Liked this more than The Lobster, although I haven’t seen Dogtooth or Alps.
Great casting, Nicole Kidman was pretty great. Barry Keoghan was amazing – a great embodiment of volatile, young masculinity with high potential for violence.
Again, felt like the movie was kind of talking about the male ego – and violent consequences.
The shot following Colin Farrell’s character above his shoulder kind of stuck with me.
Also, the scene where Raffey Cassidy sings to Barry Keoghan’s character, while holding cigarette, standing by a tree.
The film felt like less of an open ended question than The Lobster (and as told to me by Malcolm, his other films.)
Saw this with my sister and she was thoroughly confused.
