All day long I'd diddy-diddy-dum,
If I were an Otherkin.
Wouldn't have to... naw, actually, that's not true at all! And besides, I hate that musical.

Long rant. 

@Leucrotta I remember it always making me a bit uncomfortable how despite the father softening up to two of his daughters "disobeying", the movie in its own way says that this tyrannical, patriarchal family dynamic is OK, even endearing.
The disowning of the third daughter was just harrowing to watch every time. Eff this movie for trying to make it a heart-tugging moment without showing the painful depth of what being shunned by one's "family" is really like.

Long rant. 

@CrownedRat third daughter is the one who marries a Ukrainian, right? She basically joined the desired majority, with all those implications. But I also agree with you somewhat; I understand how Jews and Roma wind up this clannish, but it’s still gross to see in action. A shitty majority setup begat shitty minority reactions.
