You Were Never Really Here
Just fantastic. Phoenix has long been one of the best in the business and his performance here does nothing to tarnish his record. Lynne Ramsay continues to be one of the most underrated directors in modern film history. Her work here is nothing short of stunning. It's the type of gutsy filmmaking that you rarely ever see these days. Fantastic stuff!
Killing of a Sacred Deer
Damn... Having not seen any of Yorgos Lanthimos's flciks before now, I wasn't quite ready for this. Completely bizzare in almost every respect. Jet black comedy with hugely sinister undertones. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. There's some cool allegories in there to take away once it's finished, but overall I couldn't really say I was a fan, more just glad that I'd watched it.
Really looking forward to seeing you were never really here. Looks right up my alley.
Really enjoyed killing of a sacred deer. Very good film.
Have you seen the lobster? Another quirky lanthimos film worth a watch.
