'Smile' and 'Smile 2' explained. A video essay (with spoilers) about the dark deeper meaning of ‘Smile’ (2022) and 'Smile 2' (2024), written and directed by Parker Finn and starring Sosie Bacon, Jessie T. Usher, Kyle Gallner, Kal Penn, Rob Morgan, Caitlin Stasey, Naomi Scott, Rosemarie DeWitt and Miles Gutierrez-Riley. In this video I get into its deeper themes and symbolism. I consider the chain of victims, the masks we all hide behind and more.
