An earthy and caustic representation of historical events – real and rumoured – during the eighteenth-century reign of Queen Anne, Yorgos Lanthimos' dark comedy gleefully up-ends period-drama tropes in its depiction of the backroom machinations and sexual intrigues that play out between its female protagonists. While women are very much at the centre of the film, however, the limitations imposed by their male-dominated surroundings remain ever-present, as Joanna Di Mattia contends.
