Her showers have gone cold, she’s fallen off her roof and her high-heeled feet have gone flat. The map appears as Barbie, played by Margot Robbie, is having an existential crisis. The second map, which Vietnamese entertainment writer Nguyên Lê pointed out on Twitter, depicts the world as we know it. The first is one of fictional Barbie Land - the city appears to be nestled along a body of water and at the foot of a mountain range, with pink clouds lining its borders that are fashioned into the shape of a heart. There are actually several maps with borders in the full-length “Barbie” trailer, released in May. Here is why such a small dotted line on a map - and how it’s depicted in the film - matters to Vietnam, China, and nearby countries. It’s a political mess that “Barbie” most likely didn’t intend to step into, but here we are. Much of the international community, including the United States, also disputes the border. Southeast Asian countries such as Vietnam and the Philippines disagree with the line. It’s a dotted line that China uses when drawing its borders in the South China Sea. Greta Gerwig’s highly-anticipated summer flick has crossed a line by drawing a line - the controversial “ nine-dash line” to be exact.
film.Īnd it has nothing to do with the film’s excessive use of pink, or Ryan Gosling’s Ken-doll spray tan (or, self-tan?). Now, the Philippines is considering its own ban on the Warner Bros. The upcoming movie “Barbie” has been banned in Vietnam.
