The film that is cleaning up at the awards ceremonies. Has anyone else seen it? I have to temper this with the fact that costume dramas are not really my thing but that wasn't the problem. Parts of it are just weird, and not in a good way. A stomped bunny rabbit which I am not happy with in any circumstances and an implied scene where the Emma Stone character appears to finger blast her majesty. Anything for a bit of perversion normally goes with me but not in this instance, believe me it's not done in any erotic way. Probably one of my least enjoyable cinema experiences, excruciating in fact

Be good to hear others views

There’s been a lot of brouhaha about the lesbo scenes but TBH I am more interested in the fact that it’s three really good actors and, from my interest in history, a rocking horse shit rare cinematic depiction of Queen Anne (who most people only associate with furniture). The reign of the last Stuart monarch was an intriguing period in European history - so our A level history teacher tried to impress upon us all those years ago.

No. They didn’t exist back then.

I don't know about lesbians but the Emma Stone character reaches up under the queens night dress and fingers her to a noisy orgasm. You are left thinking she did it to curry approval from the Queen rather than for her own sexual gratification and the queen simply needed the sexual release since no man would give it to her since she is pug ugly and her legs are rotting away with chronic gout. I apologise for that rather unvarnished explanation but that's the kind of film it is. Any token men in the film are portrayed as being quite ridiculous, coiffured dandies looking like they have just stumbled out of New Romantic revival concert. Frankly it's f*cking ridiculous. I'm fine with ridiculous if it's fun but it's just miserable and daft.

It's flawed from a historical accuracy point of view, at times entertaining but mostly it's just odd... the acting was very good though. I read a review where the local WI had gone to see it on a bus trip and were horrified.

Don’t go and watch this film without watching The Lobster it Killing of a Sacred Deer. If you’re not a film buff and don’t know of Yorgos’ style you might be a bit disappointed.

I can only tell you what I saw, there is crude sex portrayed between women but no nudity, I was left thinking it was an arrangement of mutual convenience rather than between real lesbians. Put it like this, fans of hot lezzers will be sorely disappointed as should anyone forced to endure this preposterous movie!

I was talking to Mrs RBO about the film and this thread and we concluded that it's a chick flick and that it need not bother blokes.
