They are roommates
Oh my god they are roommates
I’ve had many roommates
like Cary Grant and Randolph Scott were roommates
I thought he had a girlfriend? Or was it the Oscar expert (brother)?
That's what cinema historians will say in 2000 years.
_Cannes of Cannesness._
Mia Goth and Yorgos feels like a crazy combo we all NEED!
Nah Mia is too OTT.
I mean, you could say that with any actor who can give a really explosive performance. Toni Collette and Lanthimos. Nicolas Cage and Lanthimos. Jake Gyllenhaal and Lanthimos. Joaquin Phoenix and Lanthimos. Viola Davis and Lanthimos. Robert Pattinson and Lanthimos. J. K. Simmons and Lanthimos. Tom Hardy and Lanthimos. Idk it just seems like an obvious, uninspired duo and I think at this point in Mia's career, I'd much rather see her work with a director in a role that's much more restrained and naturalistic.
The Killing of a Sacred Deer DEFINITELY has a message....
Killing of a Sacred Deer is based on an old myth called “Iphigenia in Aulis”.
It explains more blatantly the story: King Agamemnon accidentally kills a beloved deer in the sacred grove of Artemis.
The offended goddess commands Agamemnon to then sacrifice his own daughter, Iphigenia, in order for his plans to bear fruit.
It’s a fascinating retelling of an old story, that once you’re familiar with the original tale, frames the film differently and you 110% understand each and every scene.
Is that a *message*?
I mean, that's one perception or influence. For me, it's about deranged characters doin' their shit
Is the message with us in the room right now
@@pb.j.1753the best thing about this kind of art is it doesn’t need to be in the room as brain rotted as that reply sounds lmao
@@sammalla5238well it’s the main influence of the movie, it’s in the title
This is DEFINITELY the team-up I never knew I needed! You two bounce off of each other so well! Loved this review fellas! 😊
What a collab! I’ve been following both accounts for ages!
So at this point its safe to say that Emma Stone is the DeNiro or DiCaprio to Yorgos’ Scorsese? Like I imagine the two of them working together in perpetuity, collecting awards left & right as they work from film to film. Come to think of it how many actress/director ongoing collaborations combos are out there in the same way as DeNiro/Scorsese? I can only think of 1 right now: Penelope Cruz and Pedro Almodovar?
Literally any cast member from a Wes Anderson film. (Notably Bill Murray but tbf it’s basically anyone he’s ever worked with at this point.)
@@olliemartinelli4034 True but I was thinking female actress and director pairings?
Killing of a Sacred Deer did resonate with a kind of truth for me: the surreal, insane experience of guilt and the unfathomable toll it takes as well as it's inevitability
That even a selfish person who has successfully compartmentalized the mistakes they've made is fundamentally unable to escape the toll of guilt
maybe I'm the only one here, but I want yorgos to go back to doing movies in greek. dogtooth is still my favorite.
The Jesse Plemons reference of looking like Philip Seymour Hoffman’s son mirrors their roles in one of the best cast films of the last decade: PTA’s The Master, also with Joaquin Phoenix, Amy Adams, Laura Dern and Rami Malek.
That intro killed me. LOL. I do love you as a couple. I see potential
Couple? When did they say that? I must’ve missed that😂
I was waiting for this review. Can't wait to watch the movie!
Exited for reviews for Furiousa, Oh Canada, Bird, Emilia Perez
The cast is fantastic and I’m interested for that alone
Hey fam! The dynamic duo we need for Cannes!
Control, identity Death of RMF who becomes kind of god Hermes who brings people to the other word in the second story His ressuraction at the end > ressuraction of an everyday not important person. The mythical eternal themes, Its reference to Poor things (god dad who controls our lives the pregnancy the advice of Emma at the end tto her daughter he redicolous death of the female jesus who could defeat death Just few points of a masterpiece which we have to see again and think more.
What in the challengers is this
Saw it lastnight at Sydney Film Festival. Really didn’t enjoy it at all. Several people walked out.
I thought there was a pretty clear throughline about the want for freedom of choice versus the comfort of freedom from choice. It could maybe get cinematography imo, its a very esoteric branch that nominated movies like Bardo and El Conde.
I'm glad it's another collab with the weird guy
more luke collabs!
Nice collaboration.
Damn what an amazing coffee meeting
Overly long run times are negatively affecting the potential of so many films lately. Current extended run times feel arbitrary and/or obligatory instead of being an intentional aesthetic device in service of the story and its flow.
