“Poor Things” is an over two-hour long, star-studded film that was released Dec. 8, 2023. It was the vibrantly whimsical lovechild of Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein” and L.

On the surface, it was a wonderfully done movie, considering the multifaceted cinematography, the eerie orchestral scores and the perfect casting. But what makes “Poor Things” a masterpiece is its unique but thorough execution of themes such as nature vs. society and the journey from girlhood to womanhood through the lens of autonomy.

A lack of energy and ability to follow through was what Head Coach Lionel Mauron cited as the reasons for the game being such a close one.

Ohio made the quick trip north to Cleveland to take on Cleveland State in a Mid-American Conference dual. Ohio was riding high following its big win at home over George Mason.
