The 2024 awards season is almost coming to an end, with the Oscars taking place on March 10. And one of the most nominated movies is “Poor Things,” starring Emma Stone and directed by Yorgo Lanthimos. The film will compete for 11 statuettes at the Academy Awards, and Stone is one of the frontrunners (alongside Killers of the Flowers Moon’s Lily Gladstone) to clinch Best Actress.

The movie was written by Tony McNamara based on the 1992 book by Alasdair Gray. It tells the story of Bella Baxter (played by Stone), a young woman in Victorian London who, after attempting to take her life, undergoes a brain transplant and goes on a journey to discover herself.
