The “Crazy” Ex-Girlfriend - A Manufactured Trope
Get a full month of MUBI FOR FREE: https://mubi.com/thetake
The crazy ex-girlfriend is every guy’s greatest fear: she comes out of nowhere, hell-bent on stirring up drama and ruining her ex’s chances at new happiness without her. The pop culture version of the crazy ex can be terrifying, irritating, or genuinely in crisis - but countless movies and shows present this emotionally distressed woman without context as to the circumstances that got her there, framing her merely as an unpredictable liability and a problem that has to be eliminated. Yet, in reality, men are far more likely to resort to aggressive behavior after a break-up. So why is it that women are painted as universally responding to uncoupling with quote-unquote “insanity”?
