Άλπεις by Yorgos Lanthimos Alps, Yorgos Lanthimos’s last Greek movie and his first ever non-English one which I watched, is so brutally powerful it could easily be a part of Lars Von Trier’s Golden Heart trilogy. When serving and helping others at the detriment of yourself becomes a burning obsession which leaves bodily marks and scars. Now, for certain, I need to catch up on Lanthimos. The first movie of his I ever watched, back in 2015, was The Lobster, and I disliked it then, despite all the international praise and acclaim. Later, The Killing of a Sacred Deer totally broke the ice for me, and I put Lanthimos on my personal list of super-priority filmmakers, those whose every film I must watch (sure, I haven’t seen last year’s Bugonia yet, but will do soon, no rush). Back in 2017 I thought, well, maybe The Killing was a game changer, bringing a different perspective to his cinema - but now I see I was wrong, dead wrong. I need to revisit The Lobster and his previous Greek films. I hate offering spoilers, but this tale of sacrifice bordering on absurdity, an ever-evolving, self-consuming passion of no limits and no borders, it sure struck a chord. Insane. Ссылка скрыта
