66 Thoughts I Had While Rewatching ‘The Favourite’

my first time watching favorite It’s a moment that will forever be etched in my memory, largely because it was such a perfect viewing experience. I was alone in the Alamo Drawing Room in downtown Brooklyn. Weekday movies, Don Draper style (don’t tell my old employer…oh wait, they went bankrupt); drink a glass of ice-cold rosé, eat chips, and watch a super-gay Yorgos Lanthimos movie. Can a rewatch rival that afternoon of pure joy?
