Lanthimos' deliciously twisted black comedy returns, screening from real 35mm film!
Based on the 1992 novel of the same name and inspired by Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, Emma Stone is on brilliant form as Bella Baxter, a Victorian woman who is resurrected by a scientist.
Dismayed to find polite society puts strict limitations on women’s behaviour, Bella set off with a debauched lawyer (Mark Ruffalo, having the time of his life) on a hedonistic journey to experience anything and anyone she wants.
Bawdy, filthy, and very funny.
Winner of 5 BAFTAs and 4 Academy Awards, including Best Actress.
