Demi Moore Addresses Extreme Nudity, Violence in Cannes Shocker ‘The Substance’

Entertainment Variety Tv Site: https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/tv-site/ Scott Roxborough Monday, 20 May 2024 17:24
  • Unique Points
    • Demi Moore played Elisabeth Sparkle in the body horror film ‘The Substance’,
    • Moore had a naked, no-holds-barred bloody fight with Margaret Qualley in one of the graphic scenes.
    • The film skewers the male perspective of the ideal woman and shows violence as a metaphor for emotional and physical violence inflicted on women.
    • Quaid dedicated his role to Ray Liotta.
  • Accuracy
    No Contradictions at Time Of Publication
  • Deception (80%)
    The article contains some editorializing and selective reporting. The author uses phrases like 'gory, campy satire', 'toxic masculinity and female self-hatred', 'excellent Demi Moore' to express his opinion about the movie. He also quotes Fargeat saying 'I don't know any woman that doesn’t have an eating disorder or some other thing that they do that does violence to their bodies.' without providing any context or linking it to peer-reviewed studies, implying a fact. However, the article does disclose sources and provides quotes from the press conference.
    • I don’t know any woman that doesn’t have an eating disorder or some other thing that they do that does violence to their bodies.
    • The Substance is a gory, campy satire on beauty standards, toxic masculinity and female self-hatred
  • Fallacies (90%)
    The author makes an appeal to authority by quoting others' opinions on the film. There is a dichotomous depiction of male characters as toxic masculinity and a focus on extreme nudity and violence in the film. However, no formal fallacies are present.
    • . . .the Ghost and G.I. Jane star said she never saw herself “as the victim”
    • Filming in Hungary Comes With a 20-Year-Old Tax Rebate - and Thermal Baths
    • The male characters in The Substance don’t come off well, with each shown as a different variant of toxic masculinity.

‘The Substance’ Review: An Excellent Demi Moore Helps Sustain Coralie Fargeat’s Stylish but Redundant Body Horror

The Hollywood Reporter Lovia Gyarkye Sunday, 19 May 2024 21:50
  • Unique Points
    • Demi Moore is fired from her job as a celebrity host due to ageism.
    • Harvey, Elisabeth’s producer, wants to replace her with a younger actress.
    • Fargeat explores themes of sexism and ageism in The Substance.
    • Elisabeth seeks a solution by contacting The Substance, a program that allows individuals to clone a younger version of themselves.
    • After individuals spawn their duplicates, one enters a coma every 7 days while the other roams free. Both characters are trapped in the same toxic cycle as societal standards.
  • Accuracy
    No Contradictions at Time Of Publication
  • Deception (50%)
    The article contains selective reporting as the author only mentions how Elisabeth's character is treated unfairly and overlooked in favor of a younger replacement, while omitting any mention of her own actions leading to her dismissal. The author also uses emotional manipulation by describing Harvey's words towards Elisabeth as 'perversity' and 'blunt assessment', implying that the reader should feel sympathy for Elisabeth without providing all the necessary context.
    • Harvey doubles down on his offensiveness. By the time women reach the age of 50, he suggests to Elisabeth while stuffing his mouth with shrimp, it’s over for them.
    • The Substance, which premiered at Cannes in competition, is Fargeat’s second feature. It builds on the director’s interest in the disposability of women in a sexist society
  • Fallacies (100%)
    None Found At Time Of Publication
  • Bias (95%)
    The author expresses a clear bias towards the theme of sexism and ageism in Hollywood towards women. She repeatedly mentions how women are 'trapped' by these forces and takes aim at 'cisgender heterosexual men'. The author also uses language that depicts Harvey as an offensive character, describing him as an 'oily personality' who believes that women over the age of 50 are disposable. The author also expresses a preference for the subversive feminist themes in Fargeat's film.
    • Harvey doubles down on his offensiveness. By the time women reach the age of 50, he suggests to Elisabeth while stuffing his mouth with shrimp, it’s over for them.
      • The director also takes aim at Hollywood’s ghoulish machinations and the compulsive physical and psychological intrusiveness of cisgender heterosexual men.
        • The most compelling parts of The Substance deal with how social conventions turn women against themselves.
