delightful similarities between Orlando and The Favourite: - filmed at hatfield house- costumes by sandy powell- handel featured on soundtrack- queen anne’s gout is specifically namedropped- “my life is like a maze that i continually think i've gotten out of only to find another corner right in front of me.” - abigail dealing with loss of nobility//orlando coping with loss of nobility by frantically running, lost, through a hedge maze - GAY as HELL!!!!!
