It's amazing how one of the funniest moments of the film comes right before one of the most emotionally affecting ones (at least for me). As someone with depression and anxiety, Olivia Colman portraying that moment when the clouds descend and joy disappears with only her facial expressions blows me away every time.
To be fair, both she and Emma Stone have an amazing one in the final scene of the film. And I think she has another one after refusing to allow Sarah into the room (or at least somewhere around that part of the film).
1:54 I literally almost passed out from laughing so hard when I first saw this in theaters (definitely embarrassed my wife in the process). The whole scene just took me totally by surprise and I missed the next few minutes of the movie trying to get my composure back.
I can highly recommend the dancing lessons, as it's one of my favorite memories from being forced into classes outside my preferred era of much more modern history! Educating historians is closer to an old-fashioned taffy pull than you'd think, because we all have times that speak to us but get tugged in other directions by professors insisting we study their favorites via mandatory minimum course requirements. That's how they ensure that we work with the sticky essential threads connecting everything before separating into our particular specialties able to come up with original recipes and flavor, wrap, and neatly package what we produce in whatever jobs we go on to do. I do like baroque music, but I'm a military historian much more comfortable talking wars and taxes, preferably not having to go back much before Archduke Ferdinand went down and got the party that is total war started. I got forced into a class on the colonial era and Atlantic world, though, and I walked into a classroom one night to find my professor dressed as if at a Virginia governor's ball. He taught us the dances and etiquette of this very period, starting with how a man "made a leg." The surprising thing is that they aren't that far off base here! They really lined up in rows, and then a featured pair would go vogue in the middle, with lots of graceful arm flutterings for her and powerful, calf-muscle-rippling physicality for him! I know why waltzes with their intimacy became all the rage when introduced in the 1800s (that waltzy bit one of the few truly anachronistic parts), but this was a LOT more fun!!!
Yorgos, this dance makes no sense, and is completely anachronistic from the period in which the story is being filmed in. Yorgos: Yo, watch me tear up this dance floor, checkitout.
Olivia Colman's face as she's watching is AMAZING. You know how many actors just look blank or like a deer in the headlights when doing scenes like that? She just has this emotion pouring through with a look.
I have never laughed so fucking hard in my life! When he picked her up and stated to spin her sideways I almost pissed my pants! LMSFAO! And Harley with those hideous wigs? Bravo! Bravo!
I loved this scene! Saw this last night on C4, for the first time!!! What a blast. Unhinged, melodramatic, odd and funny. Like watching VERSAILLES meets BLACKADDER!!! Olivia Colman as the Queen is SUPERB.
If no one is singing it is not a song. Much better to say "Love this piece" that way grumpy professional cellists like me won't feel the need to point out your mistake.
Does anyone know if this arrangement is available anywhere? I was so disappointed it wasn't part of the soundtrack! (It's my favorite music in the film--though maybe that's just because of the dancing that accompanied it!)
Very Derek Jarman / Ken Russell vibes! I wonder if Yorgos Lanthimos is a fan of both? Yes, I did go see the film when it was shown in theaters. A very grim and beautiful movie. Olivia Coleman deserved her Oscar and BAFTA.
The original written by Handel was part of a larger vocal work: Let Rolling Streams is what this is based off of. Comming closest to this is Handel's Concerto a Due Core. I think 5. Its instrumental but not quite this.
ua-cam.com/video/VQR7mquSzHk/v-deo.html The song is called "Ode for the Birthday of Queen Anne: V. Duetto e Coro "Let Rolling Streams Their Gladness Show" It was written by George Frideric
Why in this scene, the courtiers dress like they do in the Spanish Court? And who does the colored lady who appears there represent? To what historical figure? This dance scene with the boy dancing in such a peculiar way is the clear representation of the life of a courtier (both from that time and today).
It's the instrumental version of "Let Rolling Streams" which is part of the "Ode for the Birthday of Queen Anne", a Cantata by Handel. I can't find this instrumental version anywhere else, however. I hope that was helpful.
In addition to the comic effect, it seems to me that by this modern dance elements Lanthimos creates an unambiguous connection to the present. From global political decisions to petty undercover intrigues. The era of Queen Anne’s reign is just a stage for satire on the modern structure of the world.
Lanthimos is the King of Awkward Moments lolol. Even not knowing if they danced like this back then, I can definitely just tell that he made them go ham on purpose 😂😂
I mean there''s not a whole lot to get. It's just about the power/love dynamic between the three leads. Rachel Weisz just wants to maintain her status, Olivia Coleman wants to maintain her authority without being undermined by Rachel and Emma Stone doing anything possible to escape the life of poverty and servitude she was born into. By the time we get to the ending Emma has "won" essentially but then she and we as the audience realize during the final shot that its not wine & roses and she is now perhaps even more trapped than before in her servile role to the queen. That was my interpretation anyway.
This movie should be available free on UA-cam wifi for everybody to enjoy not just the snooty rich who can afford expensive cable stations. There are several different versions of this film with different endings and a little bit different stories. I'm not sure which one should be available for free.

