Barbie Ruth Handler Scene, Barbie Take My Hand Scene, Barbie Feeling Scene #barbie2023 #barbie • Billie Eilish - What W... Sorry for the abrupt ending.
It’s so odd that there was so much controversy about this movie. In my eyes it had very little to do with men and women, and had more to do with being human, and what that means.
I cried harder during this scene than I ever did in any movie in my 50 years. Wasn't expecting real home movie footage popping in after all the hot pink surreal Barbie imagery. All my memories of my life with my mom, her life with her mom, and so on flooded through. And Barbie came to life by being empathic and taking it all in. So good.
@@jamk2668Yh no offence but damn what about the green mile good will hunting Schindlers list and many more emotional films I did cry to this but not like the others
@@evenyou_brutus okay that does make sense ❤️ i do cry and get emotional when I’m thinking about people I love very much and movies are subjective to individual people
Im a grown man, but this scene made me feel somewhat emotional, and almost made me cry. Very deep, and touching statement made here. It's not about being a man or a woman, but being human, and nobody can tell you how to be human, you get to define who you are as a person. Amazing movie.
Im a grown man and I was hiding my face during this scene because of how much it hurt, and had to take a couple hours after the movie to let that feeling out. Now I just listen to this song when I want my numb body to remember what it feels like to be human.
Same...at the theatre I was the only guy by myself, so my eyes got watery...but I held it in as much as I could. Then, on the way home I cried silently in my car, and then when I got home I cried some more. When she said the words "being a human can be pretty uncomfortable"..."humans make things up like patriarchy and Barbie just to deal with how uncomfortable it is"...that 'stung' quite a bit, as it made me realize why 'we' do what we do or why 'we' are how we are sometimes. It brought me back to myself too. The movie was incredible, I had to purchase the Blu-Ray.
Everyone loves ken, but barbie had one of the best arcs i've seen in any satire. It was treated very seriously despite being mostly a comedy. She truly wanted more than just being stereotypical. She achieved her goal but truly suffered for it. But that's the point: she actually felt something, cause she is no longer an idea 💗
I didn’t love Ken at all 😒 He was so annoying, desperate, whiny and needy . The Ken tries to take over Barbie Land part was awful to me . I didn’t enjoy it at all . And even though I didn’t like Ken I still didn’t like how mean Barbie treated him throughout the movie either . Maybe it’s the casting. I know a lot of people love Ryan Gosling but I have never been a fan of his 🤷♀️ There were definitely parts of this movie I loved and definitely parts I did not !
@missyrose2154. I took Ryan gosling's "annoyingness" to be the major point. Many Women try sooooooo hard to be pleasing to people. They lose themselves sometimes, becoming clingy and whiny. The people they're trying to please then get annoyed by it, and frankly bored then disgusted with this woman for not having her "own identity". So the woman goes to the opposite extreme, deciding that men are the problem and they need to be squashed. Thus, taking down the patriarchy. And then her line "humans make up things like the patriarchy to deal with how uncomfortable..." it is to be human. Men and women must love and respect ourselves to see that pleasing someone else is not our purpose...
The girl who puts on blush and winks in the mirror is a bride getting ready on her wedding day. All those beautiful clips showing what it's like to be human came from the cast & crew
@@sose6255 just say you hate women and move on, you probably thought this was some anti-men shit when its literally poking at the patriarchy and making fun of it 💀kens storyline is huge in this movie and it's the exact opposite of what all the negative reviews make it out to be. L
As a man that was raised by a single mother! This line always brings a tear to my eyes. My sister and I never knew how much she struggled to raise us. We had a wonderful childhood thanks to her. I am 58 years old and no where understood how hard it was till I had a family of my own. I love my mom so very much! And yeah, her name just happens to be Barbara too!
This comment brings a tear to my eye 🥹 thank you for writing it so I can see that it’s all worth it in the long run. I’m a single mum of 3 beautiful young kids …amazing kids 🥹…and am raising them without a support system. Their father ran off to live his own life and my family kind of became tired of me, and slowly stopped returning my calls as I suffered such severe depression after the divorce and it was “too much” in their words… as I’ve also been close to bedridden for 3 years with severe back pain that no doctor I’ve seen can figure out. I’m currently unable to work because of my health issues. Don’t receive child support -as their father refuses. I’m weeks behind in rent and I’ll never catch up. I need support from my parents more than ever! but they’ve discarded me until I sort myself out. I cry every day… not all day, but every day 😔 most days I get the feelings that I don’t want to be here anymore. I’m holding on for my little ones, my whole life is for them. And I’m hoping they will feel this kind of appreciation when they grow up, and not feel like I held them back. That’s my biggest fear 😔 this song and the words spoken just encapsulate where I’m at in my life right now… wondering what my purpose is, or if I have one at all. That’s just surviving, that’s not living. Argh I’m so sorry for the long response, it’s a hard night for me! I haven’t spoken about adult things for a few weeks so I’m taking the opportunity! 😂 Bless you… and bless your mother. Warmest wishes for your new year, I can only hope that my sons turn out to respect single mothers in the same way. X
That's beautiful as we dont always know how to live or to die, and illness is a frightening one as I'm terminally ill. I've been on a crying but mostly alone, so I don't become cynical or live without appreciating my mom and the rest of my family and friends, but sometimes you need to cry but being a man isn't about not crying or being told when your younger that there are rules to something that can be so sad and pathetic that you loose yourself in an empty sea of others who don't know or always want to know, but then it leaves you in a darker place if they can't have empathy or are just nasty to people that they walk all over them, as they haven't a clue what's going on with you or even care, but I thank God for living at a time where at least I hope, for the better if they can feel and I for 1 care about most everyone. It's the hate I want to escape from here on Earth and I pray to God that it won't be long and torturous due to a completely horrible man that I hope to God he doesn't win as the violence will be more horrific and all out civil war and everyone will be negatively against us and the world. But i hope that doesn't happen, but its more likely if that terrible man becomes the president and his cult would be all out violent and the divide of the US would be such a step back for all of us. God bless you all ❤
this. this was the scene that made me want to live again. i don't need to do incredible things in order to be worthy of being a human on this planet. just being alive makes us worthy. we don't need to prove anything. for anyone. just being here is enough. we are enough. for the first time in a very long time, i want to grow old and look back on my life, knowing that i made it. i experienced being a human. that i lived.
Everything about this scene is wonderful: the acting, the music, the writing, the montage, Barbie feeling all the mess and beauty of being human and still saying “yes”. I haven’t felt this much magic in a movie in a very long time.
This scene had me sobbing in the theater. Being a guy I can never fully relate to what being a woman is like, but I took the message of this movie to be similar to that of Soul. Trying to find your purpose in this world, only to find out that our purpose is to live and experience that world.
I was looking for a comment like this - this is how I understood it too! I felt like this scene was almost like God or “The Creator”speaking to a soul who is deciding whether to come to earth to experience life
I am a woman. And this scene and the scene with the beautiful lady Barbie complements made me sob uncontrollably. I've been raised by a father who made sure I was not in contact with my mom until I got around 20. And this movie made me realize or rather re discover what it is to be a woman. Not just a human in general. Specifically a woman. And not in a sense of all societal thibgs. But this deep deep feeling of being a woman, feelings and living and experiencing life as a woman. I can't explain it very well. Society put tags and roles on all of us. What a good mother, wife, girl should look like, to fit, to be stereotypical Barbie... An ideal. A doll, that fit specific role, has her script written. And I just felt what a treasure it is to simply be a woman. In all aspects that make us. What it is to be a little girl, what is the connection with mother, what is it to be a grandmother,, wife. Not in a sense of being perfect idea, but just rather be... As a woman, treasured and put on this planet just as perfect as we are... I really can't find words to express it.
