One Dress a Day Challenge

July: Green Redux + Blue Redux

The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel (s5e9, "Four Minutes") / Marin Hinkle as Rose Weissman

It's a good thing I'm doing both blue and green this month, because otherwise I wouldn't know which color to file this under. The dress is mostly green, but with strong accents of blue, while the matching coat is blue but lined with the same green material as the body of the dress. Plus matching hat, of course. Note the bows on the hat and on the bodice of the dress--they're easy to miss, with the print. And I'm pretty sure we've seen Rose wear that multi-strand green bead necklace before.

While making the screencaps, I was momentarily confused about the object sitting on the clipboard in the shot where Rose is talking on the phone. "Surely that can't be a d20," I thought, "but it really looks like one!" Upon enlarging the shot, I found that it was an earring, which Rose had very properly removed before answering the phone. There's a nice look at her textured bracelet too.

Midge Maisel Flashforwards

Okay, so I want to be clear here, and I hope this post doesn't incite backlash but I really wanted to get my thoughts out on the flashforwards provided in the first three episodes of Mrs Maisel

Spoilers Ahead!!!

So it did come as a shock to have these flashforwards, but I like it mainly for three reasons: 1) it gives light to Midge's future which is something very realistic as well as shed light on the fact that Midge's decisions have downsides as well; 2) it has This is Us vibes but something that was a little Forrest Gump meets How I Met Your Mother vibe and is set in the beginning of the episode instead of the end or a misleading event to hide a bombshell 3) ASP doesn't plan on returning it so don't expect a AYITL part to Mrs Maisel.

So with that, let's dive into the flashforwards:

First Flashforward- Esther Maisel

So for those who thought Esther was annoying and the fact that Midge Maisel is a terrible mother is unwarranted, you're wrong!!! Esther is definitely unique, given that she's very much a version of Abe and Midge in the earlier season with her mother in terms of how she views her relationship with her mom, but you can't help but be empathetic to her because yes, being a child of an uber-famous parent is not easy. Take for example, Gypsy the musical, or children of famous actors- its something that happens. Given that Esther was a baby when Midge started out her career unlike Ethan, her mommy issues are bigger and more intense. I hope the show extends this further.

Second Flashforward- Midge's 60 Second show

So, I think this is by far the biggest of them all, because it gives some great and not so great updates on Midge's life- her career has skyrocketed, she's got multiple awards, she did an infamous show at Carnegie Hall a decade after Lenny's own show, she toured worldwide (as she would've done at Shy's own tour), with Bob Hope (something Moishe thought she was doing) and made friendships with renowned faces. On the downside- 4 failed marriages and multiple romantic relationships. This... is not exactly normal, but if you look at the romantic lives of these actors/celebrities- Cary Grant, Myrna Loy, Ginger Rogers, Irene Castle, Rita Hayworth, Sonny and Cher, Marlene Dietrich, even comedian Fanny Brice, you'll find that busted romantic lives is a common thread. If you also want fictional examples- A Star is Born, Blue Valentine, Revolutionary Road, Once, The Way We Were and many other similar movies.

With regards to Midge and Suzy's certain rift, it can be considered the opposite of Elvis Presley and Colonel Tom Parker. It's sad (but you kind of see it coming). It's like when bands break up- they'll find success but everyone wants their own identity. The worst enemy is yourself.

Third Flashforward

Ethan Maisel at 24 being a little aimless and having an unconventional professional journey (honoring his Jewish identity by working in Israel at a kibbutz and becoming a rabbi) and actually marrying a woman who is controlled and strong (an Army version of Midge- I like that they named her Chava, it's a callback to Fiddler on the Roof's third youngest daughter) shows his mommy issues which are different from Esther's but still there- it's all pretty in character. The fact that he keeps his engagement from his mother but still respects her nevertheless shows how much of mothering that we've seen from Midge from throughout the show has affected him.

“It’s five seasons of television, so hopefully, the relationship has evolved. I do think he loves her. I mean, I don’t even think he loves her. He loves her, duh.”

Godd that final scene when Midge looks at Susie at the end and Susie has her hand on her heart...just perfection

#i may hate season 5 #but the gordon ford scene may have redeemed all the bullshit #gif makers where are you??? #all i see are lennymidge gifsets #where is the susiemidge appreciation #really glad they acknowledged that they are the heart of the show #rather than god forbid joel x midge #eugh #tmmm #the marvelous mrs maisel #susie myerson #midge maisel #season 5 spoilers

I feel like no one ever mentions that the reason the mob got involved was because Midge blew the lid on Sophie Lenin's secret standup persona. Yes, Midge didn't like Sophie's behavior but Sophie did let Midge into her home and divulged her standup secrets. Midge basically threw a major wrench in Sophie's career and livelihood over nothing. I don't remember if Sophie hired the mob or if it was her manager but regardless Susie didn't provoke it! Tired of Joel, Midge, and Susie's to a certain extent, acting like Susie somehow got herself into that mess when it was Midge.

#Marvelous Mrs maisel #Not really a season 5 spoiler #This has been bothering me since the season it happened

[atlasshrugd]

I think the flash forwards are a way to distract people/misdirect them. For them to show the negative outcome of Midge’s success story so early in the show sets it up to be subverted/overcome by the end of the show. Otherwise, what are people sticking around for? There obviously has to be more to the story, the ending can’t be spoiled at the beginning. I bet the writers have something up their sleeve when it comes to the flash forwards.

someday, ages after the show’s been finished, I’m going to roll up with a post compiling a bunch of screenshots of moments where Midge Maisel was subtextually queer. and I’ve just accepted that by the time I ever get around to it no one is going to care (especially since very few people would’ve cared in the first place) but that’s okay. I think the world needs it anyway. eventually. just so it’ll exist somewhere.

#TMMM #the marvelous mrs. maisel #me watching the show: why do they very rarely/occasionally make little jokes and subtexty moments about this when it means nothing >:( #me in season 5: wait what the Fuck. wait what the FUCK? HELLO? DONT PLAY WITH ME #me in the finale: AAAAAAAAAAAA #like they really did that. midge and susie soulmates real. #MIDGE FUCKED WOMEN IN COLLEGE!!!!

“I’ve always felt like their affection was true and real, but his life was obviously becoming subsumed under all of the incessant litigation that was so damaging, coupled with how he was opting to treat his pain. And so, I imagine him as getting more enmeshed in that reality. But the nice thing about true love is that it never fades.”
