    Refreshing to see how genuine Mark Ruffalo is opening up about his self doubts and insecurities in a job and even more comforting seeing Willem encouraging and supporting him.

    I wish someone would interview the composer. The music is such a huge part of this movie.
  • @user-jl8yn7og7b
    I love how in film, Willem Dafoe has played some of the most intense characters every created, but in every interview he is joy personified.
  • @Missjunebugfreak
    Emma Stone's performance in Poor Things is my favorite of the year. She made me adore Bella Baxter and feel every emotion the character was experiencing. It's easily her best work so far.
  • @xpkareem
    Ruffalo deserves and Oscar just for the way he says "ow" after being smacked. I laughed for 60 seconds and I couldn't stop. 60 seconds is way longer than you think.
  • @hessu275
    "Hello interesting older lady" is adorable way to start a conversation. The movie's really entertaining and thought provoking. Bella is a iconic character and so is Emma's performance
  • @ArchiesLens
    Mark Ruffalo was perfect in this movie and I hope he knows that.
  • @commandZee
    He was f#%&ing magnificent but I suspect Mark Ruffalo's English accent was just him doing an Austin Powers impression 🤣
  • @MaestroMcQ
    Ali Plumb is such an exceptional interviewer. His questions are about the film, low-stakes but still informative and interesting.
  • @natnutty
    mark ruffalo being so embarassed with his accent gotta be the cutest thing ever! always so humble!
  • @Fallen616
    Emma Stone is so electric, she has this old Hollywood charm about her, she’s exceptional.
  • @AriefLeuvenardi
    “Filthy, disgusting, and worth your time.” That’s a cool phrase to print on a t-shirt.
  • @AM2PMReviews
    It was such a strange movie. It felt like Frankenstein and a Wes Anderson film and it felt like a music video.
  • @GamingGeek
    I saw this film last night and it is wild. I haven't stopped thinking about it since it finished because it is pure insanity & hilarious
  • @Fleabag-vf3mi
    The costume designer did a beautiful job on this film! The pastels and sleeves! ❤
  • @Sararizzles
    I think his accent kind of worked with the movie, it was a little quirky and f'ed up but also charming 😂 and the total bizarness of his scenes just made it all work. I loved Bella for the same reasons. But mostly for her wonderful innocence and non apologetic attitude about how she thought and acted. Brilliant film. The crisp pastry scene had me rolling and her dancing with Marks character trying to make her blend in better with his dancing. Hilarious.

    Watched Poor Things the other day. I am still in awe of how different and weird and brave this film is, in an era of way too much safe, pre-packaged, narrow cinema. I am both disappointed and strangely encouraged when I see negative comments about it. Thank you everyone involved!

    Mark Ruffalo's accent was everything! I LOVED it so much, he was fabulous in this film! Fantastic movie.
