Olivia Colman stars in this bawdy period drama directed by Yorgos Lanthimos. Queen Anne (Colman) may occupy the throne but it is her co-dependent, Lady Sarah (Rachel Weisz), who makes most of the Monarch's decisions, leaving The Queen to get on with eating pineapples and racing ducks. When Lady Sarah's cousin, Abigal Masham (Emma Stone), arrives and is given work at the palace as a servant she quickly endears herself to The Queen and threatens Lady Sarah's status as the favourite. Lady Sarah cannot hide her jealously and a bitter and petty rivalry ensues as both ladies vie for The Queen's affections.
