It is difficult to fathom why Fifty Shades Darker is snubbed at the 2018 Oscars. It is plausible risqué content of Fifty Shades Darker precluded nomination of Fifty Shades Darker as meriting credible social value as serious artistic achievement in the minds of Oscar judges. Risqué content within Fifty Shades Darker invokes images of adolescent snickering and giggling at back of the theater therefore Oscar nominating judges failed to recognize film as a serious contender for an Oscar award reflecting social merit.

The performances of Jamie Dornan as Christian Grey, Dakota Johnson as Anastasia Steele, as well as supporting cast gets rave reviews for fine acting from this wanna-be film critic for portrayal of weighty socially relevant themes. As a fictional drama Fifty Shades Darker explored sexual harassment in the workplace before incriminating indictments against powerful businessmen became public therefore Fifty Shades Darker may be an early progenitor of the MeToo movement (1).



Oftentimes dark secrets buried within the subconscious are explored early onward in fictional books and movies because it is simply too uncomfortable to discuss taboo topics openly in public. Sexual harassment at work that ignited the MeToo movement sadly may be a byproduct of a put out or get out mentality within capitalist markets that demand an exceptional near perfect performance.

An exceptional near perfect performance at any task demands overcoming thermodynamic law of entropy or disorder within physical universe. My analytical study of fabric upon which physical universe is built outlined in my freelance article entitled, An Understanding of Process of Particalization Versus Quantum Wave Function of Reality (2), may help provide an understanding of Quantum uncertainty associated with hypothetical construct of love depicted in movie Fifty Shades Darker

Quantum uncertainty associated with hypothetical construct of love may be the psychological dynamics behind a couple playfully exploring concept of submission. Quantum uncertainty associated with hypothetical construct of love during process of relating to another human being can make a poor fellow feel like he fell into the matrix after Holy matrimony.

Knots and Loose ends within Dynamics of Quantum Physics and String Theory in Context of Human and Machine Consciousness. Loose ends representing uncertainty inherent in quantum wave function of physical reality and knots representing process of particalization, occurring as consequence of observations, not accurately reflecting reality. Particalization of knots from simulation of reality by the mind culminate in impermanence of thought.

Fifty Shades Darker included themes of submission. The Kinsey Study (3) encouraged society to openly explore the taboo subject of human sexuality. The Kinsey Study empowered men and women to have a deeper profound understanding of the nature of love as expressed by sexuality above and beyond mechanically fulfilling biological functions.

Oftentimes sex becomes a rote mechanical act demanded and expected. The Kinsey Study opened the door to questioning traditional gender roles. 

Questioning of traditional gender roles expands the concept of self and allows men and women to view each other as whole complete human beings. An open discussion of the taboo subject of sexuality within an intelligent adult paradigm of a scientific research study empowered women especially to have a greater awareness of concept of self identity above and beyond biological functions of child bearing machines. Women who acquire a greater awareness of self identity have more to offer in terms of motherhood.

A quantum perspective of submission adds a new fuller dimension to meaning of submission given a variable in a mathematical expression can be both true and false simultaneously. Submission is a Biblical theme. 

When a line of thought, Wives submit to your husbands (Ephesians 5:22) is considered as one trajectory without consideration of a second line of thought, or trajectory, Husbands love your wives ( Ephesians 5:25) then full Biblical meaning is lost. Biblical encouragement of husbands to love their wives requires men to view wives as more then mere robotic machines designed to fulfill a child bearing home making purpose. 

In order for men to truly love their wives they must view their wife as a whole complete person wonderfully made in the image of God. In the movie Fifty Shades Darker, Anastasia Steele performed by actress Dakota Johnson insisted upon continuing her publishing career after marriage to Christian Grey. As a loving husband, Christian Grey viewing his wife as a whole complete person above and beyond a mere instrument for sex agreed his wife Anastasia Steele should continue her publishing career.

A quantum perspective to reading the Bible requires both trajectories expressed in two Biblical verses both be considered simultaneously. In the old days, when one room school houses were many miles apart, sparsely scattered on the frontier, people with poor reading skills did not know anything about Albert Einstein’s Relativity and Quantum mechanics. In the old days, men and women did not have as many choices as they do now, therefore men and women mechanically fulfilled gender roles in a rote fashion without questioning or trying to learn about oneself as wonderfully made in the image of God with dynamics of personality approximating infinity.

Love is elusive within society where (1) lifestyle choices for unique individuals are continuing to expand daily and (2) unique individuals are made in the image of God with dynamics of personality approximating infinity. Paradoxically, If these two conditions did not exist there could not be any love. 

A couple playfully exploring willingness to submit based upon free will may be better understood in terms of an endless combinational factorial design in equation of two people relating to each other during process of falling in love. Quantum uncertainty associated with hypothetical construct of love during process of relating to another human being involves psychological complexity of losing control. 

In social media someone asked, what is the color of love?. After giving it some thought to the question, what is the color of love?, I responded, It just occurred to me, could love be the color of a translucent rainbow? I am not sure if translucent is an appropriate word to describe love as two people in love lay their soul bare because they know they will be loved unconditionally by their soulmate. However, I like the word translucent so I wanted to throw it in sentence.

In bygone eras when men and women were very limited in lifestyle choices it is questionable how many marital partners truly loved each other as they mechanically fulfilled assigned gender roles because they did not have a choice.

Fifty Shades Darker is a cinamagraphic study of a couple playfully exploring submission through bondage during an era when love is elusive. An elusive quality of love in the modern era makes the concept of playfully exploring submission through bondage an intriguing plot for a movie. Jamie Dornan as Christian Grey, Dakota Johnson as Anastasia Steele, as well as supporting cast provide an expertly crafted performance to gracefully bring form and shape to these dynamic issues.

Accolades from a wanna-be film critic may be entirely welcomed by cast and crew of Fifty Shades Grey. According to an article, Fifty Shades of Grey picks up five awards at annual 'celebration' of Hollywood's worst films... with Razzies for Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson (4)  by Rachel McGrath for DailyMail.com about Razzie Awards dished out to Fifty Shades Grey


“Stars Jamie Dornan and Dakaota Johnson were named worst actor and worst actress, as well as worst screen combo, while the film scored a Razzie for worst screenplay.” 

 Wow, some of these film critics put on the boxing gloves. It makes one speculate about secret proclivities of film critics desiring to be tied up in bondage. After reviewing accolades from this wanna-a-be film critic cast and crew of Fifty Shades Grey may adopt Garth Brooks song, Friends in Low Places (5), as their theme song.

Fifty Shades Darker did not get nominated for a 2018 Oscar Academy Award (6), but this wanna-a-be film critic is rooting for Fifty Shades Freed to take home an Oscar in 2019 for outstanding acting providing a cinematographic study of psychological complexity of losing control as a result of hypothetical construct of love during process of relating to another human being produces quantum uncertainty due to an endless combinational factorial design in equation of two people relating to each other when falling in love.
