In early 18th-century England, a frail Queen Anne (Olivia Colman) occupies the throne, and her closest friend, Lady Sarah (Rachel Weisz), governs the country while tending to Anne’s health. When new servant Abigail (Emma Stone) arrives, Sarah takes Abigail under her wing as she cunningly schemes to return to her aristocratic roots, setting off an outrageous rivalry to become the Queen’s favourite.

Reviews

Loud and Clear Reviews

Serena Seghedoni

Yorgos Lanthimos defies expectations and gives us a slow-burning analysis of politics and power dynamics that might be set in the 18th Century but couldn’t be more relevant to our day and age.

Technically, The Favourite is undoubtedly one of the best movies of 2018. The impressive production and set design plus the addictive score definitely elevate the film, but the costume design tells a whole story through what the characters wear.

The Favourite is yet another triumph from one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary cinema.

Olivia Coleman, Rachel Weisz and Emma Stone bring the kind of acting calibre you expect to this Yorgos Lanthimos misadventure.

Robbie Ryan's lens captures the world's excesses with rhythm and pleasant malice - a world that's simultaneously funny, grotesque, decadent, and perverse. [Full review in Spanish]
