Poor Things

Opens Dec 14
New Release
    Part of
  • BAM Film 2023
Directed by Yorgos Lanthimos
With Emma Stone, Mark Ruffalo, Willem Dafoe, Ramy Youssef

From the singular mind of Yorgos Lanthimos (Dogtooth, The Favourite, The Lobster) comes the incredible tale and fantastical evolution of Bella Baxter (Stone), a young woman brought back to life by a brilliant, unorthodox scientist (Dafoe). Eager to understand the world, Bella runs off with a slick and debauched lawyer (Ruffalo) on a whirlwind adventure across continents. Winner of the Golden Lion at the 2023 Venice International Film Festival, this dark comedy marks another completely original, visually arresting entry into Lanthimos’ oeuvre of absurdist triumphs.
