Reading Notes: Sita Sings the Blues Part B

Train of thought:
  • Oh no!! Don't come back!
  • Okay I love this new black and white outline depiction 
  • Sita is pregnant!! Arguing over whether its rama or ravana
  • Oh no this laundromat thingy
  • He needed to have the respect of his subjects so he needed to get rid of Sita?
  • OH NO BUSTY SITA IS PREGNANT NOW!!!!
  • Sita has been abandoned
  • Now we're back in Brooklyn with cockroaches
  • banished - shown to be pregnant
  • Oh no I absolutely love this humongous pregnant Sita 
  • Sita is depressed but gives birth to twins which learn to worship Rama?
  • Very annoying song about Rama
  • Back in Brooklyn, the narrators are now finally addressing/connecting the two stories
  • Basically why would you fight for a guy that doesnt want you
  • lol "unconditional love" I love these arguments
  • Rama finds his sons? He doesnt want Sita though, this is a mess
  • Proving the whole purity thing is a mess 
  • Oh no Mother earth's womb
  • So Sita leaves?? Rama is shook.
  • We're back in Brooklyn, she's reading the Ramayana!!!
Final Thoughts:

Basically this whole movie is shaped around the idea of female empowerment and forgetting toxic men and celebrating yourself. I especially love the ending! The New York lady finds herself and starts doing her own thing, which I guess ends up being the whole movie! Loved it.
