While in conversation with Vogue, she shared more insight into the Nicolas Ghesquière-designed outfit and how Lorne Michael’s favorite cinematic snack became the star of the show. Though the Poor Things star did recognize that the statement accent piece was a hit, it was ultimately rude because of the trail she left behind her:

Films from around the world – including huge hits from India, darkly funny movies from Korea, independent European dramas, and Japanese remakes – demonstrate that the idea of a hero isn’t unique to America.

The main source of drama centers around Ali’s decision, as Anton has already indicated he’s willing to marry her despite acknowledging she’s demanding and doesn’t handle household chores.

Initially concerned about his lifestyle, she now questions the accuracy of information she received about Anton going out partying and to strip clubs.

Furthermore, when Anton’s mother praises his character, Ali confidently tells her she loves him and thinks he’s a wonderful person.

Both services saw their monthly churn rates double from August to September – one jumped from 4% to 8%, and the other from 5% to 10%.

As a result, the characters and plot feel more like a stylized fantasy than a realistic portrayal.
