Cinema Starview Presents: The X-Traordinary Tragedy of Pearl
So, I recently just got done watching both of Ti West’s movies that are apart of his X-Traordinary film series. The original film titled X & its prequel Pearl. Here’s a brief review and analysis of what I like about both films.
Both films have an overall theme of sexuality, beauty, stardom, and womanhood. Through this, we realize how similar Pearl and Maxine are (and it’s not just because they’re both played by Mia Goth).
Pearl wanted so badly to be a star, that she would do anything to attain fame. She wanted to leave her dreary, farm life to perform on stage and in films for people to see, going as far as killing her parents to go to an audition. She doesn’t get the role and succumbs to her psychotic/sociopathic traits through murderous acts. Pearl comes to terms with never attaining her dreams of being a star, and lives the rest of her days on her farm with her husband, Howard. Maxine on the other hand went a more alternative route to her fame by staring in her boyfriend's adult films, in which during the ‘70s & ’80s sex became less of a taboo and more liberated, only to a slight degree that you could get paid for making adult content.
Wanting to be known, and admired is something many of us have dreamed of since we were young. Being a celebrity comes with a sense of intrigue and mystique. We’ve all had dreams of meeting a celebrity or befriending one when we were younger. I for one have always wanted to be known for my creativity and artistry. It’s tricky for many of us to attain stardom due to how limited industries are to get into. Whether we have the skillsets, the personality, or the charisma to entertain. Not everyone is lucky enough to be famous, however in this modern day and age, people can receive viral fame online, but there’s just something more… meaningful receiving attention in real life.
Both movies also commentate on the unfair advantage of women having to suppress their sensuality and explicit desires for the sake of purity. During Pearl’s prime, it was very taboo and a source of ridicule to express sexual desires with more than one man. She had a husband that left her to join the war, and she messed around with a guy that introduced her to adult movies. Another topic that I liked was how ageism plays a factor. Once you’re older, people may no longer find you beautiful, which does scare people into maintaining their youth for as long as they can.
I’m interested to see where the final film “MaXXXine” takes Maxine Minx’s character. If she’ll eventually end up in the same cycle that Pearl had succumbed to, of not achieving her stardom — or if she will find success, but things get in the way of it. Like her father being a pastor, or people somehow finding out about the never-released film she starred in the night everyone was murdered.
I’ve gotta say, I love where Mia Goth’s career is going. Hell, her name is movie star material alone haha. I’m so glad to be witnessing a new generation of Final Girls and Scream Queens in modern media.
SCORE: 8.5/10 ⭐️
