An absolutely outstanding sapphic 'period drama', which completely subverts our expectations of the 'genre'. 3 award-worthy performances. Genius choices by Lanthimos, creating such a stylised, visually beautiful masterpiece with fantastic costumes! @the_favourite #TheFavourite https://t.co/iYdqkJHTSo

Pro tip: maybe don’t take your 91-year old grandmother to see The Favourite - it’s not her kind of period drama

The Favourite is easily one of the weirdest, most delightfully queer movies I have ever seen

I'm not too sure what I was expecting when watching The Favourite but it is one of the weirdest, funniest films I've seen it in a long time. Highly recommend seeing it.

Went to see The Favourite at the cinema a few days ago, not what I expected at all but hilarious and great performances by Olivia Coleman, Rachel Weiss and Emma Stone (hence all the awards) Recommend ???

"Must the duck be here!?"
"Did you just look at me? Look at me! HOW DARE YOUUU"
#TheFavourite hmm... what a bizarre, punky, entertaining farce. Three stellar lead performances and a witty script keep this film fresh pic.twitter.com/A1fJ99w9V9

The favourite was the queer movie I didn't know I needed

“The Favourite” review: a much darker film than I was expecting from the trailers and with a much bleaker ending... CLAAAAAASS dismissal of men and elevation of female relationships. Colman’s grossness as Queen Anne is awe-inspiring tbh. #TheFavourite

to the surprise of nobody I extremely loved The Favourite - it's a queer, surreal and filthy historical romp and I want to see it a million more times
