It reminded me of a Peter Greenaway movie with the set design and vibrant colors. Agree the sex and nudity never felt exploitive.
I’m glad I watched it and think Emma Stone totally deserved the Oscar, but I’ll never watch it again, I don’t think.

Sorta watching it now. Posting and reading DU, but it's on the TV. Really good cast and a fantasmical storyline. OAITW r.2.0 Mar 2024 #9
