analyzing mermaids throughout film history🧜‍♀️🐚🫧

Watching all these mermaid movies made me sick of them, however there were a few standouts like Barbie in a Mermaid Tale and Night Tide. I've also never watched Aquamarine before, which is baffling to me because it's right up my alley. Loved it! Anyway, this particular video essay was an exhaustive experience. I really felt stuck at certain points while writing the script, but it's finally finished. Also I know my pronunciation is trash here (sorry)!
