Go watch The Favourite

I don’t have much to say here except that I unreservedly recommend The Favourite and it is just as good as I was hoping. So queer, so no-nonsense about its historical setting, so visceral and physical and brutal—but not in the usual way, and not as a euphemism for misogynist. Rachel Weisz is delightful and toppy and much hotter than I thought she could be. I neeeeed fanfic on this one, even though usually with a movie this good I don’t, because I have a bottomless appetite for butch Rachel Weisz grabbing her queen by the throat as a prelude to jealous sex. I could read a lot of fanfic about them, is what I’m saying.
