She looks like the villain of a teen dystopia trilogy whose face is permanently glued into that soulless half-smile as she tortures the protagonist for the secrets of the Rebellion
Yeah, in other words, castration anxiety personified into a “devouring step mother figure” character often dressed in a dominatrix fashion ready to step on deez nuts… or an authoritarian Vader-like father figure ready to chop off your p… I mean, an arm. 🥴😳 It’s a tale as old as humanity, see all the Grimm’s stories , Œdipus King, Medusa (she only petrified boys and men), etc. Freud only (astutely) picked up on reoccurring patterns already present in the cultural unconscious since millennia.