The expression on olivia’s face was so poignant and had so much emotion and she didn’t even say one word. Well deserved oscar
Why her character was, sad or angry?
@@alexwest2945 jealous of Sarah
Silver86 why was she jealous of her
@@user-db2tz9hg8f cus she loved her and she was dancing with some guy
hahahahaa little kids questions round xdddd
Man, Yorgos loves to make people dance terribly with extreme confidence.
With funny ironic music
Poor things anyone... although i find it quite fun 😁 i taught my year old niece to dance the bella solo and its just fun to watch
There is beauty in that
It's amazing how one of the funniest moments of the film comes right before one of the most emotionally affecting ones (at least for me). As someone with depression and anxiety, Olivia Colman portraying that moment when the clouds descend and joy disappears with only her facial expressions blows me away every time.
I feel the same way
40 seconds of showing Olivia Coleman’s face and it’s one of the most hypnotizing parts of the whole film. Can acting get any better?
No.
@@skuuvatakisTell’Em Steve Dave.

😊

And I think she has another one after refusing to allow Sarah into the room (or at least somewhere around that part of the film).
This is going to be my first dance at my wedding.
🤣🤣🤣 Can I come, I want to do the dance along with you
That is gonna be a hell of a wedding. 😂
I'm going need an invite...I'll even bring the Horseradish venison puffs!!!
It was stolen from mev
Him dropping it low to the floor 🤣😂
I always loved how they kept the sound of their fabric and shoes in the mix
Olivia's face expressions make me feel a bunch of emotions: Sadness, disgust, sorrow, empathy and so Many others I can't name.
I liked when Rachel Weisz pointed at her dance partner. My boy was like "my time to shine."
1:53 homeboy killed it
Crossfit clearly paid off
The dancing is one of the greatest and funniest things I've ever seen in my life.
Olivia’s face expression blows me away every time I watch this.

Lol
same tbh
Lmao
same! I couldnt believe what I was seeing hahaha
It's actually very deadpan,. but anyone who doesn't laugh at this doesn't have a sense of humour.
1:53 I tried to dance like that at a party... I broke my ankle
And you're not the one wearing buckled shoes.
I haven't laughed so hard in a 'period drama' in my life, and now I wanna learn that dance!😂

