“Poor Things” was one of the big winners at the 2024 Oscars, picking up four awards in addition to giving its star Emma Stone her second Oscar statuette.
Although Giorgos Lanthimos’ film was released in 2023, its triumph on Hollywood’s big night ensures that interest in it will re-emerge, so we’ll tell you where you can see it.
“Poor Things” earned Emma Stone her second Oscar
The film was the second most awarded film at the 96th Academy Awards, winning in four categories: Best Actress, Best Production Design, Best Costume Design, and Best Makeup and Costume Design.
Thanks to her performance as Bella Baxter, Emma Stone won the second Oscar of her career, a milestone that, incidentally, gave her entry into the select group of actresses who have won more than one of these awards before the age of 35 .
It should be remembered that on ‘Poor Creatures’, Stone also served as producer.
Where to watch the movie “Poor Things”?
The award-winning film can still be found in theaters in Mexico, although in the United States and other parts of the world, it was released in theaters last December.
The good news is that you can also enjoy streaming. As of last March 7, Hulu (United States) included it in its catalog, while Mexican fans will be able to watch it through the Star+ platform (a subsidiary of Disney+) starting March 20.
Bella Baxter is Emma Stone’s ‘favorite character’
On the night of March 10, it was more than clear that Emma Stone’s performance in ‘Poor Things’ had the movie pundits spellbound. However, the role of Bella Baxter also holds a special place in the heart of the actress. This was revealed in an interview on “Jake’s Takes” last December: “Bella is my favorite character in life.”
“I love every aspect of it. The idea of a woman starting from scratch and falling in love with all the things that happen in life: the good and the bad. That she’s so fascinated by everything and thirsty for experiences, I think she was really inspiring,” she added in an interview with CNN.
In the conversation, he also revealed that the preparation for the role took longer than some fans imagine: it took 5 years (as of 2018 George Lanthimos had talked about the possibility of making the film).
Plus, there was the challenge of playing a woman with the brain of a baby: “There aren’t many women [así] as far as I know,” he said in an interview with Aframe.
In that sense, the role required three weeks of rehearsals with the cameras rolling and the entire cast on stage and in costume, he told various media outlets.