Can arbitrary and obligatory be true at the same time?
Also, if overly long run times (whatever that means) are negatively affecting the potential of films then it wouldn’t make sense for it to be obligatory. Because ultimately Hollywood is in it to make money. If they thought overly long run times would hamper that then they wouldn’t let that happen.
Someone in the comments plz just tell me the spoilers 😭 (seriously plz spoil the movie for me)
if a fever dream was a movie. that’s the spoiler
At one point Emma stone and Jesse plemons are sex cult members who can only have sex with Dafoe or Chau otherwise they’ll be considered contaminated, they have to pass out in a sauna to sweat so Chau can lick them and check if they’re contaminated, erm they don’t eat fish and only can drink water from a well which are actually the tears of the cult leaders. It turns out that Emma stone and Jesse plemons are looking for someone that can raise people from the dead, but Joe Alwyn, playing Emma stone’s husband gets Emma kicked out of the cult as he drug rapes her, because he wants her to return back to family life. And that’s just one story
By the 3rd part, I was ready to go. Just weird af
Crossover OP 🫡
Now the big question, how will this play into award season? Or will it not even make a dent 😂
I just NEED to know if there is any graphic animal cruelty on this film. I can't watch that sht, please someone tell me if it has it, in which segment so I can skip it please.
quite the opposite, theres a reference of a world that dogs are running the planet and humans are like dogs :D
a small bruise on a stray dog that is getting healed is the only part that appears with cruelty (?) maybe for someone
There is but it doesn’t show much. It’s about a dog.
SPOILERS:
In the third act someone injures a dog with a knife, you see the bloody flesh wound for a but but you later see the cut healed and the dog survives.
Will Luke teach Brother Bro to dance?
The fact that you're holding the cup like that is stressing me out. Put it down, drink from it, or hold it with both of your hands, please. Not a Brit yet!
This guy looks at Brother Bro with love heart in his eyes.
The 'through line' is the things that people are willing to do for someone else's love and affection. Spoilers.

We see that with Jesse Plemons in the first story, and Emma Stone in the other two stories. Personally, I loved the film and thats how I understand it after thinking about it.
Two videos in a row by brother bro.... but no Oscar Expert......where is Oscar Expert???
He didnt went to France, only Just went.
Only brother bro went to Cannes
he ate him in the womb
Very odd movie :( Other than Poor Things (Possibly more for Emma Stone) I have not liked Lanthimos movies. He is an overrated director, at least personally.
Willem dafoe made the movie so much more impactful
You fine
To me it felt like this movie is made by chatgpt
Same 😂
Dumb and Dumber?
Poor things was my favourite film. This was a Machiavellian snooze fest that was 2 hours and 30 minutes too long. The dialogue was so clunky it was hard to believe it was made by a famous director.
4th❤️
I remember back in the day of film critics like Kael, Ebert, Haskell, Maslin, Siskel, Maltin, to name a few, to be a film critic and get employed and paid by a written newspaper or magazine you had to have intellect, exceptional writing skills, and insights into cinema that the average person did not have. You not only had to know how to analyze film-making, but you needed exceptionally great reporting and journalism skills.
Thank you TH-cam, my how the times have changed.
this is a youtube channel. Anyone can post a review on this platform. If you don't like their review style, do not watch.
Siskel and Ebert were literally just 80% plot summary. Seriously.
Looks serpentine
I enjoy the awkward Lanthimos of The Lobster and Killing of a Sacred Deer more than the period pieces of The Favourite and Poor Things.
I do love Tony McNamara’s dialogue though. I think that’s what made The Favourite so accessible for me.
Agreed
Sounds like a huge pass for me.
that guy sounds like he's originally from cheshire and is putting on the fakest accent ever
Yup looks like it’s ehhh
I saw the Lobster in its theatrical run eight years ago and absolutely hated it. I guess it was edgy and challenging, but so is eating shit.
First
sounds not so great..
Cutest gay couple ❤🏳️🌈👨❤️👨
Don't enable
@@RB-.- it’s a joke there related
Luke Hearfeld is annoying.
emma stone is far from aging gracefully thus has no career choices and has to resort to playing denigrating roles that no actress with self respect would play in one million years
I hated both poor things and the favourite. Both were vapid, woke, lectures on feminism, but a very dated version of it. Lacking any complexity and from a very male centred perspective. Tony McNamara is a bit of a hack.
this is 2024, deal with it
