Girls Will Be Girls Movie Review by Sucharita Tyagi - The closest we come to meeting a “bad guy” in Gilrs Will Be Girls is when a group of boys chase Mira back into her hostel on teacher’s day. All the students are cosplaying adults and within a instantly a young pent-up masculine rage comes to the front on the very first day they’ve been given the opportunity to behave like grown men without consequences. As your heart breaks for this 16 year old who has done no wrong, you see her internalize every problem in the structures around her, as somehow being her fault. Should she have not been attractive to Sri? Are teenage sexual urges sinful? Should women not be allowed to be in-charge?
Kani Kusruti is just magic as Anila, a woman jostling to feel wanted and appreciated, while going through the motions of responsibilities she must fulfill. In Shuchi Talati’s observation, Anila succeeds in protecting her daughter by allowing her to see first hand a balanced level of narcissism a woman must possess in order to claim the spaces she wants to occupy.
The tenderness of Shuchi’s gaze towards Mira and Anila is brought to the frame thanks to the film’s Taiwanese cinematographer Jih-E-Peng. When Mira is looks at naked body in a mirror, or practices kissing, or talks on the phone at night, these moment don’t feel blasphemous, shocking or manipulative because of the matter of factness with which they’re shot. It’s a beautiful and skilled coming together of craft and impression.
