I generally like Yorgos Lanthimos films, but I hope this one can avoid some of the uncomfortable implications of Poor Things.
Dog Tooth was also pretty uncomfortable viewing!
Idk I found Poor Things challenging but ultimately it’s supposed to be a piece of art as opposed to like a moral authority on human sexuality. The setup is so clearly outlandish that it’s hard to claim it has an opinion on real world sex issues.
Some of the scenes were a bit sexploitation-y though, like there was a definite male gaze aspect to the direction. I’m more sympathetic to the description of it being crass or a bit tasteless in some places as opposed to describing it as morally problematic.
