The Favourite 2018

I should probably preface this with the fact that I'm not traditionally a fan of Yorgos Lanthimos movies. Neither The Lobster nor The Killing of a Sacred Deer made much of a positive impact on me.

That having been said,y this is significantly more accessibly than his past movies - perhaps because it's not his script. The direction, cinematography, and cast are amazing.

The movie is very funny, but I ultimately walked away from it with the feeling that I was supposed to grasp some deeper meaning... and I just didn't. Perhaps that's a commentary on the frivolity of the Royal Court - or it just means I'm scoring this 7/10 because I didn't get the parts that would make it a 10/10.
