The Pervert’s Beverage
The adult milk drinker is a consummate freak.
Filmmakers had trained me to assume that as a milk-drinking adult man, he was either a nihilistic youth hellbent on random violence ( A Clockwork Orange), a psychopath about to murder someone with a cattle gun ( No Country for Old Men), or a racist white woman collecting Black boyfriends to brainwash into assimilation ( Get Out), but none of those felt right. The show follows the decadeslong love affair between two men, Hawk (Matt Bomer), an older, more established bourbon drinker, and Tim (Jonathan Bailey), an idealistic, milk-drinking recent college graduate. This brings us to the current occasion: Babygirl, writer-director Halina Reijn’s exploration of the manic horniness that sets in during middle age, in which milk once again is at the center of giving and taking power.
