I saw someone post a career retrospective thing on Charlize Theron and it was about her journey to find challenging roles when it’s very clear that what Hollywood had in mind for her was that she would be beautiful. I mean, she accomplished the beautiful part but she has come up with some very interesting roles that allow her to be more than that beautiful woman in the movie. Like they mentioned Young Adult which was a challenging and not perfect movie but while she is indeed a beautiful woman there she is also very distasteful. On purpose. I really do like her as an actress (and I am remembering I really need to see Atomic Blonde. I had high hopes when it first was released, the reviews were meh but I have to be honest, she looks so cool in it, I just want to see it for the visuals). The thing is, she hasn’t been posted here much for reasons I have gone over before, she’s too beautiful. I realize that sounds very stupid and counter to the whole purpose of this blog but it’s true. I guess it’s why they tried to shove her in a box on Hollywood as well. She isn’t just pretty, she is the kind of pretty where it feels wrong to lust after her like, oh, that isn’t for human consumption. I’m not good enough for her (which I guess tangentially means I think I am good enough for everyone else I post here. That’s a fun bit of ego on my part). But sometimes I can’t resist because well, look at her. And you know, it’s a nice reminder that she really has pulled off some great roles. I still think Fury Road is the best action movie in more than a decade. Today I want to fuck Charlize Theron.
