'Midsommar' is the whitest movie of the summer
If you haven't seen Midsommar yet, you might be scratching your head trying to figure out if it's really a horror film. The answer is yes—definitely—but I understand why you're confused. Midsommar doesn't look like any horror film you've seen before, mainly because it's so damn bright. In fact, I'd venture to say that Midsommar is literally the whitest film of the summer, and that makes it even more unnerving.
But, Dani decides to go, and the group ventures to Sweden, where things get symbolically dark, but actually really bright, since the sun barely sets at that latitude during this time of year. It's really beautiful in the commune; everyone eats mushrooms and the scenery is an influencer's dream. The Swedes dance, sing, and dine together in verdant fields. They all wear flower crowns and all white caftans and gowns.
And, also: In case you thought I called Midsommar white as a nod to the racial or cultural background of most of its cast, you're not wrong. Let's be honest: I can't think of anywhere that would be whiter than this rural Swedish setting.
