Poor Things BTS Featurette Spotlights The Stunning Costumes
Searchlight has released a new behind-the-scenes featurette that spotlights Holly Waddington's award-nominated costume designs for Poor Things.
Article Summary
- Searchlight unveils a BTS featurette highlighting Holly Waddington's costume designs.
- Emma Stone's performance in Poor Things garners attention aside from the exquisite costumes.
- The featurette celebrates both male and female fashion, a nod to Victorian uniqueness.
- Poor Things release details: Venice Film Festival premiere and theatrical rollout dates.
The awards season has a lot of good movies this year, but Poor Things is absolutely one of the better entries on nearly every level. Many people will be focused on Emma Stone's performance, and with good reason: she is fantastic in this role, but the costumes from Holly Waddington cannot be ignored. They are Victorian while also being unique, which describes the film almost perfectly. The film looks like you can put a pin on what exactly it is or what the setting or time period is supposed to be, but there are details that change things and make it look just a little bit off or different. Searchlight Pictures has released a new behind-the-scenes featurette focusing on the costumes, and it's not just spotlighting the stunning dresses but also the suits that the male characters get to wear.
Men often get the short end of the stick when it comes to fashion [look at what 85% of men wear to the Meta Gala], so it's good to see that they were taken into consideration just as much as the women in Poor Things.
Poor Things: Summary, Cast List, Release Date
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.
Poor Things, directed by Yorgos Lanthimos, stars Emma Stone, Mark Ruffalo, Willem Dafoe, Ramy Youssef, Jerrod Carmichael, and Christopher Abbott. It will premiere at the Venice Film Festival on September 1st, will be released in select theaters on December 8th, and will be released in theaters everywhere on December 22nd.
