      I once again feel like people talking about art in and of itself and people talking about the cultural impact of art (both valid, worthwhile conversations) are talking past each other. Yes, taken on its own terms, Goodfellas can be seen as a “critique” of the things it depicts.

      However, I think we’ve all known patriarchal assholes who love that movie, & others like it, and who don’t in any way feel challenged or threatened by what those films say about masculinity. If anything, those men on some level seek to emulate the behavior depicted in those films

          Perhaps we can say that this is entirely their fault for “not getting it.” But regardless of that, (and this is not me critiquing Goodfellas) *if* we believe that a film like it is meant to function as a critique, then I think, in terms of its cultural impact, it does not succeed

          It is possible to tell stories that are legitimately disruptive and challenging to patriarchy and to toxic masculinity. They don’t come around very often though. One way you can recognize them is they tend to make patriarchal men kind of uncomfortable.

          Carolyn Petit Retweeted BILL RYAN

          Like, can’t we acknowledge that Goodfellas and films like it are not exactly doing wonders for our patriarchal culture without that being equated with calls for censorship?https://twitter.com/faceyouhate/status/1181664830819897345?s=21 …
