In early 18th-century England, the court of Queen Anne (Olivia Colman) is a treacherous playground of ambition, manipulation, and desire. The rivalry between the two courtiers (Rachel Weisz and Emma Stone) ignites a ruthless battle of wit, charm, and cunning. Lanthimos delivers sharp satire and dark humor, wrapped in lush period imagery, stretching the conventions of the costume drama to the brink—almost as if he’s creating a new genre. Every glance, whisper, and gesture is laden with intrigue and power struggles. With Colman’s Oscar-winning performance, The Favourite is a razor-sharp, visually stunning tale of love, rivalry, and survival in the corridors of power.
