I know I said I’d stop complaining about the lack of mainstream support for “Carol,” but what the fucking hell is this shit? I mean it, WHAT THE FUCKING HELL? So I was watching TV last night and this spot for “Carol” came on. When it started I was like, “Oh, good, finally some nationwide publicity for this film.” But then I watched with increasing alarm as the gorgeous romantic drama that I loved was turned into a “provocative thriller” complete with frightening voiceovers and misleading scenes. I guess the story of two women in love that didn’t end in tears, death or sleeping with a man was just too hard for the studio to sell. So they had to make it scary. Boo, Harold, they’re lesbians.
