And if you notice Victor's bedding changes from red to blue and his clothing colour changes. There are lots of colour symbols.

Same. I'm hoping V&A do an exhibition 🙏🏼

She represents the natural world, so at this point she's like a bird of paradise in peacock colours.
Then there's the butterfly metaphor and finally she's the bride with bandage sleeves.
It's a masterclass in costume supporting theme & characters.

They're not period accurate. They made style choices but the sets mix periods too so that's just the world of the film and it all works.
They had the costumes at Selfridges for a week in London. Gutted I didn't know so couldn't fly over in time 😭

Kate Hawley really knocked it out the park. She did Crimson Peak too.
Incredible work. Her details.
She dyed the fabrics with that geological agate print for Elizabeth's clothes.
And the handstitching on everything 😍🔥

Yup. I saw it at the cinema thankfully :)

The veils!!! 🥹🙌🏽 I'm living for the amount of silk organza!
I'm just happy to pore over this film for now. It's so rich.

I'd rather see Carmilla done by a woman tbh. Also I get the impression vampires aren't his kind of monsters.
But I've read he has Phantom of the Opera in his back pocket, which would be 🔥🔥🔥
None more Baroque.

He's said he's not interested in Dracula. Also said that Coppola already did the best version so he doesn't need to.
His Frankenstein definitely shares DNA with Coppola's Dracula

The best thing about Future Class was they genuinely chose great peoplel who I wouldn't have met otherwise. They can't take that down from the website!

A shame we forged solidarity through a sense of being exploited. Imagine expecting a bunch of activists to be silently grateful for crumbs

At least we know it really existed - for what it's worth.

Colin Farrell was amazing (when isn't he), as he's in every single scene, sweating and being on the emotional edge.

It has this sentimental heart that surprised me but I really liked. It didn't go where I was expecting. Also the end credits are really pretty.

Haven't you seen Grey Man and that John Wick-alike they made Gunpowder Milkshake? They love a bit of neon lol
But this isn't that.

And it isn't giving award bait at all. The opposite, as a follow up to Conclave and All Quiet on the Western Front.

This is giving Uncut Gems level of tense and proper fecked.

Also it looks incredible because it's the Conclave director, Edward Berger.

It looks like he was just a tiny part as a hotel manager, which is CRIMINAL use of JT 😫

Yes, good. Character instead of just sheen. It's very pretty.