Margot Robbie delivered an Oscar worthy performance throughout the movie to me. Very simple but so accurate in every single way. She BECAME Barbie. She managed to portray a somewhat naive yet substantial Barbie. By the way, have you noticed the way she was holding her hands/fingers like a doll the whole movie? She was also careful to try and move in a doll-like manner when she had the opportunity. Amazing actress.
@@rival121 I've been campaigning for Margot ever since Barbie was released but I saw Poor Things last week and Emma Stone definitely deserves the Oscar. Margot's performance was still fantastic tho.
@@iHeartsNostalgiaPit they snubbed my girl. Both my girls actually as Greta Gerwig was also snubbed. Isn't it crazy that Ryan Gosling was nominated and not Margot when the movie is all about patriarchy and men ruling our world? Ryan was really great but he delivered a -one dimensional- comedic performance as opposed to Margot's complex and nuanced portrayal of Barbie. I really don't get it.
The scene was just so emotional and then the music playing added such a powerful touch. And then the scene comes where she asks for her gynecologist and ice spice starts playing 😭
Fun fact - Real life Margot Robbie is featured in that beautiful montage of women & children, carrying her friends baby right before Barbie becomes human ❤
The first time I went to see Barbie I went with my preconceived notions of what the movie was about. Came away somewhat jaded. Spoke to a girlfriend about it, and the next day went back and saw it again. I left my incredulous man hat at home the second showing. I enjoyed the movie a lot more for what it was. The second time around this scene broke me. Had me wiping tears away. A few women sitting a few rows over saw me wiping my eyes. I didn’t care. I was just happy to have felt something from a place I wasn’t expecting. I hear they call it empathy. I don’t know if it’s possible for a movie to give that to you, but I sure felt it. It was a good movie.
it's so refreshing seeing comments from men like this! i also had the same experience. my mom was somewhat surprised because as a child i never even owned a doll, let alone a barbie. i was very scared about what barbie was going to be because it could have gone so wrong, yet it went so right. i have watched it twice but it is definitely one of my favourites. it's just so comforting, so well-done, so amazing. i will never be able to explain how good it makes me feel
@@PlusInHollywood is good for putting out movies aimed at a targeted demographic. There's something for everybody, just not always in the same movie. I walked into the theater thinking, "well, let's see what quasi-neofeminist messaging the boys in the boardroom thinks the target audience wants to hear. The, what can we do to pretend that we get it - message?" Let's face it, most studio boardrooms still look like the one in the Barbie movie. Ya know? So that was my mindset as I sat through the first showing. I could see there was maybe more there, but I just didn't know if I could trust the studio with the message. Mattel, Warner Bros. That's a lot of greedy hands ready to role the dice to see if they can get paid off of a tried and true cash cow, Barbie. I didn't want to let the Barbie movie sink in because I was ambivalent about the source of the material. So after the movie I consulted with a source whom I could trust, a woman dear to me. She had saw it with her daughter a few weeks earlier. She shared some things with me off the bat that made me think. So I decided to go back and see it again. Towards the end of the movie I was recalling some of the things she'd shared with me in that conversation about her journey as a woman, and her daughter's, and I thought about my daughter, and my mother, and my sisters, and other women I've known over a lifetime. I may not have been able to explore every emotional nuance in that moment, but in that moment I got something, and it made me feel a mixture of emotions. Pride, reverence, grief, encouragement, joy. If something makes you more instead of less empathetic, that counts as progress. To be honest, I can't hear that Billy Eilish song "What Was I Made For?" without revisiting that moment in a darkened theater, when a man learned to empathize just a little bit more, while he contemplated on the inner strength, and love women have to muster every day, just to enjoy the dignity that we men take for granted. I think the old adage goes that you don't know how strong you are until being strong is all you can be? I walked away from the second showing with a little more respect. It made me laugh. It made me cry. Yeah, it only took two showings, but I was entertained.
@@brianbeans2190thank you so much for putting these thoughts into words. i wish everyone could give this movie a chance as you have, it really sounds like you truly understood what your female friend was speaking of.
I’m a 40 year old man and this scene hurt my heart. Made me think of my mother and what she endured raising me and my brothers, but also the memories and life that she gave us.
This scene really hit me deep, not being someone who’s played with Barbie or a women but a human struggling with all the feels and troubles that are involved in our human experience. Honestly loved this part so much and have watched it so many times and it still gets me.
i was so excited for this movie but it felt like i was watching austin powers with a very forced "this is the part you cry now" scene at the end.... sooo disappointed
@@molotochnik.imaybe you haven't felt scared or unsure about your future, what you're going to do, or what you are intended to do (in other words, what you were made for), but i have, and that's why this scene is so touching to me. it just felt like a warm hug from greta gerwig telling me "hey, it's okay to not know everything and to feel ugly and sad, we all feel like that". maybe it's also because i see it as a tribute to motherhood and mothers, and i realised how little i used to tell my mom i loved her (now i do it way more), so yeah. i do get why you might not see it emotionally, i went twice with friends and i was the only one crying both times!
i wish men could understand how much barbie meant to us as women. watching this scene felt like a stab in the heart but it also made me grateful to be alive and be a woman
as a guy, i agree 100%. i’m sad that a lot of men who have seen the movie have disregarded the messages in the film; the big example i can think of is the golden globes host making those awful “jokes” towards the barbie movie. the film was truly a beautiful experience as a human, but i can only imagine how much more impactful it all was as a woman. regardless, i love the film so much
This scene shows me what humanity is. It could be so easy for all of us when we work together. In love and friendship I hope sometime in the future we will get there 😢😊
everyone talks about the “we mothers stand still…” line, which is so beautiful, but the line that really stuck with me was “being a human can be pretty uncomfortable… humans make things up like patriarchy and barbie just to deal with how uncomfortable it is.” i can’t particularly explain why, but that line made me bawl. being alive is both an incredible and overwhelming experience. greta gerwig’s ability to deliver such a real and authentic scene displaying what it means to be human is beautiful, and she is immensely talented.
Funny I actually missed that part...I'm a filmmaker and an editor, I was focused on her breathing and didn't hear the heartbeat. Thanks for the tip, I'll go back to it now.
People love Gosling in this and he is definitely but god, I felt so connected to Barbie and so struck by Margot's emotional, human performance. It's so entrancing and beautiful to watch. Adore her performance. Rhea Pearlman too
I love how buddhist the topic life is treated here. "Humans make things up like patriarchy or Barbie just do deal with how uncomfortable it is." Really all the world's problems are rooted in this one sentence.
I was a week away from putting my mom's ashes in the ground when I saw this movie.When Ruth says that line about mom's and the montage starts I was sobbing. Mom sewed all my Barbie clothes and sewed me outfits that turned me into the fashionista I am today . Thankyou Greta for the most meaningful scene between a mother and daughter ever. It had been over 20 years since I had gone to a movie. Something made me go to this one. Can't help but think my mom brought me there❤
the movie doesn’t take itself seriously most of the time and that’s what makes this emotional scene so powerful, i saw this with my mom and honestly it made me cry, this movie is more about daughters and mothers than it is about men and women
In Remembrance to... Ruth Handler the American businesswoman and inventor. She is best known for inventing the Barbie doll in 1959, and being the first president of toy manufacturer Mattel from 1945 until 1975. (Born: November 4, 1916 - Died: April 27, 2002) 💗 Elliot Handler the American inventor, businessman, and co-founder of Mattel. With his wife, Ruth Handler, he developed some of the biggest-selling toys in American history, including Barbie, Chatty Cathy, Creepy Crawlers, and Hot Wheels. (Born: April 9, 1916 - Died: July 21, 2011) 💙
This last part got me. The part where Barbie says she doesn't have to even want or ask to become human just made me cry. And when they showed scenes of little kids made me break down in tears. Also when Ruth vanished in the last part made my heart crack. This movie is a blessing. ❤️❤ 10/10 recommend
This scene made me a better person. I didn’t know a movie could change me for life. It did it in a way I didn’t expect or know. Despite how uncomfortable or complex it is to be human, she chose to be human. This was so powerful to me. Knowing someone CHOSE what I try to escape sometimes made me realize what a blessing it is to live the human experience.
