Sean Baker's Palme d'Or winner ANORA is an audacious, thrilling, and comedic variation on a modern day Cinderella story. Mikey Madison (ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD) captivates as Ani, a young sex worker from Brooklyn whose life takes an unexpected turn when she meets and impulsively marries Vanya, the impetuous son of a Russian billionaire. However, when Vanya's parents catch wind of the union, they send their henchmen to annul the marriage, setting off a wild chase through the streets of New York.

Critics Consensus

Another marvelous chronicle of America's strivers by writer-director Sean Baker given some extra pizzazz by Mikey Madison's brassy performance, Anora is a romantic drama on the bleeding edge.

Audience Says

Flipping fairy tale lore upside down, Anora, like its titular anti-princess, may make you laugh and still break your heart.

Anora is a grittier experience. All the performances are impressive and I will not be surprised if Madison receives an Oscar nomination.

Rated: 3.5/5

Sydney Morning Herald

It’s a rollercoaster ride, yet Baker never confuses movement with action. Every twist takes you somewhere you hadn’t quite expected to be, revealing an emotion you hadn’t expected to share.

Rated: 4/5

As brazen and unapologetic as many of Baker’s characters are… There is a desperation and a dependency on others that Ani refuses to let define her.

Rated: 4.5/5

Baker’s watchword, as it were, is no indictment, no condemnation. When it comes to Ani, that’s fine. When it comes to the social order, that turns into artistic and social negligence.

Rated: 2/4

There’s a sense that “Anora” has little beyond ambivalence for the characters within it.

Baker proves his point in a movie of split motivations held together by the revelation that is Mikey Madison.

Although it is a sad story, her acting is spot on and she deserved the oscar. I must admit this caught me completely off guard. I thought this was going to be a modern updated, edgier version of Pretty Woman from the trailers. Boy was I wrong! Not so cutesy.
