With the release of Poor Things, Yorgos Lanthimos is one of the most interesting directors working today, no other filmmaker truly captures the sense of discomfort and unease you get when watching a Lanthimos movie. The Lobster and The Killing of a Sacred Deer are two very unpleasant movies. His worlds are utterly compelling yet dystopian at the same time, and they are all presented to us through his distinct visual style, which is at its height in The Favourite. Join me as we explore why his films are so effective, and how they give us a new perspective on our own society.

His characters talk like they are mature 4 year olds, if that makes sense
You haven't seen Dogtooth have you?
what is your point about dogtooth@@jasonchambers4495
I watched all of his films after watching The Lobster the other day.
It’s almost insane how much his visual and storytelling style matches my personal taste.
I’m so excited for whatever else he has to offer!
what I find most fascinating about it is that, for a period piece taking place in 18th-century England with politics, it also manages to be hilarious - a great dark comedy with witty dialogue.
The entire cast delivers outstanding performances, but Olivia Colman stands out. Her dedication to this role is incredible; she manages to convey a range of emotions, from sadness to hatred.
The cinematography is breathtaking, especially the amazing use of lighting.
It's a movie that manipulates your emotions, It's a tale of how the greed for power can lead someone to their own ends.
It's a well-crafted, hilarious yet heartbreaking movie.
I think what's impressive about the film is despite the moments of absurd comedy it never takes you out of the film, despite the weirdness you're always immersed in this historical world
Have you seen Poor Things yet? It's fucking hilarious
Yeah I loved Poor Things
Marvelous video. I'm reminded ever more frequently how Colin Farrell and Barry Keoghan are two of my favourite actors working today, even though I still haven't seen any of the films shown here
my uncle's new show starring Colin comes out in just a month and a half :)
they are in great The Banshees of Inisherin too
Picking up where Every Frame a Painting left off!
What happened to Every Frame a Painting channel? Died 7 years ago?
@@killeracz It was ended on purpose 7 years ago. That's what's said on the channel's description.
Thinking the exact same thing
Crazy how he just stopped. Dude inspired so many people to look at movies differently and then dipped.
@@thugtrippin Actually he just released a trailer video a week before you commented.
That spaghetti eating scene in "The Killing of a Sacred Deer" (15:47) is my fav movie scene since that plastic bag twirled and danced around for a couple minutes in "American Beauty."
The Lobster is a masterpiece of art
Kinds of kindness was PEAK THO
Poor Things was a masterpiece, completely original and funny as hell. Bravo
your channel is one of the best in youtube, mate!!!
LOVED Poor Things, Emma should defo get that Oscar!
10:55 what movie is this?
didnt expect to see cincinnati the queen city in this video
Killing of a Sacred Deer!
How much of this video is other peoples' work?
well, hello. first time i see a video from you. Loved it! There are things you point out, i hadnt notice before. Thanks
Viva Lanthimos! 🇬🇷
Great video, I hope you'll make one where you talk exclusively about Poor things? It's peak Lanthimos and it deserves its own video
Love your work Archer, thanks for what you do
Guess I should say Lawrence 😆
Favorite director of all time for me.
Your videos are wonderful! Thanks for the quality content, I just subbed.
Image if Lanthimos plagiarized as much as you, you'd have nothing to talk about
I just found your channel and I'm so glad I did. Phenomenal breakdown, you're doing fantastic work.
Thank you. I'm so detached from video entertainment, because of past decade corporate cinema and TV running everything into a gutter, I never heared about this director or movies. I'm most definitely checking them out, lobster sounds amazing
Very interesting video!
dogtooth is his best film. Very dark making you feeling very strangely at the end.
Lanthimos is a political Lynch (?) well done Lawrence
Thanks! The Lynch comparison is interesting, they definitely both create a strong sense of discomfort at times, although in very different ways
I find Lynch is quite old fashioned movies destined to the intelligencia (if that makes sense) like saying you re a fan of him during a chic dinner, and everyone agrees but no one really knows why.
I actually enjoy Lanthimos movies a LOT without having to watch it 3 times and read multiple analysis to try understand a glimpse of it
To me Lanthimos is Dali if he had made movies, while Lynch is like an renaissance writer that you study in class where the teacher invents a lot of things that « he meant in his masterpiece »
@@leaaaa11110000% agree! I never enjoyed Lynch, ( i tried several times) and i have such a good time with Lanthimos’ films.
Its nice when a wordless feeling appears on someone else’s (and well organiced) idea. Thnks for that
@@leaaaa111 Dali did make movies actually, with his friend Luis Bunuel. Un Chien Andalou is probably the most famous.
Though I think David Lynch has much more in common with Dali and the surrealists than Lanthimos.
I'd say Lanthimos is more like Franz Kafka if Franz Kafka made movies :)
Thats so sad dude
To me Lanthimos is Dalí if he had made movies. Surreal, crazy and delicious but definitely not for everyone
Brilliant video❤
this is a great video man
Appreciate it!
Oh I just watched the favourite 😻 it was hilarious and weird. Loved it
I had not realised that this was Collin Farrell until this video because of the moustache lmao, I just thought "that one random great actor who was only in the lobster but who I never really saw again"
4:30 How is that a rational answer? I get wanting longevity, but living over a hundred years as a lobster?