Ever since I saw “Soul”, I have been trying even harder, to appreciate every little thing in life. Even the most mundane, such as breathing. And when I saw this scene, I teared up.
People do not talk about Soul enough and it touched me deeply. As someone who is still looking for their "spark" it was like a shot to the chest. So good
This scene may be one of the most beautiful I have ever seen. It reminds me of my love for my daughters and my hopes and wishes for them. It also reminds me of the complexity, sadness, and beauty that comes with being human. Just spectacular.
I didn’t really realize that RUTH passed 21 years prior….this made this scene hit so much harder and made me tear up so much in the theatre. ❤️ Barbie easily is such a cinematic masterpiece. Full of comedy, fun, bright energy and heart.
Both of Barbie’s scenes with Ruth are among my favorite moments. Their first meeting is so brief but is also incredibly powerful - Why? Because Ruth is the very FIRST human Barbie encounters in the real world that shows her warmth and kindness. Also, if you rewatch the scene just look at the sheer emotion on Barbie’s face when Ruth simply says ‘You’re welcome Barbie’ In that moment Barbie feels seen for the very first time. But also, she’s shocked that Ruth knows her name, as Barbie hadn’t even told her. It’s so beautiful. Just like this wonderful scene 🙌
I'm a grown ass man, and I saw this movie after Oppenheimer (just for the joke / hype of it), and I wasn't expecting it. As a guy, you really feel empathetic with Ken and roll your eyes at the feminism message early on. But *then* it hits you right in the head towards the head and lets you forget all of that to make the real message clear: it's not about the metaphorical and literal boxes of either being male or female: it's about being human. It made me think of my mom and my grandparents and I bawled my eyes out. That never happens to me.
@@187420666es You're attempt at having an argument under the impression that i'm interested in thinking what a complete stranger has to say about my own subjective opinion is mildly amusing.
Y’all need to calm down. All the man said was that he enjoyed the movie and felt more connected to women and what it means to be human. You’re assuming a lot about his character. lol.
I know this is a mother daughter movie mostly. But it came out a week after my dad passed away. The last few years with him were really hard. And when this scene came on it was so hard to watch but it felt like my dad was talking to me. And it was so warm and loving. When she said "close you eyes, take my hand and feel." It fel like my dad wrapped me up in his arms and all the memories of him everything that made him my dad came flooding back and i was sobbing hard in the middle of the theater next to strangers. I love this movie, i love this song it makes me thing of how hard my dad loved me and my siblings and how much he fought his depression and self hate to be part of our lives and i am so proud of him. And im proud to have had him as my dad
This scene evoked the same kind of emotions i felt when watching Everything Everywhere all at once, which needless to say, meant that i was absolutely sobbing my face off. Such an emotional gut punch.
I feel like they're very similar movies. They're both silly, surreal comedies, which makes it all the more powerful when they unexpectedly take you into a deeply emotional appreciation of the human condition.
The part that mostly got me was 2:19 I’ve always had trouble accepting that I’m allowed to be human. I grew up thinking I was nothing but a toy, something to be used and thrown away, I was a trafficking survivor So that line alone always makes me cry without fail. The first time I watched this in theaters, I came out with a different perspective. This movie means the entire world to me. It’s taught me that no matter what, I’m allowed to be human. I can embrace my femininity without shame. I loved Barbie so much… this movie is definitely one everyone should watch.
I like how this Barbie isn't like all the other Barbies in the franchise. They acknowledged Ken's feelings for them and actually likes them. But this Barbie and Ken are amazing! While Ken does like Barbie, she doesn't like him back! And he actually sees that he can be someone without her. "Just Barbie and Just Ken". Oh! One of the best lines of the movie. And how she wanted to become human.
I haven't seen this movie yet and I'm _still_ bawling like a baby with this scene. I wonder how it will hit when I watch it fully..... Being human is the greatest gift. To feel love, joy, pain, sadness, emptiness, a cup overflowing.... It is all just so~ miraculous ❤
As a guy, this was my favourite scene besides the goofy ahh Ken War. I could describe this scene as “A comforting hug with warm hot chocolate to all the women out there.” It never mentioned anything about hating men, atleast from my POV. It was more of what I mentioned in the “” letting women know that their struggles are valid and they are beautiful in their own ways.
I don't know how, but I completely missed this song's existence until seeing this in theaters - and I was so grateful. Not knowing at all what the next lyric was going to be line by line, it hit like a ton of bricks.
This brings me to absolute tears cause when I watched this it didn’t make sense but now watching it carefully and the music it reminds me of how much my mother went through when my father passed away, leaving her to raise me alone, and I didn’t know how much pain she was in till I saw this scene, she gave up her dreams and sacrificed just for me to have a good life, and here I am 21 years old and now watching this I am feeling all the pain my mother was feeling but she kept it hidden for so many years. I love you momma I now know what you are feeling. Thank you for raising me
This scene was so well done, from the dialogue to the cinematography, it was perfection. One of my favorite parts is how the camera closes up on different parts of Barbie’s body when she tells her to feel, you’re not just watching it but you’re feeling it too. I cried so much at this scene, she knew what being human meant and decided to do it anyway. I personally think this scene could be applied to all of us, how we choose these moments too, whether to feel everything or pretend to be perfect. And having Margot Robbie as Barbie, knowing that this woman has gone through her own struggles of beauty standards, makes the film that much more meaningful to me.
One of my best friends was a movie fanatic, had his own website for his movie reviews. He passed away in 2021 due to a brain aneurysm, but I can’t watch this movie without crying and thinking how he would’ve loved it and cried too
The older I get, I usually get emotional a bit more, while watching movies and Barbie isn't the exception. I remember crying quite a lot because of this scene in particular and beyond how comic this movie is, it's so meaningful regarding what we want to be. So, thank you Ryan and Margot for making us get emotional 😢
I felt really disconnected from myself and my humanity for a really long time. This scene made me feel like my humanity was restored and I could finally feel again.
This scene is so heartfelt! There was a period where my mom and I were barely talking. I was in university, I had a job near our house which tended to be 12 hour shifts and would end at midnight but I wouldn't come home because of how often we fought. I was angry at her for so much stuff that my pain overshadowed any grace I might have wanted to give her. When I finally got tired of being angry and talked to her about our issues, I really saw her for the person she was. My mom is a person with a lot of flaws, some of which I've suffered for, but she's trying. When we talked about what her experiences, her fears, and her goals were, I saw her for so much more than just my mother and it left me speechless. This scene makes me think of her.
I have a rough time sitting still and watching movies but this is one of those rare times where I actually was able to watch this in its entirety. My mom wanted to watch this on her bday and it’s an amazing movie! Margot Robbie NAILED the role as Barbie and they couldn’t have picked anyone better. This scene was absolutely beautiful 😭
This scene has to be one of the most impactful in movie history, I cried so hard when I watched it and I cry everytime I see it. It really made me reflect on my relationship with my mother and my childhood more than anything ever has
I cried so hard, I felt so lost when I watched it in theaters. Thats the day inlearned that i got my dream job. After all the hardships I faced, all the sadness and fear, I finally figured out what I i was made for... I was made to be happy.
