O AMOR É CEGO (SHALLOW HAL, USA, 2001) – Em tese, a mensagem é correta – o que importa é a beleza interior, mas os irmãos Farrelly erram a mão e abordam o tema dando margem a uma interpretação insultuosa, que em nada ajuda ao entendimento de uma história com fortes traços lipofóbicos. De qualquer forma, Gwyneth Paltrow está mais linda do que nunca. The overall message is correct - inner beauty is ultimately, what counts, because a sparkling character will outlast youthful good looks by decades. However, the Farrelly's have approached the subject in a way that actually insults, rather than genuinely educates. It is not going to uplift anyone who is overweight, it will just depress them. The majority of the film perpetuates the idea that being fat or ugly makes you a pariah or the object of sympathy or vulgar fascination. Anyway, Gwyneth Paltrow was never so beautiful.
