Babygirl highlights an age gap relationship that challenges societal norms, showcasing the need for more diverse narratives in Hollywood's representation of love.
Halina Reijn stated, 'If we see a movie where the male actor is the same age as the female actor, we find that odd. Which is insane.'
She continued, 'It should completely be normalized that the age gaps switch and that women have different relationships.' This emphasizes the importance of variety in relationship dynamics as seen on screen.
Reijn concluded, 'We're not trapped in a box anymore. We internalize the male gaze, we internalize patriarchy, and we need to free ourselves from it.'