For me, this scene tells you that you and your experiences in life alone can mold you to who you are. Nobody can dictate you to be you. It also shows us that we should appreciate life as humans, when we embrace our emotions, imperfections, blessings, and our true selves so that we can all walk together united no matter what obstacles life has to offer.
Right before I watched the movie I was laughing at the fact everyone was crying I was thinking it’s a movie about Barbie why are people crying I finally watched it and saw why people cried and the story line of the movie is so perfectly set it’s incredible.The fact that is described how men basically rule society and how women are just on the side lines, especially this part.I love this movie and I love the actor.Definitely recommend.
I sob so hard when I watch this clip. every time she says “we mothers stand so still so pure daughters can look back to see how far they’ve come” I feel a pain in my chest for my mom who gave up everything for me. I love this movie.
i just met my great grandmother for the first and probably last time today. she has always wanted to meet me but hasnt gotten the chance to until now on her deathbed. she was so beautiful and i just wish that i had the opportunity to see her sooner when she was able to speak clearly and wasnt hooked to machines. so rewatching this scene now hit very hard, especially knowing that these amazing people helped create me.
I’m a guy, but this scene really made me emotional and nostalgic in a way. While I never owned a Barbie doll nor got into it, this scene made me reminisce of my own childhood, back when things were simpler playing with the toys and everything. In a way, Barbie was as also a part of my childhood between the commercials, the movies that were on Tv, the funny references of it, it makes me feel sentimental about it all.
the first time i watched this in theatres was the day it came out with friends, but when it came to this scene i couldn’t stop crying. i had been so scared of what my future was going to be, not knowing what i was made for. watching this with this song singing exactly how i felt at the time just broke me, i hadn’t found anything close to how i felt be put into words before. it might sound ridiculous to some, but i feel that i came out of that theatre much more sure of myself. it was very healing to hear what i felt out loud, and i just knew everything would be okay.
I sobbed when I watched it, Barbie was a huge part of my childhood, my love for creating characters, drawing and being myself came from playing with the dolls, it felt like getting in touch with my inner child again❤
I dont understand the hate to this movie . It had many story lines. Yes it discussed the difficulty of being a women in society, expectations of us , the sturggle of being perfect in a way for everyone to like us and get approval . But also discussed men, not just how he got a taste of patriachy and pushed that over women , but also how ken , like maby men, feel they need a women . Ken felt he needed barbie , to be whole. He felt like nothing without her bc in barbie women " had power". So once he got taste of human world he went to inforce that bc men ruled, he didnt feel ignored , belittled . He felt empowered as a man. But he and all kens stull faught bc some men got the women, still making those who didnt fe3l smaller than. Likewise , at the end , they felt tired from the power, and still empty bc they felt they needed a women . Women or power. But neither made them happy . Men need to be tall wothout needing a women. Men can have all the powe and still feel insufficient somehow. One gender , leading , is not a solution. Equality is. Both genders suffer from the controls of society standards as a man . Man must be talented, handsome, have money , power. Need a female by their side. Be better than other men . Women, pretty not to pretty , work but dont over do it , dont point outv problems . Etc; . And overall being human is a story line. Feeling sad, happy, grateful, smiling, crying , growing old , death . How we cope with uncomfortability in this society and world . Yes , its a womens movie. BUT it adresses mens problems aswell and being human overall. Its not just a true story, action, romance , etc;. Its truth everyone needs to realize.
I don't know if this sounds insensitive, but as a man, this movie inspired me. Obviously I'll never be able to relate directly to the struggles, hardships, and hell even some of the joys of being a woman, but Barbie at the very least could help me understand them in a way that wasn't possible before. I never had a mom and I never had a dad for awful reasons I won't get into, but I had a grandma. She was my rock and the reason I made it to where I am now is because of her. She was a strong willed, ruff and tumbled farmer girl, who never asked for anything for as long as I knew her. Despite that, she gave nothing but the world to me even when I didn't deserve it. She was such a beautiful and powerful woman and from a very young age I knew there were countless others like her. I don't know what others felt after Barbie, but I know I felt gratitude for what all women do and put up with. Thanks ladies across the world for all you do, It's a hard, difficult, and sometimes ugly world we live in and things won't get easier, but they can always get better and Barbie teaches us that

Got me teary eyed right now😭😭
That line got me too 😢
Meh
@@imissdinklebot9741 Did your mother abandon you?
Same❤❤❤❤❤❤
It’s so odd that there was so much controversy about this movie. In my eyes it had very little to do with men and women, and had more to do with being human, and what that means.
you're right!
absolutely. I left the theater and looked at every human (in the grocery store) with love that day.
Me too!!!❤❤
Because Men are not seen, or treated, as human.
@@jackdeniston59in what sense?
I cried harder during this scene than I ever did in any movie in my 50 years. Wasn't expecting real home movie footage popping in after all the hot pink surreal Barbie imagery. All my memories of my life with my mom, her life with her mom, and so on flooded through. And Barbie came to life by being empathic and taking it all in. So good.
I cried here too. That was me standing out in that field at the end. :-)
You really need to watch more films.

I did cry to this but not like the others

Me too. It killed me.
watched this w my mother when it premiered on my bday and i was BAWLING then she held my hand WHICH MADE THE TEARS WORSE lol
this SCENE JUIKLKED NE MENTALLY i am crying again from watching in jeesus fucking christ mate
@@tasha1751reading this made my heart melt even more and now i crying even more!!!
Aber sicher doch 🤣
Im a grown man, but this scene made me feel somewhat emotional, and almost made me cry. Very deep, and touching statement made here. It's not about being a man or a woman, but being human, and nobody can tell you how to be human, you get to define who you are as a person.
Amazing movie.
Yes...my husband said the same thing!❤
You are a boy
Im a grown man and I was hiding my face during this scene because of how much it hurt, and had to take a couple hours after the movie to let that feeling out. Now I just listen to this song when I want my numb body to remember what it feels like to be human.
Same...at the theatre I was the only guy by myself, so my eyes got watery...but I held it in as much as I could. Then, on the way home I cried silently in my car, and then when I got home I cried some more. When she said the words "being a human can be pretty uncomfortable"..."humans make things up like patriarchy and Barbie just to deal with how uncomfortable it is"...that 'stung' quite a bit, as it made me realize why 'we' do what we do or why 'we' are how we are sometimes. It brought me back to myself too. The movie was incredible, I had to purchase the Blu-Ray.
@@llllPsycho you deserve love and acceptance just as anyone else does. I wish the best for you. Cry it out, brother
Everyone loves ken, but barbie had one of the best arcs i've seen in any satire. It was treated very seriously despite being mostly a comedy. She truly wanted more than just being stereotypical. She achieved her goal but truly suffered for it. But that's the point: she actually felt something, cause she is no longer an idea 💗
In fanfiction speak we call it "crack treated seriously".
I didn’t love Ken at all 😒 He was so annoying, desperate, whiny and needy . The Ken tries to take over Barbie Land part was awful to me . I didn’t enjoy it at all . And even though I didn’t like Ken I still didn’t like how mean Barbie treated him throughout the movie either . Maybe it’s the casting. I know a lot of people love Ryan Gosling but I have never been a fan of his 🤷♀️ There were definitely parts of this movie I loved and definitely parts I did not !
