Anora (2024)- Best Picture 2024. I saw it described as a comedy, and while there are some comedic elements, I would not describe it as a feel good comedy. Anora is a sex worker in a night club, who falls in with the son of a Russian oligarch. She agrees to be his girlfriend for a week. They fly to Vegas, he proposes to her, they marry, and once his family finds out, the rest is a mostly a dose of reality as the family, works to reverse the marriage. A slog to get through.
Not a fun, or feel good story. Mikey Madison deserves best actress, but the last half is not an enjoyable sequence of events, a movie I’m glad I did not see in the theater.
