Anora (2024)

I expected this to be part rom-com switching over into gangster action. In fact it is much more interesting and weird combination of social commentary and screwball comedy. Performances are excellent all around and the humour is wonderfully deadpan.

It does take a while to get going. If you have a narrative movie, there is a central question, and the plot is propelled by your characters making decisions that will affect the answer to that question. Here you are well half an hour in before any such decision is taken. This is a problem I have with many contemporary movies. (not all, in One Battle After Another, for instance, the action starts right off the bat).

I never knew there were so many Russians in the New York area.

Question: Would say you are closer to unique, or more like the majority of people?

Remembering to answer this time..... Not saying it's necessarily something to boast about but my life has reallllllllly been unlike most people's.

I think I'm reasonably close to unique being that many people have told me that they've never met anyone quite like me before.