@@missyrose2154Ryan was funny though
wonderfully stated
@missyrose2154. I took Ryan gosling's "annoyingness" to be the major point. Many Women try sooooooo hard to be pleasing to people. They lose themselves sometimes, becoming clingy and whiny. The people they're trying to please then get annoyed by it, and frankly bored then disgusted with this woman for not having her "own identity". So the woman goes to the opposite extreme, deciding that men are the problem and they need to be squashed. Thus, taking down the patriarchy. And then her line "humans make up things like the patriarchy to deal with how uncomfortable..." it is to be human. Men and women must love and respect ourselves to see that pleasing someone else is not our purpose...
The girl who puts on blush and winks in the mirror is a bride getting ready on her wedding day. All those beautiful clips showing what it's like to be human came from the cast & crew
I kind of wish there were a few more sad images in there to show that when you embrace being human, you embrace ALL of the experience.
No-one really videoes or pictures those moments, just the parts that we never want to forget
@@jillcncthinking about the happy days that you'll never get back to is a lot of the sad part

@@sose6255 just say you hate women and move on, you probably thought this was some anti-men shit when its literally poking at the patriarchy and making fun of it 💀kens storyline is huge in this movie and it's the exact opposite of what all the negative reviews make it out to be. L
@@savspicious I just didnt liked the movie lol
As a man that was raised by a single mother! This line always brings a tear to my eyes. My sister and I never knew how much she struggled to raise us. We had a wonderful childhood thanks to her. I am 58 years old and no where understood how hard it was till I had a family of my own. I love my mom so very much! And yeah, her name just happens to be Barbara too!
This comment brings a tear to my eye 🥹 thank you for writing it so I can see that it’s all worth it in the long run. I’m a single mum of 3 beautiful young kids …amazing kids 🥹…and am raising them without a support system. Their father ran off to live his own life and my family kind of became tired of me, and slowly stopped returning my calls as I suffered such severe depression after the divorce and it was “too much” in their words… as I’ve also been close to bedridden for 3 years with severe back pain that no doctor I’ve seen can figure out. I’m currently unable to work because of my health issues. Don’t receive child support -as their father refuses. I’m weeks behind in rent and I’ll never catch up. I need support from my parents more than ever! but they’ve discarded me until I sort myself out. I cry every day… not all day, but every day 😔 most days I get the feelings that I don’t want to be here anymore. I’m holding on for my little ones, my whole life is for them. And I’m hoping they will feel this kind of appreciation when they grow up, and not feel like I held them back. That’s my biggest fear 😔 this song and the words spoken just encapsulate where I’m at in my life right now… wondering what my purpose is, or if I have one at all. That’s just surviving, that’s not living.
Argh I’m so sorry for the long response, it’s a hard night for me! I haven’t spoken about adult things for a few weeks so I’m taking the opportunity! 😂
Bless you… and bless your mother. Warmest wishes for your new year, I can only hope that my sons turn out to respect single mothers in the same way. X
❤ very touching scene
That's beautiful as we dont always know how to live or to die, and illness is a frightening one as I'm terminally ill. I've been on a crying but mostly alone, so I don't become cynical or live without appreciating my mom and the rest of my family and friends, but sometimes you need to cry but being a man isn't about not crying or being told when your younger that there are rules to something that can be so sad and pathetic that you loose yourself in an empty sea of others who don't know or always want to know, but then it leaves you in a darker place if they can't have empathy or are just nasty to people that they walk all over them, as they haven't a clue what's going on with you or even care, but I thank God for living at a time where at least I hope, for the better if they can feel and I for 1 care about most everyone. It's the hate I want to escape from here on Earth and I pray to God that it won't be long and torturous due to a completely horrible man that I hope to God he doesn't win as the violence will be more horrific and all out civil war and everyone will be negatively against us and the world. But i hope that doesn't happen, but its more likely if that terrible man becomes the president and his cult would be all out violent and the divide of the US would be such a step back for all of us. God bless you all ❤
this. this was the scene that made me want to live again. i don't need to do incredible things in order to be worthy of being a human on this planet. just being alive makes us worthy. we don't need to prove anything. for anyone. just being here is enough. we are enough. for the first time in a very long time, i want to grow old and look back on my life, knowing that i made it. i experienced being a human. that i lived.
I’m so glad you’re alive!! ❤️ you are worthy!!
I stopped crying then I read your comment and started crying again.
we are kenough
Oh! Your comment made me so emotional! ❤ I cannot believe I’m actually crying! You’ve written it so beautifully
Everything about this scene is wonderful: the acting, the music, the writing, the montage, Barbie feeling all the mess and beauty of being human and still saying “yes”. I haven’t felt this much magic in a movie in a very long time.
The choice of colour palette too, so subdued with elegant and subtle inflections of colour is just wonderful
This scene had me sobbing in the theater. Being a guy I can never fully relate to what being a woman is like, but I took the message of this movie to be similar to that of Soul. Trying to find your purpose in this world, only to find out that our purpose is to live and experience that world.
I was looking for a comment like this - this is how I understood it too! I felt like this scene was almost like God or “The Creator”speaking to a soul who is deciding whether to come to earth to experience life
Same here. A grown man in the theater crying like a baby. Going into the movie I was expecting nothing but man did the movie have a lot of heart
I am a woman. And this scene and the scene with the beautiful lady Barbie complements made me sob uncontrollably. I've been raised by a father who made sure I was not in contact with my mom until I got around 20. And this movie made me realize or rather re discover what it is to be a woman. Not just a human in general. Specifically a woman. And not in a sense of all societal thibgs. But this deep deep feeling of being a woman, feelings and living and experiencing life as a woman. I can't explain it very well. Society put tags and roles on all of us. What a good mother, wife, girl should look like, to fit, to be stereotypical Barbie... An ideal. A doll, that fit specific role, has her script written. And I just felt what a treasure it is to simply be a woman. In all aspects that make us. What it is to be a little girl, what is the connection with mother, what is it to be a grandmother,, wife. Not in a sense of being perfect idea, but just rather be... As a woman, treasured and put on this planet just as perfect as we are... I really can't find words to express it.
I didn't expect the Barbie movie to be and feel so human.
Neither did I. But I was open to the artistery and the two leads alone
Margot Robbie delivered an Oscar worthy performance throughout the movie to me.
Very simple but so accurate in every single way. She BECAME Barbie. She managed to portray a somewhat naive yet substantial Barbie.
By the way, have you noticed the way she was holding her hands/fingers like a doll the whole movie? She was also careful to try and move in a doll-like manner when she had the opportunity.
Amazing actress.
I know she's been nominated for an Oscar more than once in the past, but she BETTER win for this film. She really earned it with this one.
@@aharddaysnightmarelooks like Emma Stone will win it. SORRY
Yeah too bad the academy didn't feel the same way
@@rival121 I've been campaigning for Margot ever since Barbie was released but I saw Poor Things last week and Emma Stone definitely deserves the Oscar. Margot's performance was still fantastic tho.
@@iHeartsNostalgiaPit they snubbed my girl. Both my girls actually as Greta Gerwig was also snubbed.
Isn't it crazy that Ryan Gosling was nominated and not Margot when the movie is all about patriarchy and men ruling our world? Ryan was really great but he delivered a -one dimensional- comedic performance as opposed to Margot's complex and nuanced portrayal of Barbie. I really don't get it.
The scene was just so emotional and then the music playing added such a powerful touch. And then the scene comes where she asks for her gynecologist and ice spice starts playing 😭
Real emotional roller coaster 🤒
That movie was surreal and the final My tears twearking with ice pice was si odd j😅
They really marveld a serious moment didnt they?
