Hey reddit! I'm Dan Bakkedahl. You might know me from things like VEEP, THE DAILY SHOW WITH JON STEWART, LIFE IN PIECES, SPACE FORCE, LEGIT, and THE STUNT DRIVER. I also star in ATTACK OF THE KILLER TOMATOES: ORGANIC INTELLIGENCE, out this week. Ask me anything!
Is there a movie where you, after rewatch years later, switched sympathies between characters?
I am talking about watching movies when you were 15, and loved a character, and then, years later, you realized like "Actually, this one had a point...?"
Similar to favouring Tom over Jerry in the cartoon as an adult?
I realized, at the age of 43 and as a woman with some life experience, that I was on on Miranda´s side in Mrs. Doubtfire after recent rewatch after about 15 years. Robin Williams is great in there, the movie lost nothing of that, there are great scenes and gags and it nicely changes into a family drama at the end without forcing happy end between them and ended up on a realistic note.
But honestly, I understood her point of view. And seeing Pierce Brosnan´s character as a "villain" back then, he is actually just a nice guy who is willing to marry a woman with three children who he cares about.
Do you have any movie like that?
