The Favourite is one of the most acclaimed movies of last year, receiving multiple nominations at dozens of awards shows and winning a whole bunch of them (2nd most awarded film of 2018, behind Roma). Being a fan of Yorgos Lanthimosā€™ style, I couldnā€™t be happier for him, and I was now even more excited to watch what he produced and directed. This movie is a classic example of an Oscarsā€™ tradition of sorts. A lot of audience members make their mission to watch every Best Picture nominee before the big night, and thereā€™s always one film that people fail to grasp on why did it get so much praise? Why are critics all around the world absolutely loving what audiences perceive as an ā€œokayā€ time at the theater, but which contains a long, weird and maybe even dull (for some) story?

Well, first of all, this is technically a masterpiece. I mean, every single technical aspect is worthy of recognition. The production and set design are gorgeously eyegasmic. The score is unusual for a period piece like this, but it weirdly works, as it continuously elevates the tension between the three main characters and helps the story flow with an always conspicuous, treacherous feeling. Even the cinematography and the plays with candlelight offer some pretty neat scenes. However, and prepare to be surprised, the costume design steals the show from all the other achievements. This is coming from a guy who has utterly no interest in this particular matter and who rarely talks about it, so Iā€™m as surprised as you are.

Itā€™s not due to the costumes being pretty or appropriate to the time period. Almost every movie that tackles these times nail the costume design, but only a few can tell a character arc through it. Even less are capable of embodying the whole screenplay like this Oscar-bait does. Our protagonists have distinct journeys, but their ends all have similarities. One way of understanding the story is through what they wear, which seamlessly represent the arc that each character takes to get where they eventually end up. These layers of storytelling keep the film intriguing, but Lanthimosā€™ uncommon methods plus McNamara and Davisā€™ script will displease some audience members.

The Favourite is that movie that audiences are going to be perplexed about why do critics adore it. Thereā€™s no secret, really. Audience members donā€™t care about the technical part of films. They couldnā€™t care less about costume design, cinematography, score or how the screenplay is written. They want to be entertained and have a good time at the theater, so I find reasonable if people leave a bit disappointed with one of the most critically acclaimed movies of 2018. Lanthimos doesnā€™t deliver formulaic stories, and he certainly doesnā€™t film them in a regular fashion, so I firmly believe the general public isnā€™t really going to enjoy this one. His unique style brings a very different tone, pace and filming techniques that people arenā€™t used to experiencing. Fortunately, thereā€™s more than just technical attributes to this film. Three magnificent and powerful performances from Olivia Colman, Emma Stone, and Rachel Weisz, carry the whole thing to safe harbor.

These three actresses deserve every single nomination they got so far. Colman delivers both a hilarious and emotionally heavy display, as Anne. An incredibly fragile Queen with a shockingly traumatic past, whose love and affection is being fought for between Abigail and Sarah. Most of the laughs this movie gives are through Anne and her petty behavior towards her servants. Colman delivers her body and soul to her role, adding yet another fantastic performance to her splendid career. Weisz is just flawless. Sarahā€˜s arc is Abigailā€˜s opposite in almost every way, and Rachel is remarkably sharp. She doesnā€™t really have a definite shining moment like Stone or Colman have, but itā€™s a consistent and robust display from an actress who needed a return to the spotlight.

Nevertheless, itā€™s Emma Stone who shines through with an unbelievable range of emotions and expressions. Her performance in La La Land is great, but as Abigail she is outstanding! She handles her characterā€™s personality change with an impeccable transition regarding her acting and the only reason why sheā€™s probably not getting the Oscar win, is due to the campaign supporting Regina King (If Beale Street Could Talk). Abigail is the character that moves the plot forward by trying to steal Sarahā€˜s place near the Queen. Her intelligent and manipulative moves are extremely captivating, as well as her will to gain Anneā€˜s love.

Yorgos Lanthimos knows his craft and his weird yet unparalleled style is something that will surely deliver even more divisive and confusing films in the future. From the camera angles to his methods of storytelling, heā€™s one hell of a director-writer-producer! Technically, The Favourite is undoubtedly one of the best movies of the last year. The impressive production and set design plus the addictive score definitely raise the film, but the costume design tells a whole story through what the characters dress during the whole runtime. The screenplay is remarkably-written, filled with complex dialogues and several twists and turns, which lead our characters through eventful arcs.

Olivia Colman and Rachel Weisz deliver compelling performances, but Emma Stone is in another level. Her range is mind-boggling, and she carries a big responsibility by portraying the character who changes the whole story. Nevertheless, the movie feels a bit too long, and the story drops its interest levels during the transition from the second to the third act. Basically, Iā€™ll put it like this: if youā€™re just a regular audience member who only goes to the theater to eat popcorn while being entertained, The Favourite isnā€™t going to make you eat your whole bucket; if you watch films through a more in-depth look, then youā€™ll be as marveled as I was by the end of it.

Review By: MSB

Hugely entertaining film from start to finish, with amazing performances from the three lead women. Emma Stone proves that once again she’s not just a pretty face as the conniving and troubled Abigail, Rachel Weisz is always on form as the controlling and vindictive Sarah and Olivia Coleman deserved the Oscar as the childish and sickly Queen Anne. Nicholas Hoult’s foppish rogue Harley steals every scene he is in.

Yorgos Lanthimos once again has made a beautifully shot film using mostly natural light. I can’t overstate that this film looks gorgeous. Many times over I thought of Barry Lyndon, but with tonnes of humour, foul language, and no Ryan O’Neal to destroy the soul of the film.

I originally gave this 9/10 because I didn’t like the use of fish-eye lens, but I couldn’t stop thinking of how much I enjoyed it so I bumped it up to 10.

Best film I have seen in a very long time.

A charmingly quirky film
Rachel Weisz and Emma Stone are both brilliantly witty and Colman’s performance is nothing less but sublime. The three leads are able to hold a fascinating performance that is difficult to achieve. Yorgos Lanthimos retains a pessimistic view of human nature but all goes down with a touch of British glam, as he pushes the idea of the capricious queen through the far reaches of comedy and almost into tragedy. With its brilliant and dramatic script, the sharp dialogues, the great performances, the wonderful production design contributions and a beautiful cinematography, may be for more open-minded audiences, but it’s such a charmingly quirky film and is my front-runner for the Best Picture Oscar. nikisreviews.gr

What a slow and odd movie
I had looked forward to seeing this for well over a year. Now that I’ve seen it, I can clearly see that my original intention was misguided. This was a total waste of time…
