The Favourite
We went to see The Favourite - matinee at the Everyman. It's every bit as good as everyone said it was....
It's interesting that this takes the exact same subject matter (ie the relationship between Sarah Churchill and Queen Anne) as the play Queen Anne that Elaine and I saw at the Haymarket in 2017 - with a marked difference in tone and thus also popularity. The film is truly original and witty; it turns the potentially dry material into a comedy - albeit a very dark one.... faction... but at its best.
