even if sex scenes did only exist to make you horny (a ridiculous take that only exists in the minds of those bereft of analytical skills when it comes to film) ... even if that WAS true
"horny" is still a real and legitimate human experience to invoke. "this scene is there to make the viewer horny" yeah, and? the scene after is there to make you sad. film is just a bunch of scenes trying manipulate your shriveled up heart into feeling emotions, just embrace it

“I raised my hand and said, ‘No one who works in this factory wants to fly these planes, I mean, that’s just the truth,’” Kitchens said. A woman she didn’t know, who was wearing a bomber jacket emblazoned with the FAA logo, shot her a scowl. But it was hardly the first time she’d expressed anxiety over the planes’ safety with upper management. Years earlier, she had asked a boss if he would let his children fly on a plane with the litany of flaws and non-conformances he was urging her to “pencil-whip”: “Cindy, none of these planes are staying in America, they’re all going overseas,” he retorted, much to her horror. An investigator who worked on the documentary told the Prospect that employees he interviewed were especially anxious about three planes they had worked on that were scheduled to be delivered to Air India during the first months of 2014. The planes all had serious flaws that required them to be flown to the union assembly line in Everett to be re-worked. The Air India Dreamliner that crashed today took off from the Everett airport en route to Delhi for the first time on January 31, 2014.
im doomed by the narrative but the narrative is a bunch of conscious choices i've made in the past
