She takes her career to the next level in this steampunk-futurist Victorian tale adapted from Alasdair Gray by absurdist virtuoso Yorgos Lanthimos; she plays Bella, a young woman raised from the dead in a Frankensteinian experiment, who has a bizarre series of sexual adventures.
Alexander Payne is a Hollywood director capable of preserving the gritty, organically grown cinema of the 1970s, and his new comedy stays true to the values of Ashby, Rafelson, Altman et al. Paul Giamatti plays a grumpy boarding school teacher who finds himself having to babysit the “holdovers” during the Christmas vacation; that is, the kids who can’t go home.
