Cuphead and Mugman’s parents are rarely spoken of. What if at some point they died? It eventually would’ve caused a huge rift between the two brothers. It wasn’t easy drawing them hating each other. Audio is from the family drama film Warrior(2011), one of my all-time favorite movies.
i’m sure someone probably commented on this post already but this is calamity jane, they eventually move into a tiny cabin together and sing a song about how “a woman’s touch” can fix anything. i watched this movie daily when i was about 7 and now i’m a dyke
my butch lesbian professor who is well into her sixties had told me that this was her first real exposure to the concept that a woman could not only be attracted to other women, but be butch while doing it. she said this movie propelled her into her sexuality with a sense of pride and remains a cornerstone of her coming-out journey. in short, representation matters and always has.
