Emma Stone reflects on her Oscar-winning role in Poor Things by emphasising the unique process of unlearning and being unprepared for her character, Bella. Unlike typical roles where actors focus on learning or preparing specific skills, Bella's full-grown healthy body presented a different challenge. Stone compares it to the innocence of toddlers learning to walk, highlighting the absence of any prior reference point. Working with director Yorgos Lanthimos, they experimented with Bella's uninhibited nature, exploring her lack of shame and embracing pure joy, curiosity, and adventure. Stone admires Bella as her favourite character due to this unlearning process, emphasising her openness towards her body, experiences, relationships, and indulgences. She even talks about the Alexander Technique at the THR Roundtable. Oscars 2024 Best Actress Winner: Emma Stone Bags Her Second Oscar for Poor Things at 96th Academy Awards.
