2018 | Biography, History

"How Yorgos Lanthimos sneaked Olivier Messiaen and Luc Ferrari into an Oscar-winning film is one of modern cinema’s greatest mysteries. Mr. Lanthimos doesn’t get enough credit for his soundtracks, which often work brilliantly counter to the proceedings in his films. The use of music in “The Favourite” deserves a whole essay in itself. The acting isn’t bad, either."

Have you ever seen The Lobster? Or The Killing of a Sacred Deer? Both marvelously weird and awesome movies.

Now director Yorgos Lanthimos gives us the first trailer for his latest film, The Favourite.

Looks like more of the same. Enjoy!

Yorgos Lanthimos writes and directs strange, off-the-wall cinema. The Lobster is par for the course. Colin Farrell stars as a man looking for love in all the wrong places (ironic, I know). Rachel Weisz is excellent as the female lead opposite of Farrell. There is a ton to like here, but it is an odd experience.
