Description

Christian and Devin review Poor Things. From filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos and producer Emma Stone comes the incredible tale and fantastical evolution of Bella Baxter (Stone), a young woman brought back to life by the brilliant and unorthodox scientist Dr. Godwin Baxter (Willem Dafoe). Under Baxter's protection, Bella is eager to learn. Hungry for the worldliness she is lacking, Bella runs off with Duncan Wedderburn (Mark Ruffalo), a slick and debauched lawyer, on a whirlwind adventure across the continents. Free from the prejudices of her times, Bella grows steadfast in her purpose to stand for equality and liberation.TOPICS IN THIS EPISODE:Start / Housekeeping (00:18)Poor Things Review (04:46)Final Thoughts and Ratings (22:12)Coming Up Next / Closing (25:20)'POOR THINGS' GRADES: Christian: 90/100Devin: 87/100Overall  Score: 88.5/100Contact Film Optix Rate and Review us on Apple Podcast and Spotify on your podcast platform of choice!