That's kind of why I'm not into cinema anymore. "People look at me directing a movie"
There are lots of other arts and so little time.
His films are an example of autism (or at least the way it's often perceived to be) as entertainment. The worlds are populated with characters for whom autism is no longer atypical, but the norm. That's why social norms seem odd. Why characters' behaviors seem inappropriate. Why dialogue is so literal and surreally logical. The natural worlds become uncanny and uncomfortable. Why we can now accept the strange rules of those worlds.
Quite reminiscent of Kafka
great video
The Favourite is always on Channel 4
amazing
NordVPN aaaaaaand you lost me
Isn't Poor Things about a little girl who's mind gets put into the body of an adult?
Necropedophilia?
@@indigohammer5732 close
nice
I absolutely loathe this type of filmmaking. It’s odd and off putting simply for the sake of making viewers uncomfortable. Cringy weirdness isn’t substance or relevance. It’s lazy filmmaking. The only purpose is to make its admirers feel cool and exclusive. And to make everyone else cringe.
I didnt find anything peculiar about the dialogue or characters besides an air of naivety, i suppose that may be because i am autaitic and so their way of action is my normal
increible video
Thank you!
no wonder Archer Green steals other youtuber's essays
i actually dont like his work so far (watched Lobster and The Killing Of A Sacred Deer), but im gonna watch Poor Thing maybe i like that better
i didnt like lobster either, but i truly LOVED The Favourite and fk fell in love with Poor things.
if i were you, i’d start with the favourite, just bc for me it was a fantastic film to get inside Lathinmos’ marvelous mind, and then give myself to poor things’ complex universe
greetings from 🇦🇷!
@@fafarandulathank you, im gonna do that :)
@@Zeylo89 hope you enjoy it!
Oh no you actually said "very unique". 😅😅😅
His blocking is terrible…
everyone? Kindness sucks
Yorgos may be my least favourite director working today. I genuinely hated each film from him that I've seen. I wish i liked just one of them, but nah, they are all crap.
Good video though mate
couple of your favourite films?
@fieldofdre4ms Heat, A Nightmare On Elm Street, The Godfather, Road House. Not liked anything I've seen from Yorgos though.
Couldn't agree more
@@coffeecrusader4863 Heat is such a banger. I liked The Lobster from Lanthimos, it was totally unhinged
Lynch was way weirder than this 40 years ago
The Lobster was god awful.
Killing of a Sacred Deer was pretty good tho, other than the dialog was a bit off
yeh dog tooth a rip off of bad boy bubby
Not really fan sorry !
'Lobster' was a brilliant movie, 'Killing of a Sacred Deer' ok movie, but 'Poor Things' is an expensive disgusting, sick load of meaningless crap!
First
Fine I'll say it HE'S NOT THAT GOOD😭
meh. director stans out of the loop
Everyone's copying CinemaStix)
I absolutely hate this director with a passion.
Why
@@ps2progamer814 The Lobster ruined me mentally.
This how i feel about Harmony Korine, his movies are terrible
@@gmg9010 oh ok
@@ps2progamer814 though I do wanna see poor things because maybe it’s less disturbing and it looks really cool.
I hope read this, the previous video you made about color in cinema starts with a title that is so so so wrong and trully shows how dangerous a well edited video really is. I know you don’t gaf, but the collaborative art of movie making is nothing like armchair commentators like you think it is, you not only awarded it to the director right on the title but you seem to have never been on the pre production or production of a great movie. Production designers and DPs have been unfairly treated and you obviously have absolutely no idea how they contribute let alone what an editor and colorist also can influence the final product. I’m so tired of RUclipsrs being the ones educating the naive with the power of video editing and to be honest I can’t stand when someone new comes and says “but I saw it on RUclips”. I miss broadcast regulators thanks to you and that’s something I never thought I’d say. Source - I’m a filmmaker, one of the high-end/budget ones. Goodbye.
Regarding my last video, I’m well aware of the role the production designers and costume designers had in the colours of the film, which is why I included interview clips of them discussing their role in my video. The title gives credit to the director as it makes a catchy title in an attempt to reach a wider audience
annoyingly annoying
Poor Things was the worst thing I've ever seen
I’d never heard of the director whose name I can’t spell or pronounce until recently due to awards season despite having seen The Lobster 🦞 when it first came out. I was so confused and disturbed by The Lobster I had to leave the room. But I gave it another chance last week when I binge watched almost all of this directors films due to the hoopla of his formidable talent. This RUclips clip explains only enough to get the attention of film geeks to speak out at one another about worthiness of Mr. Director’s Art. Personally, I think he will ride the next wave of fame but is hardly comparable to Wes Anderson. Mr. Director has a large palette and crafts wholly different storylines with his stock repertoire of Oscar winning actors, cinematographers and crew. Fascinating.
Killing of a Scared Deer was weird yet compelling after half a bottle of Pepto Bismol. The Favourite was a hilarious romp with the greatest casting and greatest costumes this director has ever done. Poor Things is hopefully going to prove the naysayers wrong as it looks like delirious mind bending eye candy and face it, Emma Stone is always a delight. Mr. Director, Yorgos Lanthimos, is the worlds next Best Director whether u like it or not!
