Nowhere in any of the 30 days is the reason for that look of contempt mentioned. 1 “look directed at men” when “ranked by contempt” is rightfully recognized as Carol “wishing death upon a man.” In the image, Carol, wearing a fur coat and visibly crying, is pointing a gun and staring down a man who has wronged her. The still image Autostraddle chose as the No. What has come to be regarded as a lesbian holiday romance is actually a film about heartbreaking sacrifice and the impossible choices involved in living as your true self. In 2018, Autostraddle ran “30 Days of Carol,” with pieces like “ Is Carol Mommi or Daddy” and “ Carol Looks Ranked By the Degree to Which They Mark Therese As a Snack.” With all of that joyful obsession floating around the queer Zeitgeist, I was completely unprepared when I finally saw the actual film. And there are countless Carol memes all over social media for the entire month of December (the Instagram account godimsuchadyke, which has over 150,000 followers, begins posting them on November 1). There is Carol merch, with the image of the meet-cute between the titular Carol and Therese, whose love story is at the center of the film. Heralded as the gay Christmas movie, dykes of all stripes excitedly post about the 2015 film come December. On the queer internet, Christmas is Carol season.
