unsung costume is the éowyn 'refugee dress'
can find almost no film stills
it is also the outfit where they are traveling to helm's deep, she makes a shitty stew, she literally says it isnt much, and the director is still really shitty to her, making it crystal clear to the audience it sucks and by contrast, inference being, arwen's stew would have been wonderful with even less ingredients
really shitty
really misogynistic
i get that it is a play at a moment of levity and also to remind the audience about arwen and also to show how noble aragorn is, wincing thru it
and also the trope of obsessed unwell woman cos clearly she is into aragorn by now and he is with arwen and the audience is supposed to want that
but it sucks and if it were my film, éowyn's stew wouldve rocked
cos it is boring as hell that elves do everything better all the time
also makes me think less of aragorn he shouldve had strength enough to say he wasnt hungry or to try it and say it sucks
like he basically pityfucked her and was like: yea no that was great
like heavy on the gaslight and she can tell
poor éowyn fuck this
