93 minute running time … turns out that Yorgos Lanthimos, who is my kind of Gen-X smartass, makes the same movie over and over and over. Don’t get me wrong, I like his approach, his sense of humor, but this is not mainstream stuff … 99% of viewers will flee from this and even among the snooty arthouse crowd, he’d lose a majority of the audience. But I like it, I get it, he’s an absurdist. He’s interested in human behavior (“role playing”) and relationships. It’s not just whacky, it’s thoughtful, maybe even deep. And it’s funny as hell. Instead of giving this individual movie a green-go, I just give Lanthimos a blanket green-go … same as Nuri Bilge Ceylan, who also makes the same (great) movie over and over again.
