Yes, Yorgos Lanthimos, Fang there was a discovery Lobster calling for attention The Killing of a Sacred Deer hard pipe y Favorite industry recognition, Poor things leave the exaggeration aside. Something that curiously leads him to initiation. With more mistakes than made, but finally confirming his style. This new film, which won the top prize at the Venice Film Festival, seems to push its boundaries. It’s funny, absurd and might shock most people. The type of cinema that Lanthimos creates is not for a moment effective, but he has such a noticeable (and noble) authority that it is impossible not to recognize good work.
Based on the novel of the same name by Alasdair Gray. Poor things Let’s follow the birth and growth of Bella Bexstar. (Emma Stone) is a woman whom Dr. Godwin Baxter (Willem Dafoe) revives with his methods. frankensteinians. Without an embargo, thousands of people are worth a lot. Bella, who is just learning to walk and talk, spends her days locked in her home (a black and white world) to avoid contact with society. An adult with a small brain. The doctor decides to bring a young student (Rami Youssef) home to look at his growth. They fall in love with her and decide to compromise. No embargo, place of unsuccessful ascent outside, Bella discovers sexual pleasure. This robs you of the opportunity to open your mind and jaws to experience the world.

En Poor thingsYorgos Lanthimos continues to show the men of the world. Saddle on carrera. However, I am now using the story to give it some twist and stop its connection from taking over a more compassionate and empathetic humanity. Almost a hopeful way out of the room with a happy ending. Is this the new Lanthimos? More contemplative, of course. But this movie is really cool. Given that they end after 30 minutes (minimum), the sound is always present; humor is always looking for moments; clothing and production design always leave a mark on the memory; photography always plays with your lenses. On the contrary, so much of the time ends in darkness, but if the story were told differently, it would not be Lanthimos’ work.
Emma Stone, logically, is the heart of this film. Going through all stages of human existence and in each of them he creates a virtuoso work. End enfrentado un majority, but exaggerated. It’s not just acting like a child and punishing the audience with hats. It’s all about the motor and tonal work, which really dominates. En La la land you can dance very well, but this Poor things Here he shows great versatility. Also, in addition to your wonderful work overall, you have a talent for choosing this paper. Bella is a question about a character from the pastBut not only because she wins the hearts of the audience from the first moment, but because she is a figure who carries the full weight of feminism in the first place. This doesn’t apply to anything. Ellie, Emma Stone got a lot of points.

Satellites also keep the line at a high level. Sakando a Christopher Abbott which looks small and is a fairly forgettable part of the film, Ramy Youssef this is the bread of the gods, Margaret Qualley He has a pleasant appearance. Willem Dafoe As we get used to it, we won’t let you down. The surprise of this belt, however, is Mark Ruffalo. Nadi doubts her ability to play the role of an actress, but, as usual, spent several months with her. Robert Downey Jr and Oppenheimer, from real taste to Marvel actors capable of playing challenging roles. Ruffalo is the engine of the story for a moment, and there’s a great comic twist to it. With the cards being played, it’s entirely possible that Iron Man and the Hulk will compete, but this time for the department’s Best Actor Oscar. Speaking of Oscars, let’s decide that it’s quite possible that Poor things the term is a protagonist in many categories. As some experts on the topic say: “This year’s Mad Max.”
