⚘ Welcome! Välkommen ⚘

Welcome to Reflections on Midsommar, a place where I take delight in all of the amazing details in the movie Midsommar. My name's Kirby and I really love the magic, beauty, and horror of this movie. This blog contains spoilers so don't look if you haven't seen it!

Here are some current topics I'm working on:

Meet the Hårgans: Trying to match names to faces, with an introduction to each individual member of the Hårga, including key scenes they appear in and any fun facts I've been able to figure out about the characters.

Artwork in the Movie: Some of the works of art that appear in and are referenced by Midsommar

Behind the Scenes: found images and interviews with the cast and crew

Fan Art: Inspired by the movie, created by artists

Discovering Details: WOW does this movie ever have the most exquisite details! From the embroidered runes to foreshadowing to connections and relationships. No detail is too tiny to mention here.

Theories: What's the deal with Inga? Was Pelle responsible for the deaths of Dani's family? Who was last year's May Queen?

If you have any of your own reflections on Midsommar you'd like to submit or share, you are invited to leave a comment here or on Instagram at @mid.sommary, or email midsommary@gmail.com

Also, I am just a fan and I do not have any insider knowledge. I watched the movie, scoured Instagram, and checked out every interview I could find. If there are any mistakes here, they are all mine, and I would be very happy if you let me know if I got anything wrong. Thank you!!!

Swipe right for deep info on a simple but beautiful pic.
Truly, these women made this scene possible. It was TERRIFYING. As terrifying as it was to watch, it was to read and know we had to do it.
I love these girls so much. I’m not a big crier, so going through that with them was true safely and love and respect. It only happened because I had them.
Funny fact- I lost my shoe every time I crawled off the bed and worried that the camera could see a dirty muddy espadrille sweaty foot in the background.
Thank goodness that wasn’t the case...
Fun fact no.2, everytime we cut there were at least two hands around all of our rib cages, holding each other as we sobbed. #midsommar
