), but they get away with it! I think many people though will actually enjoy the setting up of the film's more interpersonal elements in their own right. Actually, while I realize such crass generalizations are these days rather frowned upon, even though I would recommend this film to anytone without hesitation, with "It's What's Inside"s well crafted characters and relationships, I think this might be one of those relatively unusual Sci~Fi films that might appeal more to a _female audience?_ Lastly, I feel I just _have to_ congratulate David W. Thompson, who plays the supposed 'Forbes' - or should that be, commiserate with?! I can just imagine the call to the casting agent - "Who have you got that just radiates 'Sleazoid Douchebag' from every pore?!" Right from the get~go the character is already operating on peak _"well_ dodgy" settings (it has to be said, in fairness, Thompson brings the face for the role!), but when it's Forbes' body channeling the _truly_ sleazy Cyrus (a man you _already_ wouldn't 'trust as far as you could throw him'!) the needles start peaking _dangerously_ into the red! Oh, and this really is last from me; the scene where Shelby - I _think_ Shelby - it's only been a few hours and already my head is hurting trying to parse it all(!) - threatens to burn down Nikki's career as an influencer had me howling! The way she nails that vapid social media culture (which so many of us are prisoners of) was comedy gold, far and away the funniest thing in the movie!

I actually like that they didn’t. It showed Shelby never truly wanted to do it (she was annoyed with Cyrus and just said she would do it to get him to be quiet). She proved it was her with her own way. It was kind of like she was separating that connection between them. “I won’t do what you want anymore” Since it showed in their relationship that she was more likely to bend to do what he wanted. Sorry if this did not make a whole lot of sense.

Warning SPOILER comment: I did a rewatch to try and pick up on some hints - one potential giveaway: I thought “Forbes” was acting weird when Cyrus first approached him (when he started venting about Shelby). If I recall correctly, Cyrus greeted him as “Game Boy” and Forbes seemed confused about this nickname. Not sure if that would be a nickname Beatrice was familiar with but I imagined it was a name only his college buddies referred to.

When Cyrus is trying to convince Shelby to play the game, "Forbes" and Maya are having a conversation at the same time, and we can hear bits of it throughout the scene. In it, "Forbes" expresses surprise at Maya having been to Hawaii and mentions something about Las Vegas. Both of these places are places Dennis promised Beatrice he'd take her to. Also, in the scene where Nikki smears peanut butter on Shelby's face, during all the red segments, Forbes is JUST out of frame, despite being in the same room as everyone else and everyone else being shown as who they actually are. This is because if they showed Forbes in the red scenes, we wouldn't see Forbes. We'd see Beatrice.

Probably my favourite hint to Forbe’s identity was how nice he was to Shelby, because she wasn’t at the party Beatrice obviously wouldn’t know who she was and wouldn’t actually hold resentment towards her. That’s why Shelby gets her body back at the end and gets off relatively scot free

When I tell you I wanted to laugh so hard BECAUSE (since this is my second watch) I already knew that was Beatrice in Forbes body. The actors do a great job portraying each other and each other’s inflictions. Forbes smile when he came in resembled Beatrice’s smile from the flashbacks.

I do personally wish they had done more with the horror potential of this concept beyond what happened in the second act, but overall it was pretty solid for what it presented.

I suspected Beatrice was in Forbes, just because the whole thing reminded me of an old Fear Street book where a group of friends have a reunion after one of the girls’ little sister died the year before. They start being murdered one by one and the twist is the sister didn’t die, she just fell really far. She crawled up out of the pit and murdered her older sister and then invited all the friends back who were kind of responsible for her “death” by negligent/reckless behavior.

@@coolcoolcoolcoolnodoubt2590 The series is called "Fear Street" by RL Stine and I thiiiiink the particular book she's talking about is "The Surprise Party" but it also might be "Switched". The books were written in the late 80s/early 90s for middle school/high school kids so they're a bit juvenile (considering what adult authors/publishers back then thought were appealing to/appropriate for that age group) but some of them hold up reasonably well. Ditto with Christopher Pike's books aimed at the same demographic. As long as you're not expecting anything too deep - back then it was a rare exception to get much more than a surface level character arc, or dealing with real trauma. I mean, that's not to say that the death of a sibling isnt "real trauma" but it wasnt dealt with typically by the POV character. Future books like The Hunger Games & the ideas that kids could and would enjoy books about dealing with poverty, politics, war, death, and PTSD opened a lot of eyes.

Shelby went from being my favourite character and the one I related to the most in the beginning to my least favourite next to Cyrus at the end. I mean girl, if your terrible boyfriend is already checked out, leave him. Break up with him. Don’t try and sabotage the life of the woman he’s been pinning over just because you’re so insecure and full of self-loathing. Especially when Nicki was never into him nor wasn’t even aware of his feelings.

