POOR THINGS

GBR 2023. dir: Yorgos Lanthimos. D: Emma Stone, Willem Dafoe, Mark Ruffalo, Ramy Youssef, Hanna Schygulla. 141 min. DF. FSK: 16

Dr. Godwin Baxter is a scientist - he assembles living beings. For example Bella, his self-made daughter, a small child in an adult body. But Bella learns eagerly, goes through puberty, then grows up, cuts herself off and runs away with the charmingly disreputable Duncan Wedderburn on a journey through the continents.
Yorgos Lanthimos' fabulous Frankenstein story about the search for freedom, desire and self-determination is one of the best films of recent times: an outstanding cast - especially Emma Stone - acts in a Victorian fantasy world, guided by Lanthimos' refined, imaginative, exuberant production design. Golden Lion in Venice and four Oscars!
