I think I'm at the point now where critiques that don't mention climate change seem like denial to me.
I read this long compilation of views (in Spanish) of The Worst Person In The World (boy do journalists love to think about journalist-y characters) and I think only one mentions the protagonist's political apathy.
Which might be fine if not for the film setting up one of her rivals as a figure of ridicule for her environmentalism (and a similar point being the catalyst for the end of a relationship). And in a film set, funded and portraying lives unimaginable without wealth built on exporting fossil fuels.
Not so much the director, because he's made the choice to espouse lazy cynicism for cheap laughs, but nearly 10 articulate people thinking very deeply about male gaze, cinema and women, none of them think to problematise the character beyond a lens of "white women's problems?"
Keep looking inwards, don't look up (as it were...)