Period dark comedy, more like it.
you should try watching The Great, also screenwritten by Tony McNamara, one of the writers of The Favourite
The audience at the LFF was trying not to die from laughter during the dancing.
music: Handel: Concerto a Due Cori No. 2, HWV 333 - V. Allegro ma non troppo - Adagio
I saw so many different dances in there ragtime, voguing, break dancing.
"How do you like my stockings?"
"Festive!"
🤣
Imagine having to keep a straight face while dancing like this. I wouldn't have had the willpower
Can we make this a pop culture dance 😂😂
Colman is excellent in this single scene.
Pretty sure this is the scene that won her an oscar.
This form of music and dance needs to make a resurgence. ❤️👏
With the exception of the funny dance, yes! This music, fashion, are something else
The music is Baroque....the dancing is...not.
Yorgos, this dance makes no sense, and is completely anachronistic from the period in which the story is being filmed in.
Yorgos: Yo, watch me tear up this dance floor, checkitout.
Loved this movie. You just know that the choreographer for this scene had to have been watching 'Soul Train.'
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol I had the same thought it went from Waltz like dancing to Soul Train line real quick.
“Oh, yes, I love this music. I must dance.” I’ll declare this when I throw some shapes in Ibiza this summer.
Is this queen Anne’s birthday by Handel ? I’ve never heard it played like this. Absolutely brilliant.
Yes it is! It is "Let Rolling streams their gladness show" I love this piece so much!
Handel HWV 333 No. 5
Im loved
Harley is very handsome !Love him very much
This is the scene that secured her oscar
Olivia Colman's face as she's watching is AMAZING. You know how many actors just look blank or like a deer in the headlights when doing scenes like that? She just has this emotion pouring through with a look.
This scene led me into baroque music and also into weird and uncanny, totally improvized dance moves
1:53 That's what I came here for.
a lovely nod on how alot of period dramas have too modern dancing like waltz in a 18th century setting for example.
I have never laughed so fucking hard in my life! When he picked her up and stated to spin her sideways I almost pissed my pants! LMSFAO! And Harley with those hideous wigs? Bravo! Bravo!
This scene won Olivia Colman the Oscar.
1:53, what the hell ?!
Funniest shit 🤣
Joe hhahaha
he hit that
Voguing and a medival soul train line....How can you go wrong?? :-D
Baroque, not medieval.
This is the most bizarre dance I’ve seen today, and I spent the morning getting caught up on the Australian breakdancer from the Olympics.
I loved this scene! Saw this last night on C4, for the first time!!! What a blast. Unhinged, melodramatic, odd and funny. Like watching VERSAILLES meets BLACKADDER!!! Olivia Colman as the Queen is SUPERB.
1:53 this looks like something you'd see in a borat movie lol
The question is sooo did he practice this with taylor?
Anne’s dress is gorgeous omg ❤️
So funny, so wicked. Great film !
Lol. Saturday Night Fever in the hippest Baroque England club.
In this film, nicholas hoult character concern about the people. But in the great he only think about himself. That's a range
he didnt want war to happen here but in the great hes being an absolute madman
and you know i wanna ask you to dance right there in the middle of the parking lot yeA
who would say that rachel weisz and nicholas hoult would work together once again after having acted on "about a boy"!
Oscar's are deserved all around for everyone who kept a straight face during this scene.
Love this song! Wish there was a good recording of it.
Handel HWV 333 No 5
@@bobk439 thank you!!!! Love it!!!
If no one is singing it is not a song.

Those moves should have been used in Saturday Night Fever.
My favorite seen in the favorite
If my old man tried those moves down our local Roxy he would probably end up in A&E! 😂😂😂
1:53 well now i know what dance moves to use next time at the club 😂
Joe Alwyn looks like Joseph Gordon Levitt here...
Reminds me of a work party.
Eat that tic toc dancers
Huzzahh

1:54 pop barroque dance. So trendy!
"I'm having trouble swallowing at the moment."
The version of this music is amazing and nowhere to be found
Let rolling streams their gladness show is pretty good
YESSSS WHY DOESN'T IT EXIST
Do the Macarena, but make it baroque.
A pompous version of Soul Train, or the opposite? LOL
Is there any full version of the song. The exact one. I've found other versions but this one just hits different.

Why do I see a point of the dance in poor things as a direct reference to this 1:54
They would have never danced like that.
Yes, that's part of the joke
Is this the same dance done in Poor Things?

Or England.

The choreography looks so ridicules I find it hard to believe that's really how nobles danced during this actual period.
That's the point, it just an exaggerated dance 😂
It isn't. It's meant to unsettle us and seem alien because that's how Queen Anne felt.
