    Miranda’s performance is REVOLUTIONARY. She chose to study performances by Clint Eastwood and other strong male actors in preparation for this role. She wanted to assert dominance and power while only speaking in soft tones. Making others have to lean on and pay attention every time she spoke. It’s crazy how she was able to master making you feel yelled at while talking so quietly! You could really feel the hostility with each look. At the same time we caught glimpses of her as a human being with emotions. Over all, Chilling, incredible, perfection.

    Can we just talk about the look on Miranda's face when she says "everyone wants this" not only tells US that she has a hard time with it, but tells us that SHE is aware she has a hard time with it. She has several of those looks, so subtle and quick, another being the "why would I cancel" when she's crying about the divorce. She knows exactly why, she just knows she can't afford too and it stings. To portray that in such a subtle and quick way speaks volumes to the casting, directing, and writing.

      I remember reading that the original line was "everybody wants to be me" and meryl streep changed it to "us" which i feel like really shows that miranda sees Andy (and her team as a whole) as an extension of herself and that's why she has such strong demands of all of them, not only that but it hammers home that Andy has become "one of them" whether she was willing to admit it or not

    I LOVE the smile at the end, because when they’re at the OG James Holt preview, Stanley Tucci is all ‘Miranda has smiled once on record’ and it was viewed as her ultimate seal of approval. So to give it to Andy in that final meeting, after she’d walked away from runway, it’s like Miranda was acknowledging that Andy leaving was the right decision. In the end Andy made the ‘Miranda call’ and didn’t allow herself to be backed into a corner. She was her own woman. As much as I wanted to see Andy continue to slay it, I think Miranda would’ve respected her less if she’d stayed.

AND THEN we get such a wholesome redemption for Andy at the ending with the clothes and seeing Emily's reaction.

      The reason Miranda said Emily wasn’t on the team at all is because she was no longer the best assistant, but the choice not to go would basically force Miranda to take Emily or find someone else.
      Unfortunately they decided to have Emily suffer that accident, which basically strips Andy from the responsibility, since now if she decided to refuse Miranda would probably have to find a 3rd assistant or take an injured Emily that would likely end up losing her job for not being able to keep up.

    i have no idea what this channel is about, i dont usually watch these types of videos on youtube, i dont even know if i would consider this like a video essay thing, all I know is that your personality, narration and personal breakdown of this movie completely enthralled me and I love exactly how it touches on some key things (like how deep the fashion industry choices affects us and that butterfly effect) from the movie but its doesnt get too analytical. And this brought out a lot of parts from the movie i didn't even remember since its been a while since i watched it. By the end of the video, I kinda teared up bc I didn't really get what happened in the ending of the movie until seeing how you explained it now. Wow. Really. I didn't know I needed this video in my life, it closes so much of the vagueness I felt around a childhood movie. You're already at like 733k, but best know that you have a new sub from me bc of this

      Watch his PLL videos next. They're what brought me into the Mike's Mic universe and some of his best work in my opinion
