Anora

what a rollercoaster… i absolutely loved this movie from start to finish! the opening credits had me hooked IMMEDIATELY, i loved seeing all the beautiful women doing what they do best, paired with an awesome opening song, atmosphere, and introduction to Anora. i liked seeing Anora be in complete control of herself and the environment she’s in, up until she’s blinded by the lavish and energetic lifestyle that Vanya has to offer her. i would be so infatuated with anyone that provides me with such fascinating and exciting experiences, so i absolutely understand why Anora put up with all the bullshit she was put through up until the very end. truly is a cinderella story gone terribly wrong.  Mikey Madison absolutely KILLS it. she immerses herself completely into the role of Anora, and approaches the job of being a stripper with such an open mind and a sincere heart and i respect her so much for it. i know it wasn’t easy learning all the pole moves and floor work! its also so funny seeing how different her own personality is compared to Anora. everyone else is this movie are also fantastic! shoutout to Yura Borisov for being such a perfect foil to all the characters and atmosphere in this movie.  Anora is one of my new favorites, and i cant wait to see what Mikey Madison does next ❤️
