Nós não merecemos tudo isso

Anthony Lane – sempre a melhor leitura sobre cinema – naquelas passagens que tem que entrar numa história da crítica cinematográfica (pelo Ben Casnocha, que lê tudo):

On TV, “Sex and the City” was never as insulting as “Desperate Housewives,” which strikes me as catastrophically retrograde, but, almost sixty years after “All About Eve,” which also featured four major female roles, there is a deep sadness in the sight of Carrie and friends defining themselves not as Bette Davis, Anne Baxter, Celeste Holm, and Thelma Ritter did—by their talents, their hats, and the swordplay of their wits—but purely by their ability to snare and keep a man. Believe me, ladies, we’re not worth it.
