I came across this Vogue article from 2015 and recalled how in awe of  “Beasts of No Nation”  I was when I viewed it at TIFF that September. Having travelled extensively through Africa - thankfully passing through a war torn zone wasn’t one of my experiences - I wondered what it would have been like working on it.

I have yet to see this “Poor Things”  but found the thought process behind costuming Emma Stone’s character brilliant.
