The release of the long-awaited ‘Barbie‘ movie, starring Australian actress Margot Robbie and Canadian actor Ryan Gosling, has finally happened today and the ending of the film is giving a lot to talk about on social media. But now, we are going to explain it in detail.
The success that ‘Barbie’ is representing at the worldwide box office is impressive, but what has also caught the attention of the internet is its curious ending, which is full of numerous messages to the roles that women play in society.
In view of this, several doubts have arisen regarding the end of the film, since in the end Margot only gives us to understand that the satires that she represents are actually factors that women face every day.
What is Barbie’s ending like?
After realizing what it really means to be a woman, Barbie decides to be one, without pain or regret for what she leaves behind in her world without problems. The next shot shows her, along with Gloria (America Ferrera) and her family, on her first day in the real world.
After nervously saying goodbye to everyone, the camera follows her to an office. Once there, she introduces herself as Barbara Handler, the name of her creator’s daughter, who, in fact, gave birth to the world’s most famous brand. In her last scene, someone asks Barbie why she has come. To which the doll replies that she has come for her first appointment with the gynecologist.
This is a clear and surprising allusion to the fact that, contrary to what she used to be, she now has genitals and, therefore, is a normal human being. In the meantime, Barbie decides to be a woman in order to have a representation of what women can contribute in a male-dominated world.
The end of Barbie is undoubtedly very important, as it is a clear message of what women can reflect in the everyday life of our days, and how they face many challenges simply because they are women.
