The Favourite

realstibby shared a tip "Pride Day 17: Man, I'm just not sure about this one. Not because I think this is a bad movie, I think this is a great movie but it is neither uplifting nor educational, not particularly gay-centric. The Favourite is a movie in which three terrible women struggle for power. And they mostly do it through sex and intimacy. The queen enjoys sex with women and regardless of whether the other two do or not they enjoy the power that being near the queen grants them. This is a Yorgos Lanthimos movie and not the first one that casually addresses issues if non-straight sexuality although this one a bit more directly (I'm saving my thoughts on The Lobster in case I end up talking about that movie) but to say "romance" has any part here would be, I think, inaccurate."

casey_8468 shared a tip "Very unique. Definitely not a happy feel-good movie- the ending was interesting, to say the least. I'd recommend it if you're looking for something out of the ordinary."

inutrasha shared a tip "Oh my god, easily one of my favourite pieces of wlw media. It's so dark and twisty, just so so much fun the entire time. If you want a tongue in cheek dramedy this is it"

siana_danleb shared a tip "This is a really strange movie. Its clearly really special you have to love real movie and have a deeper understanding of what it means !"

ryan_dean_schoening shared a tip "Cannot recommend this movie enough. The writing is perfection, the performances are delightful, and Olivia Coleman is breathtaking."

krystle_fields shared a tip "It reminded me of like a witty English play the music the acting the drama. I actually saw part of this movie during an appointment and enjoyed it so much I had to go home and watch it fully."
