Poor Things is a fantastic film, but The Favourite wins out over it in almost every arena bar Production Design and Score.
In terms of ranking the leads: Colman > Stone 2.0 > Stone 1.0 > Weisz. All of them brilliant.

I love The Favourite. I really did not care for Poor Things.

Echoing stephen, Poor Things is really great and I liked it even more on second viewing, but The Favourite is one of the few truly perfect films I can think of. Poor Things is certainly flashier, but I still think The Favourite outweighs it in most tech categories. I honestly find ranking the leads to be basically impossible. All-timers all round. |

Poor Things for everything. It's funny, immediately after watching it, I wrote that it's almost as terrific as The Favourite in my blurb... but the more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was actually just as great. And today I woke up feeling that it's probably a touch better. The Favourite is a tighter, more perfectly rounded piece, while Poor Things is a bolder, more exciting, all-encompassing vision. Today I'm on the latter's side.

Oh, and it's The Favourite, thank you very much.

Poor Things for cinematography and production design. The Favourite for everything else.
In terms of the performances: Queen Anne > Sarah Churchill > Abigail Hill > Bella Baxter.

Poor Things is probably the more flawed movie of the two, but overall I think I was more engaged by it. I really like The Favourite, but I felt slightly more removed from it on a recent rewatch, whereas Poor Things draws me into its world more – it’s also a funnier movie to me (though The Favourite is hilarious at times too of course). I’d rate both about the same (8/10ish).

The Favourite for the acting (Colmann  ). Poor Things for everything else. |
