everyone’s talking about yorgos lanthimos’s directorial genius and rightfully so BUT did anyone else know that the screenplay for the favourite was written twenty years ago by this woman deborah davis who had never written a screenplay before but had just discovered the story of queen anne and sarah and abigail in her work as a historian and become obsessed with it? so she did all this primary source research and went to night school to learn how to write screenplays and she finished her first draft in 1998 and started shopping it around and absolutely no one would finance the film because of the lesbian content and because studios were worried it would be hard to market without a male lead? and it wasn’t until fifteen years later in 2013 that the script came to yorgos and he was invested enough to start looking for funders, and then it wasn’t until this year that they finally put out the movie… literally it was twenty years in the making and all because deborah davis cared enough about this story to spend TWO DECADES revising her screenplay and sending it to producers
