Partly because my Dad played it often, partly because Holst grew up near where I did, partly because it kicked off my teenage education in music, I will always have a special place in my heart for [The Planets](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Planets).
|
||||
|
||||
You should absolutely [listen to it now](https://songwhip.com/gustav-holst/holsttheplanets), particularly Jupiter, the Bringer of Jolity, and Mars, the Bringer of War (my favourites by a long way). My music teacher got us to close our eyes in our first class with him, played Mars, and asked us to describe what we thought was happening. I'll never forget the David Attenborough-esque march of the red ants I saw so vividly, clashing against the black ants as that piece sways and moves. (Perhaps I played too much [SimAnt](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SimAnt) that year?)

|

|

Along with the excitement we're also working through some disappointing realisations, in particular that we're not likely to be able to visit Yvette's family in Venezuela. The [FCDO advises heavily against trips](https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/venezuela), recommendations from friends in the country are cautious at best, and the USA's [prohibition of flights](https://www.reuters.com/article/us-venezuela-politics-airlines-idUSKCN1S733E) over Venezuela has even made finding ways into the country challenging. This is crushing for both of us; I'd love to see Christie again, and to meet so many of Yvette's family for the first time, but Venezuela's instability has kept Yvette away for the last eight years, and it's going to really suck being so close, and yet so far.
|
||||
|
||||
We're investigating the possibility of staying in Aruba during February and offering a space for Yvette's family to visit us there, which might work out depending on how quickly the [USA's recent U-turn](https://www.state.gov/joint-statement-on-venezuela-negotiations-2/) changes travel options. Yes, we've had [Kokomo](https://songwhip.com/the-beach-boys/kokomo) stuck in our heads and blasting from speakers for days.

This was an _excellent_ film that left me emotionally stretched in just the right way. It's an adult movie with childhood references (not a kids' film at all), and seems pitched at people roughly my age ([Matchbox Twenty](https://songwhip.com/matchbox-twenty/push) referenced as a track for wooing is too close for comfort!) It _superbly_ voices the internal contradictions women need to navigate to be accepted. It works hard not to centre Ken, even while his role is a critical counterpoint, but also gives a little airtime to how much a male-dominated world makes it hard to be a man too.

{{% spoiler "tmdb:346698" %}}In fact using Ken — an obviously one-dimensional doll of a man — as the very literal face of the very literal patriarchy neatly sidesteps any "but not all men" reactions getting in the way of the message. (I think they also rolled in some [incel](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incel) representation into his persona, giving him his own mini-arc to self-understanding and maturity.){{%/ spoiler %}}
