UPDATES ON “BARBIE”. THE FILM’S OFFICIAL TRAILER IS FINALLY OUT.

The film made by director Greta Gerwing promises to be a wonderful obsession. A real Barbie fever is spreading among social media, more than justifiable given the formidable cast involved in the film (which also includes Will Farrell, America Ferrera and Emma Mackey) and the series of unexpectedly existential and profound themes that the film seems to deal with subtle irony and charming humor. All surrounded by shocking pink scenographies, plastic vibes and other decidedly “aesthetic” elements, which seem to move our attention exactly like the toys we wanted so much as children did.

Now the wait is getting shorter and shorter. After a series of shots and teaser trailers of the live-action Barbie film by Greta Gerwig (director of Lady Bird and Little Women) comes the new trailer of 2 minutes and 41 seconds in which, on the notes of Dua Lipa (also present in the film in role of Barbie Siren), we begin to guess the plot of the film: Barbie (Margot Robbie) will have the task of facing the real world, abandoning her colorful and idyllic comfort zone, together with her boyfriend Ken (Ryan Gosling), thus facing a series of adventures.

The trailer’s caption humorously reads: “To live in Barbie Land is to be a perfect being in a perfect place. Unless you have a full-on existential crisis. Or you’re a Ken.” And sounds exciting.

Lived so far in her enchanted and glamorous pink world, Barbie realizes that something is about to change. In fact, she will have to decide whether to take a leap into reality. Heels or Birkenstocks? The question that is asked to the protagonist in an iconic scene quote from the film ‘Matrix’.

This new official trailer confirms the particularly provocative and revolutionary character of the film, which is full of cinematic references.

You could already tell from the one minute-long first trailer that opened with a gigantic Margot Robbie (the Barbie) towering over a group of young girls while wearing a striped bathing suit – a nod to Barbie‘s first ‘fit’ worn during its inaugural launch in 1959. In the presence of the new it doll, the girls break and destroy their old dolls – a scene very reminiscent of Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Many then noticed a certain feminist vein on which the development of the plot is centered, starting with a clip that accompanied the new trailer on social media which sees the beautiful blonde doll carrying a toy Ken in her arms, which comes to life only when she decides to shake his hand. A sketch that provides a possible interpretation of the ‘female revival‘ of Gerwig’s film.

What’s left to say? For the official release date at the cinema, which is scheduled for July 21st, we will be ready with popcorn in hand.
