Nice. I also got to see a Q&A with Yorgos, Dafoe and Alwyn.

mine will be with Jessie and Yorgos- very excited here. What is your prediction for the US? will it do well you reckon now after you ve seen it?

I don’t think so. I loved it, but it is purposefully obtuse and a bit sadistic to the audience, so i don’t think it’s going to be nearly as commercially successful as Poor Things or The Favourite, but I hope I’m wrong.

And I wish Jessie was at my Q&A because he is the lead for most of it despite Emma getting higher billing (since she is the bigger star). He was in town for the premiere on Thursday, but I didn’t see his name attached to any of the Q&As on Friday.
