Poor Things

an awe-striking visual feast that satisfies the eyes, tantalizes the loins, and feeds the soul. ★★★★★ ” Mashable

OUR OSCAR TIP! Bella Baxter (played gloriously by Emma Stone) is brought back to life by the brilliant and unorthodox scientist Dr. Godwin Baxter. Under Baxter’s protection, Bella is eager to learn. Hungry for the worldliness she is lacking, Bella runs off with Duncan Wedderburn, a slick and debauched lawyer, on a whirlwind adventure across the continents. Free from the prejudices of her times, Bella grows steadfast in her purpose to stand for equality and liberation.

This a riotous, quirky & very creative black comedy acerbically written by Tony McNamara (The Favourite, The Great) & directed by Yorgos Lanthimos.

Also starring MARK RUFFALO, WILLEM DAFOE, RAMY YOUSSEF AND JERROD CARMICHAEL.
