dressed in all pink pointing at a miniature toy that looks like a purple oven. The commercial has the five girls smiling and dancing to a song the entire time while they’re using the Easy Bake Oven to cook snacks for themselves and their friends.

Production design is one of my favorite parts of film analysis. I love the meaning and symbolism behind even the smallest of detail; all of which help bring the film to life.

Sadly I could not concede to its desire because my mom told me not to open any doors or windows so I just watched it till I fell asleep. When I woke up blthzr was there.
