Go watch The Favourite

[allheadybooks]

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.

that movie!!! every time Rachel Weisz would come onscreen in her ridiculously gay shooting outfit I would be like "surely this is the last time we will be graced with this vision, it is too gay for this world, too pure" and then it would show up again. Spectacular.
