Todd Haynes' Safe is legitimately unsettling, but treating it as prescient wellness commentary is the kind of retroactive film-bro energy that mistakes thematic resonance for actual prediction. Someone watched a disturbing body-horror piece and immediately needed to make it about current discourse instead of just admitting the film holds up on its own merits.
