The Favourite (2018)
Manage episode 327615415 series 3327363
This week, Abigail, Alice, and Helen watched Yorgos Lanthimos' The Favourite (2018), a gorgeous period piece set circa 1711 that explores the relationship between Queen Anne, Sarah Churchill, and Abigail Masham. We talk about adaptation, visual coherence, and the way that playing with anachronism while having a strong sense of tone is maybe the best way to make a movie set in the past.
Historical Friction is a podcast about storytelling, pop culture, the past, and why we reenact it.
