What do you kean shes not disillusioned?
Thats the entire arc. Noone is going to take her seriously. He dont wanna claim her either. He didnt even figut over her. She thought she could go on NATIONAL TV and her son not get flack. She thought that guy took her seriously. She thought she could make art. Make a difference. She had her kid tellin his friends that his mom makes movies.
Eileen/candy is a idiot. She lived a fantasy. Just like the tpimps hoes gangsters and businessmen.
And in the end she still alone. Crying outside daddys house. That i believe was the first showing of him after dodgin him first season. And boy did it have an effect. Notice the difference between the fathers of vin/frank snd candg.
I get what you are saying, yet at the end of the day she has a vision and is sticking by it.
Back in the 70's they wasnt empowering women to be bosses, and she's coming from the lowest of low trying to set it off.
He dont wanna claim her, yet in the same token tried to save face, cop a plea, and was sad. He knew he fukked up. Otherwise he wouldnt had been standing there looking like a idiot when he got busted.
Maybe she lacked a lil foresight in the dept of her son being bullied, yet and still after the interview and being ridiculed she knows where she stands.
The article written up said the movie was art, minus the sex.
Its obvious from the beginning cuz everybody thinks JUST cuz she's a hoe, she's already pigeonholed.
I dont think she was living a fantsay for the fact she was smart enough not to get duped by or have a pimp.
Its hard being a renegade hoe, but she works the streets just fine.
She is alone because he father denounced her being a hoe, and still has problems with it.
Regarding the comparison of fathers, you leave out the level class each has or lacks which is also a proponent of the characters in the show.
Eileen/Candy seems to hoe out of choice rather than coercion or lack of resources.
Whereas you say she disillusioned, I say she is sticking by her vision.
