The Substance
Dir. Coralie Fargeat · NR · min · 9/20/2024
A fading fitness TV host (Demi Moore) injects a black-market substance that generates a younger version of herself—with escalating, grotesque consequences. Winner of the Cannes Palme d’Or for Best Screenplay; Demi Moore won the Golden Globe for Best Actress. Note: this film is graphic body horror. The violence is intentional and feminist in its critique of how ageism destroys women from within. Not suitable for all viewers.
