Quote: “We mothers stand still so our daughters can look back to see how far they have come.”- Ruth Handler

Fun Facts: There is so much pink paint on set that there is a world shortage of them.

The Barbie car was actually remote controlled by the VR drone technology.

Margot Robbie made a rule which on Wednesdays, you have to wear something pink on set or else you will be fined and the fines are donated to charity.

Margot Robbie had to fight to get Aqua’s ‘Barbie Girl’ song included in the movie ( and thus a remix with Nicki Minaj and Ice Spice is made).

Summary: In this anticipated film, a confused Barbie leaves Barbieland with Ken to pursue the girl and her mother with chaotic results.

The One Liner Review: In what is perhaps Greta Gerwig’s biggest accomplishment, she amazingly turns the iconic doll into a movie that has such a pink-rific set and has a fun take a serious issue occurring in the real world.
