Is public opinion shifting in favour of Amber Heard?
Is that the kind of redemption that awaits Amber Heard? Will she really wait two decades before a younger actress is cast to play her in an Oscar-winning biopic and her image is fully rehabilitated?, the answer lies in society's perception of Amber Heard's victimhood. Speaking to, she said, “If Amber can somehow redeem herself – by reinventing herself so that she’s perceived as a more acceptable victim – she might be reevaluated.
She adds, "Historically, we’ve never been very good at having anything other than a very black-and-white, gendered understanding of how domestic and sexual violence works. The woman must be wholly a victim and must demonstrate her victimhood by not participating in anything at all – literally just being a passive recipient of violence.
The notion of imperfect victimhood is something that Sarah Marshall has also been drawn to in her work, telling, “We at some point came to believe that an abuse claim should be believable to us because we should like and feel sympathy for the victim. And in fact, victimhood does not automatically make you cuter, more lovable, or more obviously deserving of help from the public.
