“I never think about the audience.” Hayao Miyazaki
“Well what the fuck is a movie now?” Quentin Tarantino
“What has been used on one side, is lost on the other side. There's no going back.”
“They are going to love you.”
What do unending consumerism, greed, lust, and constant thirst for fame lead to? Where does the unbridled excess of the 21st century leave society and more specifically the people who strive for the fleeting approval of the corporate monsters that run it?
I can’t applaud The Substance enough for the uncompromising way the film examines ridiculousness of…
"This creature is more powerful than evil, he is death itself."
"We have not so much been enlightened as we have been blinded by the gaseous light of science."
In terms of atmosphere, tone, and art direction this take on the legendary vampire story feels like Robert Eggers' magnum opus. The film is nothing short of visually and technically jaw dropping.

Both Cate Blanchett and Michael…
