Maybe I just don't get the movie, but the strange, ultra-precise dialogue, the at times uncomfortable, but also beautiful camera angles could've really hit the mark if there wasn't always the "be scared now this is creepy"-music. I mean, most of the scenes later in the movie 'deserve' the creepy music but it's so overdone at this point that there's no impact left. Ah, well, can't always win.
The Lobster is on my list already but I haven't seen it yet - I will add The Favourite now, thanks. A good period drama always at leasts interests me.
Don't sleep on his non English films. Dogtooth is one of my favorites ( Be prepared for even stranger dialog), I also really enjoyed Alps.
Might have a look at these too if I can find them , thanks
Dogtooth was my first Lanthimos film, and probably still my favorite.
