Solid Biopic

Rating: 7/10 (25 January 2019)

THE FAVOURITE is a new historical drama about a bunch of people who died a long time ago. It's a period in time that I tend to find rather boring when depicted in film, I must admit. However, they did a decent job here. The story and the performances are solid.
I only chose to watch this movie because I am a fan of the director. While I must say that this is not as good as his previous films (THE LOBSTER and DOGTOOTH, to name a few) I think that's because he wrote those ones and this one was written by somebody else. It's still a solid film though and a good watch. Not nearly as boring as a lot of other biopics I've seen. Recommend.
