Very well done. Hopefully there will be an upcoming sequel. Even if it takes three or four years or so. I am eager to see what the next step in the life of all these people is going to be. Or, maybe, to see what led up to these kind of life styles to begin with. Rather than us assuming that we already know.
If you can get past the foul language, excessive sex scenes, and violence, the film paints a compelling picture of a sad (though humorous in a twisted kind of way) and far-too-common a reality; nicely juxtaposing the psychoses prevalent at both extremes of any severely class based society in terms of the impact on its members; and subtly hitting the nail on the head in terms of its implicit global economic analysis. Bravo!

| Summary | Contemporary cinema's foremost chronicler of American dreamers and schemers hustling on the margins of capitalist promise, Sean Baker, reaches new heights of mastery with this audacious anti Cinderella story a whirlwind neorealist screwball comedy with an aching heart. In an electric, star-is-born performance, Mikey Madison soars as Anora, an enterprising, ferociously foulmouthed Brooklyn erotic dancer and sex worker whose Prince Not-So-Charming comes along in the form of a Russian oligarch's wild-child son. |