Lmao that killed me 😂😂
Fun fact - Real life Margot Robbie is featured in that beautiful montage of women & children, carrying her friends baby right before Barbie becomes human ❤
ahhh that’s so coooolll ❤❤
I dont see it
@@joshua27643:27
@@joshua2764me neither.
I cried so hard during this scene. Specially the flashback scenes of the little girls, because it reminded me of my childhood 😭
Same I started bawling 😭
The first time I went to see Barbie I went with my preconceived notions of what the movie was about. Came away somewhat jaded. Spoke to a girlfriend about it, and the next day went back and saw it again. I left my incredulous man hat at home the second showing. I enjoyed the movie a lot more for what it was.
The second time around this scene broke me. Had me wiping tears away. A few women sitting a few rows over saw me wiping my eyes. I didn’t care. I was just happy to have felt something from a place I wasn’t expecting. I hear they call it empathy.
I don’t know if it’s possible for a movie to give that to you, but I sure felt it. It was a good movie.
it's so refreshing seeing comments from men like this! i also had the same experience. my mom was somewhat surprised because as a child i never even owned a doll, let alone a barbie. i was very scared about what barbie was going to be because it could have gone so wrong, yet it went so right.
i have watched it twice but it is definitely one of my favourites. it's just so comforting, so well-done, so amazing. i will never be able to explain how good it makes me feel
@@PlusInHollywood is good for putting out movies aimed at a targeted demographic. There's something for everybody, just not always in the same movie. I walked into the theater thinking, "well, let's see what quasi-neofeminist messaging the boys in the boardroom thinks the target audience wants to hear. The, what can we do to pretend that we get it - message?" Let's face it, most studio boardrooms still look like the one in the Barbie movie. Ya know?
So that was my mindset as I sat through the first showing. I could see there was maybe more there, but I just didn't know if I could trust the studio with the message. Mattel, Warner Bros. That's a lot of greedy hands ready to role the dice to see if they can get paid off of a tried and true cash cow, Barbie. I didn't want to let the Barbie movie sink in because I was ambivalent about the source of the material. So after the movie I consulted with a source whom I could trust, a woman dear to me. She had saw it with her daughter a few weeks earlier. She shared some things with me off the bat that made me think. So I decided to go back and see it again.
Towards the end of the movie I was recalling some of the things she'd shared with me in that conversation about her journey as a woman, and her daughter's, and I thought about my daughter, and my mother, and my sisters, and other women I've known over a lifetime. I may not have been able to explore every emotional nuance in that moment, but in that moment I got something, and it made me feel a mixture of emotions. Pride, reverence, grief, encouragement, joy. If something makes you more instead of less empathetic, that counts as progress. To be honest, I can't hear that Billy Eilish song "What Was I Made For?" without revisiting that moment in a darkened theater, when a man learned to empathize just a little bit more, while he contemplated on the inner strength, and love women have to muster every day, just to enjoy the dignity that we men take for granted.
I think the old adage goes that you don't know how strong you are until being strong is all you can be? I walked away from the second showing with a little more respect. It made me laugh. It made me cry. Yeah, it only took two showings, but I was entertained.
@@PlusIn Thanks for asking.
@@brianbeans2190thank you so much for putting these thoughts into words. i wish everyone could give this movie a chance as you have, it really sounds like you truly understood what your female friend was speaking of.

I’m a 40 year old man and this scene hurt my heart. Made me think of my mother and what she endured raising me and my brothers, but also the memories and life that she gave us.
This scene really hit me deep, not being someone who’s played with Barbie or a women but a human struggling with all the feels and troubles that are involved in our human experience. Honestly loved this part so much and have watched it so many times and it still gets me.
I saw this movie twice in theaters, and I can definitely say that each time this scene came on there was hardly a dry eye in the audience.
ME TOO! There were so many sniffles lol it sounded like a giant group therapy session…well kinda was.
i was so excited for this movie but it felt like i was watching austin powers with a very forced "this is the part you cry now" scene at the end.... sooo disappointed
@@molotochnik.imaybe you haven't felt scared or unsure about your future, what you're going to do, or what you are intended to do (in other words, what you were made for), but i have, and that's why this scene is so touching to me. it just felt like a warm hug from greta gerwig telling me "hey, it's okay to not know everything and to feel ugly and sad, we all feel like that". maybe it's also because i see it as a tribute to motherhood and mothers, and i realised how little i used to tell my mom i loved her (now i do it way more), so yeah. i do get why you might not see it emotionally, i went twice with friends and i was the only one crying both times!
I definitely wanted to cry but I forcibly held my tears in. I wish I had allowed myself to let go
i wish men could understand how much barbie meant to us as women. watching this scene felt like a stab in the heart but it also made me grateful to be alive and be a woman
as a guy, i agree 100%. i’m sad that a lot of men who have seen the movie have disregarded the messages in the film; the big example i can think of is the golden globes host making those awful “jokes” towards the barbie movie. the film was truly a beautiful experience as a human, but i can only imagine how much more impactful it all was as a woman. regardless, i love the film so much
Stop speaking for all women. Many women I’ve seen didn’t find this movie meaningful.
@xxxmaysilssss690 and why would you spoke for those women you knew?
@@pseud0moth except I’m not “speaking” for them. I’m relaying a common opinion I’ve seen from many women (including myself).
This scene shows me what humanity is. It could be so easy for all of us when we work together. In love and friendship I hope sometime in the future we will get there 😢😊
Same. Community makes everything better. Not competition and being at each other's throats :(
Don’t we all
everyone talks about the “we mothers stand still…” line, which is so beautiful, but the line that really stuck with me was “being a human can be pretty uncomfortable… humans make things up like patriarchy and barbie just to deal with how uncomfortable it is.” i can’t particularly explain why, but that line made me bawl. being alive is both an incredible and overwhelming experience. greta gerwig’s ability to deliver such a real and authentic scene displaying what it means to be human is beautiful, and she is immensely talented.
I balled my eyes out when I heard Barbie’s first heartbeat.
Funny I actually missed that part...I'm a filmmaker and an editor, I was focused on her breathing and didn't hear the heartbeat. Thanks for the tip, I'll go back to it now.
God i cant believe i missed that. It just adds so much more 😭
i cant hear it billie is trying so hard to be quiet but still failed😒
People love Gosling in this and he is definitely but god, I felt so connected to Barbie and so struck by Margot's emotional, human performance. It's so entrancing and beautiful to watch. Adore her performance. Rhea Pearlman too
This. People keep overlooking how sincere and sweet Margot's Barbie is. 😢
Me too Margot is amazing ❤
I love how buddhist the topic life is treated here.
"Humans make things up like patriarchy or Barbie just do deal with how uncomfortable it is."
Really all the world's problems are rooted in this one sentence.
Yes. It's profound. The ending was truly profound psychologically...
i don’t think i’ve ever been so impacted by a scene in a movie. this is why film
is so important.
Saw the movie twice. This still draws tears. What a beautiful scene.
I was a week away from putting my mom's ashes in the ground when I saw this movie.When Ruth says that line about mom's and the montage starts I was sobbing. Mom sewed all my Barbie clothes and sewed me outfits that turned me into the fashionista I am today . Thankyou Greta for the most meaningful scene between a mother and daughter ever. It had been over 20 years since I had gone to a movie. Something made me go to this one. Can't help but think my mom brought me there❤
the movie doesn’t take itself seriously most of the time and that’s what makes this emotional scene so powerful, i saw this with my mom and honestly it made me cry, this movie is more about daughters and mothers than it is about men and women

I thought Barbie had an older origin, something about it being a joke toy for executives, originating in Germany.