I actually don't think Shelby was really planning to steal Nikki's body away. At the end, she says "somebody (Bea) gave me a really good idea to get the truth out of you" and "I never said that's what I wanted"- so she was only proposing it to Cyrus so he would tell the truth to her, and after they switched to their OG bodies she'd know she had to break up with him. I deffo believe she was reluctant at first, but I feel like the movie was pretty clear on her not actually wanting to go through with it and I'm a bit shocked most people didn't seem to interpret it that way? Nikki was actually the one who ruined things by not trusting Shelby, though I don't blame her at all considering how Shelby acted earlier. Also, nobody points out that Cyrus was the one who was 100% OK with taking Nikki's body from her! That IS super messed up, but people are attributing that to Shelby instead of him which is so wild to me. Like, he technically never got to do it, but like, I think someone who plans out a murder with full intent to do it should still go to jail even if they're caught before getting the chance

SPOILER I couldn't help but feel bad for Brooke even before the body switching. When she's passionately showing her art its a bit heartbreaking how Nikki comments on her single status 'despite her skills'. Maybe she was giving a compliment, but I couldn't help but get the feeling that she was secretly putting her down despite her own single status. That look of insecurity on Brooke's face explains why her and Shelby later on are paralleled in enjoying being in another's body to receive physical attention and thus what they think is gratification for themselves. While I wouldn't say Nikki deserved what she got, her self serving actions and lack of sincere caring for her friends contributed to the tragedy. If only she was a more self aware friend to Brooke, then maybe those deaths could of been avoided.

I’m fascinated by this film’s story. It’s been a while since I was so immersed and engrossed by a film that I desperately want a sequel just to see what happens to the characters next. The last time anything similar happened to me was when I read NOS4A2 last summer, but that feels much more conclusive to me, so I don’t need a sequel to it. Back to the subject of this film. It’s AWESOME! The direction is wonderfully concise and communicative, the cinematography is beautiful and expressive, the acting and character work are varied and deep, the plot is wonderfully byzantine and interesting, and the themes are incredibly human and poignant. One other thing I really want to emphasize is the films usage of film as a medium. The framing, movement of the camera, and sound editing are actually used to convey the narrative, rather than the film settling for a static and uncreative style, and it really adds to the experience.

Just came back from watching this!! As soon as you put in that flashback clip to show off the editing style I needed to see this movie in full and I am so glad I did!! I'm a sucker for mystery movies (huge Knives Out fan) and this completely delivered in so many ways while also being entertaining and fun to look at. While there were a ton of characters to keep track of, each one had an entirely different character trope going on, so I could always fall back on that while I was still learning names, and the reveal sequences with the red lighting were very helpful, while also being nicely forshadowed by Brooke's sketchbook. Out of everyone, I think my favorite characters had to be Maya and Shelby. Maya because the whole spiritual second life take was some refreshing comedy as things ramped up, and Shelby because I empathize with her feelings of inadequacy towards body image and social standing. Clearly she began hating her self image because of Cyrus (he can go fuck himself because she is gorgeous, but then again I guess he already was), and having the person with millions of instagram followers also be the person you know your partner is lusting after doesn't help. I'm glad she realized his bullshit and switched back into herself, because I DID NOT want them to stay together. Don't think Cyrus deserves jail time, but I'm glad she didn't go through with staying in Nikki's body, and her quoting him through the prison phone was great. (Also love that Maya spoke up in the mirror room. We stan girl supporting girls

Yes, this reminded me a lot of Glass Onion, mostly in the quirky aesthetic and playing with perspectives and keeping you guessing until the end and the fun characters who are awful but relatable. I actually saw Glass Onion first (because it was streaming on Netflix), and I loved it so much I immediately went to see the first Knives Out, and I honestly did not like it! Glass Onion was so fun and delicious, Knives Out felt so boring in comparison. Plus, Chris Evans' character was so obviously the "bad guy". Maybe I would have liked it better if I saw it first, I don't know. (I actually thought that maybe the two movies had a different director because the tone is so different between the two, but nope! Same guy!)

I would hate to do that to Nikki, like he would touch himself in that body so much and be really weird about it 🤢. Also, regardless about his feelings, it would be a "fresh start" to have a new body where he wouldn't need to grapple with the consequences of his actions in the same way. He could use his new life to run away from his problems and avoid properly acknowledging his role in everything. Something which he definitely would do, because in the end where he says he'll talk about marrying Shelby if she helps him out of jail, he is just as spineless as he's always been. The way it happened in the movie was perfect, because all the shit he did landed him alone. He doesn't get to pretend like the face he sees in the mirror every day isn't the one who messed things up with Shelby, because it's his body, and he doesn't get to project or push his problems onto other people. He has to shoulder it by himself, as himself.

I liked that green was the color of highly emotional points in the movie. I am sure the colors have to do more with Brooke’s drawing at the beginning too, but I thought of how green is usually envy. Especially the green color they used in the movie. Since this movie was all about being other people. I think Brooke’s drawing had something to do with emotions when the green shade was used as well, but I forgot. Anyway, it was a fun movie and a good review!

Honestly, I really think this has enough potential material in it for a sequel. A part of me can even see it as a wedding whodunit series. It would have had to slow-burn a little bit, but it would have been really fun to quietly observe stuff unravel as people start giving themselves away. Especially if these folks hadn't really interacted since college: how would you know for sure you're talking to the person you think you are, if you introduce the element of changing after college, or the different ways we characterize shared experiences, or fundamentally misunderstanding or miscalculating your friendship?

I enjoyed this movie so much! It was refreshing to have a plot that wasn't entirely predictable. I enjoyed the exposition at least having an interesting delivery with dialogue not just a monologue. I felt they struck a good balance of letting us in on who was who, and keeping us in the dark as it served the plot. The characters were largely unlikable, but they deliver on interest which I personally value more in a narrative. I hope more movies come out that surprise and entertain me as much as this one did.
