shoutout to my high school senior year english teacher for telling me she personally identifies with Margot Tenenbaum and recommending this film. in return I told her I personally identified with ladybird and we bonded over identifying with mentally ill girlies in film & a year after I graduated she sent me a care packaged addressed to ladybird and signed off on it as M.T. 😭 I will forever love you for that Mrs. Moore

I would’ve eaten this shit up as a teenager. Also pondering what this film would be if it was directed by Wes Anderson instead

let’s be real 13 year old me wrote better more heart wrenching fanfic than this. as a lesbian I do not claim this

writers of this movie really said “what if 2005 Pete Wentz was also into satanism” as 2005 Pete Wentz was already into luring teenage girls
