This is ffrom y hubby:
My synopsis of “The Shape of Water” [with spoilers]:
A water and air breathing creature is captured in order to somehow further space research. White people are racist. A cleaning lady likes to give the creature food she brings to work. Men are sexist. The lab decides to cut open the creature because that is the only research technique they know. Christians are mentally unstable. Driven by a deep desire to to protect the sanctity of life, the cleaning lady and accomplices murder an innocent guard and escape with the creature. The worst mix is the straight-Christian-White-Male (SCWM). The woman performs bestiality with the creature. The only hope for a SCWM is to transcend his toxic masculinity by becoming gay, because gays are always good people. The cleaning lady and the creature swim away.
THanks for the synopsis. I was fairly sure I would never see this movie, but now I know that even if I lived 100 lifetimes I would never see this movie. UGH.

Thanks for the synopses.
Reminds me of Rand’s ‘The Fountainhead’ - where the untalented are praised, and real artistry and talent is mocked and dismissed.
In effect, Abe Sapien gets laid while all other sub plots tell us how white males are all racist and evil. I’ll pass.
