The people who made “The Lobster” have opted for “period piece” for their next trick, a dark comedy about the reign of daft Queen Anne of Great Britain.

With Olivia Colman as God Save Me and Rachel Weisz as her lady in waiting/power behind the throne and fellow Oscar winner Emma Stone as the new lady in waiting and thus new one we’d call “The Favourite,” this Nov. 23. release looks to be an awards season hoot.

And perhaps a little easier to take than “The Lobster.”
