Poor Things
like Yorgos Lanthimos really said “no rules, just vibes” and turned it into something DEEPLY PHILOSOPHICAL
Emma Stone as bella is CRAZY GOOD. she BECAME curiosity itself. watching her is like watching a human experience life for the FIRST time, free from conditioning, free from shame. it lowkey feels like a journey toward ENLIGHTENMENT in her own chaotic way
bella moves through the world without attachment to social rules, almost like rejecting ILLUSION and EGO. she questions everything, desires everything, learns through experience, and slowly understands what it means to be HUMAN. it’s giving… life is SUFFERING, but also DISCOVERY
the visuals are a full FEVER DREAM, super SURREAL and INTENTIONAL, like stepping into a mind that hasn’t been shaped by society yet. everything feels NEW, almost like seeing the world without filters
it’s FUNNY, UNCOMFORTABLE, and sometimes DISTURBING, but that’s the point. it forces you to confront desire, control, and identity. like… are we truly free, or just shaped by what we’re taught to believe?
in a weird way, bella’s journey feels like breaking free from ATTACHMENT and expectation, choosing her own path no matter how chaotic it looks
def NOT for everyone, but if you GET IT, you GET IT. this is ART, this is CINEMA, this is a whole EXISTENTIAL EXPERIENCE
