Poor Things (2023) dir. Yorgos Lanthimos

Yesterday I watched this movie for the first time, and tonight it won Oscars for the best actress (Emma Stone), production design (Shona Heath, Zsuzsa Mihalek, James Price), makeup and hairstyling (Mark Coulier, Nadia Stacey, Josh Weston), and costume design (Holly Waddington). Such a premonition!

I'll leave an excerpt from a great review by Jakub Popielecki here:

Someone asked whether Lanthimos made a feminist or misogynist film. The sequence when Bella emancipates herself in a brothel, reading socialist leaflets between visits to subsequent clients, can be understood in two ways. It's either a manifesto of proudly taking control of one's sexuality - or a male prostitution fantasy, an excuse to undress Emma Stone in front of the camera. I would rather choose the first option. Let us remember: "Poor creatures" are Lanthimos's "Frankenstein".

Poor Things Movie Review Emma Stone Shines Bright

Emma Stone: ‘Poor Things’ Movie Review Emma Stone can sing and move, yet in the absurdist “Poor Things” she’s a cheerful sight immaturely slamming utensils against a supper table, wolfing down tarts, and finding sweat-soaked lewd enthusiasm in a French bordello. The Oscar-winning entertainer reteams with “The Number One” chief Yorgos Lanthimos for this unusually awesome Victorian-period…

Poor Things (2023) posters are works of art

Despite the fact that Poor Things won four Oscars tonight (post about it here), I would like to appreciate one more extraordinary element of this production - the posters.

The designs are the work of Athens-based graphic designer Vasilis Marmatakis. He's been a regular collaborator of Lanthimos's designing posters for The Lobster, Dogtooth and The Favourite among others, and his work always has an intelligent but eye-catching approach. Unlike the floating head posters many studios tend to insist on, these designs take a more impressionistic approach to communicating films' themes. And they elicit intrigue through beautiful and unique compositions rather than throwing everything on the page.

[thisismynamenowxpoetry]

I don't like to be alone

But I sat alone on my bed,

Not for hours on end,

Just for long enough

That I was hugging you

And you were hugging me

And there were others around

But we were in our own little world

Together

And you said you'd stay

You said you'd stay for as long as I let you

And I hope I let myself for longer than I thought

Because I'm going to see you tonight,

I'm going to see you on a cinema screen

And you don't know me

But we have the same marks on our skin

And it's almost like I can touch you

I know I know

I've filled my mind up with fiction and fantasy

Because my mind is good at convincing me of anything

And you're the only thing that seems to be the exception

I'll stay

Worrying that you'll leave

And my words will become meaningless

But I don't know how true that is

All I know

Is I'm going to see you

And you won't see me

But I'll see you

And I'll go home that night

And I'll stay wrapped in the blanket I try to pull over me daily

Because it feels nice

It feels nice, you know?

It feels really, really nice

So maybe I'm delusional

But you'll see these one day

And you won't call me deranged

And maybe I'll sit alone then

But how would I be alone?

You're there

And you're always there

So I won't twist it anymore

I'll sit here

And watch the minutes tick down

Before I sit there

And look up

And think

"I'm so glad the universe chose us"

~ what would I be without her?