This last part got me. The part where Barbie says she doesn't have to even want or ask to become human just made me cry. And when they showed scenes of little kids made me break down in tears. Also when Ruth vanished in the last part made my heart crack. This movie is a blessing. ❤️❤ 10/10 recommend
I've seen the barbie movie like 4 times now and this part always makes me bawl my eyes out
This scene made me a better person. I didn’t know a movie could change me for life. It did it in a way I didn’t expect or know. Despite how uncomfortable or complex it is to be human, she chose to be human. This was so powerful to me. Knowing someone CHOSE what I try to escape sometimes made me realize what a blessing it is to live the human experience.
Ever since I saw “Soul”, I have been trying even harder, to appreciate every little thing in life.
Even the most mundane, such as breathing.
And when I saw this scene, I teared up.
People do not talk about Soul enough and it touched me deeply. As someone who is still looking for their "spark" it was like a shot to the chest. So good
This scene may be one of the most beautiful I have ever seen. It reminds me of my love for my daughters and my hopes and wishes for them. It also reminds me of the complexity, sadness, and beauty that comes with being human. Just spectacular.
I didn’t really realize that RUTH passed 21 years prior….this made this scene hit so much harder and made me tear up so much in the theatre. ❤️ Barbie easily is such a cinematic masterpiece. Full of comedy, fun, bright energy and heart.
Both of Barbie’s scenes with Ruth are among my favorite moments.
Their first meeting is so brief but is also incredibly powerful - Why? Because Ruth is the very FIRST human Barbie encounters in the real world that shows her warmth and kindness.
Also, if you rewatch the scene just look at the sheer emotion on Barbie’s face when Ruth simply says ‘You’re welcome Barbie’
In that moment Barbie feels seen for the very first time. But also, she’s shocked that Ruth knows her name, as Barbie hadn’t even told her.
It’s so beautiful. Just like this wonderful scene 🙌
I teared up in the theater as this scene played. It shook me to my core and brought out emotions I burried.
I'm a grown ass man, and I saw this movie after Oppenheimer (just for the joke / hype of it), and I wasn't expecting it. As a guy, you really feel empathetic with Ken and roll your eyes at the feminism message early on. But *then* it hits you right in the head towards the head and lets you forget all of that to make the real message clear: it's not about the metaphorical and literal boxes of either being male or female: it's about being human. It made me think of my mom and my grandparents and I bawled my eyes out. That never happens to me.
Oppenheimer was a boring movie bro, trying to compare this to Barbie is crazy 😂
@@187420666es You're attempt at having an argument under the impression that i'm interested in thinking what a complete stranger has to say about my own subjective opinion is mildly amusing.

@@Liv-if7tw What? Are you gonna flame them for realizing it too late? Better late than never. Calm down.
Y’all need to calm down. All the man said was that he enjoyed the movie and felt more connected to women and what it means to be human. You’re assuming a lot about his character. lol.
The visceral love, pain, and beauty evoked through the editing of the home videos coupled with Billie's song is so incredible. What a fantastic scene!
This movie made me feel girlhood, and to understand motherhood more than ever. I bawl every. Single. Time.
I know this is a mother daughter movie mostly. But it came out a week after my dad passed away. The last few years with him were really hard. And when this scene came on it was so hard to watch but it felt like my dad was talking to me. And it was so warm and loving. When she said "close you eyes, take my hand and feel." It fel like my dad wrapped me up in his arms and all the memories of him everything that made him my dad came flooding back and i was sobbing hard in the middle of the theater next to strangers. I love this movie, i love this song it makes me thing of how hard my dad loved me and my siblings and how much he fought his depression and self hate to be part of our lives and i am so proud of him. And im proud to have had him as my dad
This scene evoked the same kind of emotions i felt when watching Everything Everywhere all at once, which needless to say, meant that i was absolutely sobbing my face off. Such an emotional gut punch.
I feel like they're very similar movies. They're both silly, surreal comedies, which makes it all the more powerful when they unexpectedly take you into a deeply emotional appreciation of the human condition.
The part that mostly got me was 2:19
I’ve always had trouble accepting that I’m allowed to be human. I grew up thinking I was nothing but a toy, something to be used and thrown away, I was a trafficking survivor
So that line alone always makes me cry without fail. The first time I watched this in theaters, I came out with a different perspective.
This movie means the entire world to me. It’s taught me that no matter what, I’m allowed to be human. I can embrace my femininity without shame.
I loved Barbie so much… this movie is definitely one everyone should watch.
I like how this Barbie isn't like all the other Barbies in the franchise. They acknowledged Ken's feelings for them and actually likes them. But this Barbie and Ken are amazing! While Ken does like Barbie, she doesn't like him back! And he actually sees that he can be someone without her. "Just Barbie and Just Ken". Oh! One of the best lines of the movie. And how she wanted to become human.
My greatest take away from this scene was that, of all the things Barbie could be, she chose to be human ❤.
I haven't seen this movie yet and I'm _still_ bawling like a baby with this scene. I wonder how it will hit when I watch it fully.....
Being human is the greatest gift. To feel love, joy, pain, sadness, emptiness, a cup overflowing....
It is all just so~ miraculous ❤
RUTH LETTING GO OF BARBIES HAND I JUST CANT STOP CRYING😢
As a guy, this was my favourite scene besides the goofy ahh Ken War. I could describe this scene as “A comforting hug with warm hot chocolate to all the women out there.” It never mentioned anything about hating men, atleast from my POV. It was more of what I mentioned in the “” letting women know that their struggles are valid and they are beautiful in their own ways.
I can’t watch this scene without my eyes turning into Niagara Falls.
I don't know how, but I completely missed this song's existence until seeing this in theaters - and I was so grateful. Not knowing at all what the next lyric was going to be line by line, it hit like a ton of bricks.
right!
This brings me to absolute tears cause when I watched this it didn’t make sense but now watching it carefully and the music it reminds me of how much my mother went through when my father passed away, leaving her to raise me alone, and I didn’t know how much pain she was in till I saw this scene, she gave up her dreams and sacrificed just for me to have a good life, and here I am 21 years old and now watching this I am feeling all the pain my mother was feeling but she kept it hidden for so many years. I love you momma I now know what you are feeling. Thank you for raising me
watching this for the first time with my mom sitting right next time was an emotional experience i wasn’t expecting
This scene had me bawling in the cinema.
This hit way harder than it should have holy shit
Margot Robbie is the perfect Barbie. What a sincere performance from her.
One of the best scenes in film all year. Absolutely fucking well done.
One of the best and most emotional scenes of the film. The song perfectly captures the feels of the scene.
Barbie realizes me how beautiful life is..😢❤ I cried a lot to this scene so iconic yet so emotional 😢😢
This scene gives the meaning of what it means to be human 👁🧠🫀❄️🩵
This scene was so well done, from the dialogue to the cinematography, it was perfection. One of my favorite parts is how the camera closes up on different parts of Barbie’s body when she tells her to feel, you’re not just watching it but you’re feeling it too. I cried so much at this scene, she knew what being human meant and decided to do it anyway.
I personally think this scene could be applied to all of us, how we choose these moments too, whether to feel everything or pretend to be perfect.
And having Margot Robbie as Barbie, knowing that this woman has gone through her own struggles of beauty standards, makes the film that much more meaningful to me.
This is probably the best movie ending I’ve ever seen
This scene had me bawling my eyes out in the theater, thank you for uploading this.
