194. Poor Things (2023) & The Killing of a Sacred Deer (2017)
This week, we discuss two films from acclaimed director Yorgos Lanthimos.
The first is Poor Things (2023), written by Tony McNamara and based on the 1992 novel by Alasdair Gray. It follows Emma Stone as Bella Baxter, a young woman in Victorian London who is brought back to life via brain transplant.
The second is The Killing of a Sacred Deer (2017), which follows a cardiac surgeon, played by Colin Farrell, who introduces his family to a teenage boy with a connection to his past, after which they mysteriously begin to fall ill.
