Anora
Anora, a young sex worker from Brooklyn, gets her chance at a Cinderella story when she meets and impulsively marries the son of an oligarch. Once the news reaches Russia, her fairytale is threatened as the parents set out for New York to get the marriage annulled.
From quick-cut montages to anxious extended sequences, Anora showcases a filmmaker in brilliant command of his craft, expertly upholding a tragicomical tone for a story that keeps us on the edge of our seat.
Painting the air blue with her profanity, Madison is unflinching, delivering an unforgettably charismatic performance. It’s another stalwart actor-director partnership for Baker, who builds on his work in Tangerine, The Florida Project (TIFF ’17), and Red Rocket for his most propulsive film yet, which won the Palme d’Or at Cannes.PT2H19MRMikey Madison
