In a surprise win, the 35-year-old actress beat out perceived frontrunner, Killers of the Flower Moon‘s Lily Gladstone. Stone, who plays the resurrected woman Bella Baxter, revealed during her acceptance speech that she was “pretty sure” that Ryan Gosling’s “I’m Just Ken” performance “broke” her Louis Vuitton dress.

Poor Things also took home three crafts wins, for best costume design (Holly Waddington), production design (James Price, Shona Heath and Zsuzsa Mihalek), and makeup and hairstyling (Nadia Stacey, Mark Coulier and Josh Weston).

Based on the novel by Alasdair Gray, Poor Things takes place in Victorian London and stars Stone as Bella Baxter, a young woman who dies by suicide and is resurrected by the eccentric scientist Dr. Godwin Baxter (Willem Dafoe). In his film review, THR‘s David Rooney writes that Bella “evolves in this subversive twist on Mary Shelley from a Frankenstein experiment with — literally — the mind of an infant into an inquisitive girl with a hunger for sex and adventure, then finally, a fiercely spirited, independent woman.”

Mark Ruffalo and Ramy Youssef also star in the film, which has already won Golden Globe awards for best musical or comedy motion picture and best actress for Stone.
