  • Summary

  • This week we’re looking at The Substance!


    The film follows Elisabeth Sparkle, a fading starlet of the screen, who starts using a black market drug that temporarily creates a younger, and “better” version of herself, which leads to some pretty nasty side effects.


    We talk body image, the standards of female beauty, references to The Picture of Dorian Gray, Sunset Boulevard, and Vertigo, and of course the concept of addiction in the film.


    This is, in my opinion, one of the finest films of 2024, with some bold and daring filmmaking from Coralie Fargeat! The Demi Moore-aissance is well and truly upon us!
