POOR THINGS | In Theaters December 8 | Searchlight Pictures 

I love many of his films. Sometimes I feel like he can be overly cynical just for the sake of it. How would you rate this film using a cynical meter from 1-10?

@@filmingkey Its a very wholesome film compared to his earlier works c:

Me too, it was stunning.

Don't for get Tony McNamara when the plaudits are being rolled out 😀👍

Was it shocking at all? Heard it's more extreme than Antichrist

Same

I’m so excited to see that

Bravo bravo

It’s literally a movie about grown men having sex with a baby

woke garbage. Trump 2024.

@@intrusive-th0t False. It literally isn’t.

I´ll give it a try! You are sitting in your bed with your phone in one hand while petting a gray cat next to you with the other. There you go!

In a shade of chartreuse?

How not? What the hell are you doing??

Did you like it?

'I want to pretend I'm insightful'

It is unbelievably funny. I watched it months ago and I’ve been waiting ever since to watch it again.

​​@@illogical001 Thank You for the Inspiring Mini Review. 🙏 Is it (at all) like The Brand New Testament, The Congress, 3000 Years of Longing, and/or Pedro Morelli's Zoom - in Scope, Vision, and/or perhaps Beauty ?.

@@drumbum3.142 no

@marknewbold2583 How's That?.. . Just Curious. .. Not Agreeing. Nor Disagreeing. (I've Already Scene it...)

Congratulations to Emma Stone❤❤❤💗💗💗💖💖💖🎉🎉🎉

Freak Shows do well with the oscar voting clowns. real Films like Oppenheimer get snubbed. Murca

​@@intrusive-th0t is how to fool the Australian Government

@@intrusive-th0t No, it literally is not. Give it a watch.

@@eddiehartsfield9012 I did 🥱

Wasn't for me. Must be a white girl thing.

@@BoopSnoot I guess, I am white, so I probably will enjoy it. It comes across as a movie with a lot of artistic integrity which some people might describe as weird. I appreciate your feedback.

doing as you please, whenever you please. to whomever you please is so..........Murcan. i blame the marketing/advertising industry as primary reason.

definitely

But it's artsy! Yeah, this is a pedophiles dream. Gross.

Nobody is glossing over that fact. It's a narrative device for presenting an adult character unfamiliar with the subtle intricacies of the world exploring the interactions such a character would have.

@@darryljohnson8516 She has the brain of a literal child. They made the character with a child's brain sexually active. That shouldn't have even been brought up to begin with, it's disgusting and exploitative.

@darryljohnson8516 Interesting. To me it was a "narrative device" that showed how a pedo can have sex without the stigma or guilt because even though it was a literal mind of a child, it was ok because the body was an adult. Only the audience was aware of that fact, so in the film, it was akin to men having sex with a mentally deficient woman. Thankfully the woman "learns rapidly" so her responses moved from a 5-6 year old to the responses of what I would expect from a teenager. This movie and its "subtle intricacies" played out like a pedo's wet dream. All the pleasure, none of the consequences, even when she became a whore. Everyone loved her quirky attitude and her childlike innocence and wonder at the world, BECAUSE SHE WAS A CHILD. The director could have used a literal child, starting at 5 and growing to 12 in his movie and it would have been the same. This film is like a pedo pointing and saying "You see? We're attracted to their minds! The fact they are still trapped in children's bodies is just an unfortunate circumstance!"

@darryljohnson8516 imagine if the movie "Jack" with Robin Williams had him discovering the world through sex with adult women. Graphic, explicit sex, while he was technically 10. This movie was like someone pointing at the screen and saying "You see that? We love the MIND of a child! The fact they aren't developed is just an unfortunate circumstance!" The film showed us how that would work by taking away the consequence. The director could have taken Emma Stone out of the role and cast a 12 year old and that character would have been the same, except he would be demonized.

why not diamond globe? ⁉❓

@@bulkathos5207 if that was a thing, it would definitely win

I got the same vibe!

We have Green Goblin meet Hulk & Gwen Stacy all the four actors of Hulk & Gwen met Green Goblin For Green Goblin & Hulk Finding Nemo Motherless Brooklyn Poor Things For Green Goblin & Gwen Manderlay Poor Things

So a paradigm shift

Had they all fallen asleep?

We were going to sit around but my friend was hungry. I wanted an eclair after that movie.

Suzy Bemba

Yep. You’re the only one.

we have enough of british actors speaking with u.s. accent

I was thinking more on along the lines of a disabled adult but still weird lol

This is twisted and sickening.

The body is from a dead pregnant woman and the brain is of her baby I’m still going to watch it though because I don’t think it’s just about her having sex, there’s much more to it

So of all the scenarios one could concoct ...the best we have is that she is having sex....w the bain capacity of a baby....and everyone is ok w that? If you dont recognize what an utterly sick subject matter that is..well...we are doomed. We need to call that out and remove those scenes. Come on guys !! This is coming from me...a person who is quite liberal ! My god what the hell are we thinking ?!?!?!?

No, only for like the first 10 minutes. The brain grows quickly to match the body. Dafoe’s character mentions it in the trailer.

It is rated R!

@@JohnnyCatFitz yes I know, but still. It's bazillions of sex scenes ...we didn't know she'd be a prostitute

the script telling her, its part of her story

The fact that you're going on about how surprised you are that they came close to understanding most of it AND that they are truly brilliant, the only mitigating factors being English as a second language and being a teenager, is... something. Maybe re-assess your approach.

why are you sitting down to watch a film with 'an embarrasing ammount of sex in it' with a child who isnt your own. You sound so creepy

Pregnant suicide victim is renimated with the brain of her unborn baby by a Doctor Frankenstein-like character and proceeds to mentally grow into her adult body by discovering the ways of the world and ends up an intellectually liberated whore. I loved it by the way.

What if all our mental development happened in a fully developed body

@@labguru7628 whore is not the word these days