One of my best friends was a movie fanatic, had his own website for his movie reviews. He passed away in 2021 due to a brain aneurysm, but I can’t watch this movie without crying and thinking how he would’ve loved it and cried too
This scene became even more beautiful after you find out the videos are home videos of the women in the staff/cast
They seemed personal! I had a feeling aw ❤
The scene hit me so hard I cried. It was totally unexpected, and I still cry thinking what she said about parents standing still... ❤❤❤
The older I get, I usually get emotional a bit more, while watching movies and Barbie isn't the exception. I remember crying quite a lot because of this scene in particular and beyond how comic this movie is, it's so meaningful regarding what we want to be. So, thank you Ryan and Margot for making us get emotional 😢
I felt really disconnected from myself and my humanity for a really long time. This scene made me feel like my humanity was restored and I could finally feel again.
This scene is so heartfelt! There was a period where my mom and I were barely talking. I was in university, I had a job near our house which tended to be 12 hour shifts and would end at midnight but I wouldn't come home because of how often we fought. I was angry at her for so much stuff that my pain overshadowed any grace I might have wanted to give her. When I finally got tired of being angry and talked to her about our issues, I really saw her for the person she was. My mom is a person with a lot of flaws, some of which I've suffered for, but she's trying. When we talked about what her experiences, her fears, and her goals were, I saw her for so much more than just my mother and it left me speechless. This scene makes me think of her.
I have a rough time sitting still and watching movies but this is one of those rare times where I actually was able to watch this in its entirety. My mom wanted to watch this on her bday and it’s an amazing movie! Margot Robbie NAILED the role as Barbie and they couldn’t have picked anyone better. This scene was absolutely beautiful 😭
I still can’t hold my tears for this celebration of life. Such a joyful cry.
This scene has to be one of the most impactful in movie history, I cried so hard when I watched it and I cry everytime I see it. It really made me reflect on my relationship with my mother and my childhood more than anything ever has
I cried so hard, I felt so lost when I watched it in theaters. Thats the day inlearned that i got my dream job.
After all the hardships I faced, all the sadness and fear, I finally figured out what I i was made for... I was made to be happy.
Congratulations! That’s so amazing, I hope you have a lot of happiness in your future, you deserve it ❤️
For me, this scene tells you that you and your experiences in life alone can mold you to who you are. Nobody can dictate you to be you. It also shows us that we should appreciate life as humans, when we embrace our emotions, imperfections, blessings, and our true selves so that we can all walk together united no matter what obstacles life has to offer.
This is my favorite scene in the whole movie, even more than the goofiness of the Kens’ playing guitar and dancing.
Humans have one ending.
Death 😅
My mommy and I held hands and cried together during this scene, it was so special and a memory I will hold onto forever ❤️
Saw this movie on Max today and this scene is so beautiful for sure. One of the best scenes ever in cinema in general 🥺❤️
Same 😭 took me sooo long to watch it but I’m so glad I finally did. I needed to watch it so bad and at THIS point in my life too
Right before I watched the movie I was laughing at the fact everyone was crying I was thinking it’s a movie about Barbie why are people crying I finally watched it and saw why people cried and the story line of the movie is so perfectly set it’s incredible.The fact that is described how men basically rule society and how women are just on the side lines, especially this part.I love this movie and I love the actor.Definitely recommend.
Barbie forever in our hearts!!💖🥰💪🏾.
I was literally holding back my tears while watching this in the cinema 😭
I don't usually cry watching movies but I couldn't hold back my tears on this scene. Love you MOM ❤
I sob so hard when I watch this clip. every time she says “we mothers stand so still so pure daughters can look back to see how far they’ve come” I feel a pain in my chest for my mom who gave up everything for me. I love this movie.
i just met my great grandmother for the first and probably last time today. she has always wanted to meet me but hasnt gotten the chance to until now on her deathbed. she was so beautiful and i just wish that i had the opportunity to see her sooner when she was able to speak clearly and wasnt hooked to machines. so rewatching this scene now hit very hard, especially knowing that these amazing people helped create me.
So sorry for your loss! I lost my Grandma from my dad’s side this past week. Last time I saw her was six months ago at a family reunion
Why is a movie about a doll so damn good?!
Why does this make me so emotional
i bawled my eyes out watching this in the theater today 😭😭😭
I’m a guy, but this scene really made me emotional and nostalgic in a way. While I never owned a Barbie doll nor got into it, this scene made me reminisce of my own childhood, back when things were simpler playing with the toys and everything. In a way, Barbie was as also a part of my childhood between the commercials, the movies that were on Tv, the funny references of it, it makes me feel sentimental about it all.
the first time i watched this in theatres was the day it came out with friends, but when it came to this scene i couldn’t stop crying. i had been so scared of what my future was going to be, not knowing what i was made for. watching this with this song singing exactly how i felt at the time just broke me, i hadn’t found anything close to how i felt be put into words before. it might sound ridiculous to some, but i feel that i came out of that theatre much more sure of myself. it was very healing to hear what i felt out loud, and i just knew everything would be okay.
Every time I see this scene I cry. My mom held my hand so hard when I first watched this movie
Defintely cried🥺🥺
I sobbed when I watched it, Barbie was a huge part of my childhood, my love for creating characters, drawing and being myself came from playing with the dolls, it felt like getting in touch with my inner child again❤
I dont understand the hate to this movie . It had many story lines. Yes it discussed the difficulty of being a women in society, expectations of us , the sturggle of being perfect in a way for everyone to like us and get approval . But also discussed men, not just how he got a taste of patriachy and pushed that over women , but also how ken , like maby men, feel they need a women . Ken felt he needed barbie , to be whole. He felt like nothing without her bc in barbie women " had power". So once he got taste of human world he went to inforce that bc men ruled, he didnt feel ignored , belittled . He felt empowered as a man. But he and all kens stull faught bc some men got the women, still making those who didnt fe3l smaller than. Likewise , at the end , they felt tired from the power, and still empty bc they felt they needed a women . Women or power. But neither made them happy . Men need to be tall wothout needing a women. Men can have all the powe and still feel insufficient somehow. One gender , leading , is not a solution. Equality is. Both genders suffer from the controls of society standards as a man . Man must be talented, handsome, have money , power. Need a female by their side. Be better than other men . Women, pretty not to pretty , work but dont over do it , dont point outv problems . Etc; . And overall being human is a story line. Feeling sad, happy, grateful, smiling, crying , growing old , death . How we cope with uncomfortability in this society and world . Yes , its a womens movie. BUT it adresses mens problems aswell and being human overall. Its not just a true story, action, romance , etc;. Its truth everyone needs to realize.
This always makes me cry listening to the song
I cried like a baby during this scene. My girlfriend took me to see it and from the opening scene to this i was captivated.
One of those comedy movies that just get deep out of nowhere.
Just like Adam Sandler’s Click (highly recommend)
I don't know if this sounds insensitive, but as a man, this movie inspired me. Obviously I'll never be able to relate directly to the struggles, hardships, and hell even some of the joys of being a woman, but Barbie at the very least could help me understand them in a way that wasn't possible before. I never had a mom and I never had a dad for awful reasons I won't get into, but I had a grandma. She was my rock and the reason I made it to where I am now is because of her. She was a strong willed, ruff and tumbled farmer girl, who never asked for anything for as long as I knew her. Despite that, she gave nothing but the world to me even when I didn't deserve it. She was such a beautiful and powerful woman and from a very young age I knew there were countless others like her. I don't know what others felt after Barbie, but I know I felt gratitude for what all women do and put up with. Thanks ladies across the world for all you do, It's a hard, difficult, and sometimes ugly world we live in and things won't get easier, but they can always get better and Barbie teaches us that
incredible, this movie is in one word incredible
