THE GENIUS OF THE RUNAWAY MOVIE.
With the anniversary of MBDTF less than a week away I thought I’d do a thread explaining this masterpiece of a movie directed by Hype Williams and Kanye.
The movie starts with a Phoenix falling from the sky and landing in the forest. She has started a forest fire and is saved by Kanye. This Phoenix represents Kanye’s alter ego, which is his creativity. It’s burns brightly but also destroys.
The Phoenix wakes up to the news and Kanye tells her to “not believe anything you see on the news.” The media has constantly been against Kanye and this can sometimes effect an artist’s creativity, if they were to pay too much attention to it.
Trapped in this room, with the outside world only in view, the Phoenix enjoys the beats that Kanye is playing, it makes her move. Similar to Kanye being inspired by samples and beats to make his own music. The music keeps himself and his creativity happy.
In the next scene, we see Michael Jackson being paraded with a black and white angel on either side. This shows that Michael Jackson was put on parade for the world and was both vilified and idolized.
After trying to tame the Phoenix, he takes her to a dinner party. He’s showing his creative passion to the world. People continue to stare and tell Kanye “Your girlfriend is really beautiful. Do you know she’s a bird?” (CONTINUED...)
This represents how Kanye exposes his differences and creativity to the world and people will still choose to point things out instead of just loving it the way it is.
The Phoenix sees that they are eating bird for dinner and freaks out. People are scared by the Phoenix’s reaction and Kanye wonders how he will ever control his Phoenix (creative self) without offending people. Like in the incident where Kanye interrupted Taylor to praise Beyoncé
In the last scene, the Phoenix tells Kanye that the statues are Phoenixes that didn’t let their fire burn. She finds peace in the nature around her and has to leave Kanye. This represents Kanye leaving to Hawaii in the process of making this album. He let his creativity live on.
All in all, this movie is a perfect representation of Kanye and all the other legendary artists that gave everything to the world and were punished because of it. Thank you to @kanyewest @HypeWilliams for giving us this masterpiece and inspiring a whole generation.
