Singin' in the Rain's ballet scene as a reference point for Barbie's ‘dream ballet,' where all the Kens would be dressed in black and dance across a wide-open, pink and blue-hued space, as they work out their identity issues.
“It just said in the script, ‘And then it becomes a dream ballet and they work it out through dance',” Gerwig said in the interview (via Mark Ronson wrote.
The song is now a certified hit, with over 78.5 million streams on Margot Robbie over an undisclosed scene that felt ‘off-brand' to him. The duo changed his mind by performing the scene before him, and it stayed.
Barbie is now the biggest film of 2023, having grossed $1.43 billion (about Rs. 11,901 crore) at the global box office, sitting right above first-ever woman director to the billion-dollar club, and follows the stereotypical Barbie doll (Robbie) living her perfect life in the pink-hued Barbie Land until she starts turning sentient and is forced to face an existential crisis. Wanting to reverse those conflicting thoughts, she sets off on a journey to the real world with Ken (Gosling), where she learns about patriarchy, the troubled lives of women and how barbie dolls have perpetuated stereotypes and led young girls to have a skewed perception of themselves. The film is slated to release on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-Ray, and DVD formats on October 17.
Barbie is now available to watch digitally, and is still showing in select theatres across the world.
