I actually think this is exactly the point of the scene. Warner clearly thinks of Marilyn as gorgeous but dumb and Jackie as smart but less sexy. But we’re in this movie from Elle’s point of view. And Elle doesn’t understand Warner’s implication here because, to her, both these women are successful and beautiful and amazing. The only difference is one is blonde and the other is a brunette.
This scene isn’t trying to make Elle look stupid, because the point of the movie is that she’s not. She’s just incredibly, unabashedly feminine. And Elle’s way of thinking here is right. The main difference between Marilyn and Jackie, that Warner would know of and therefore could be alluding to, that is also something Marilyn and Elle have in common with each other, is their hair colour.
This is also a great point because people like to think Marilyn Monroe was vapid and dumb due to her film roles but she was actually incredibly intelligent and also just a great person all around, just like how Elle might seem dumb but is able to get into law school on her own merit. Neither should be underestimated!
it starts with a cycle where the twins died within the first few weeks. The crew is so relieved to eat good food when the next one starts. Magnus asks taako to teach him how to cook. After a few months taako is standing behind magnus and guiding his hand, teaching him how to whisk properly and blushes when he realizes how intimate it is. they both laugh about it and try to play it off as nothing but they realize that theyre the only things that remains after each cycle. They start with romantic dinners. Magnus isnt good but its a romantic gesture that taako appreciates even if he does give some snark. Magnus doesnt mention their relationship to the rest of the crew because hes still trying to figure things out and taako doesnt say anything because nobody asks. Merle finds out when he walks in on taako giving magnus a tender kiss and then forgets to say anything because hes merle.
Imagine being the gays at a pride event in 2004 living their lives when someone grabs the microphone and announces to the room that Ronald Reagan was pronounced dead. Can you even imagine the hype, the celebration, the pure elation
