Chevalier

Based on my moviegoing experience, most romantic comedies, melodramas and other stereotypically feminine genre films are directed by men.  Based on this alone, Chevalier is an important film: a study of masculinity through the gaze of a woman filmmaker.

The Lobster

One of the most exciting voices of contemporary cinema has hit that point in his career where he needs to make his first English language feature.  Thankfully, unlike countless others before him, Yorgos Lanthimos managed to avoid the usual pitfalls of the “first English feature” and results in The Lobster, a film as weird and brilliant as his previous features Dogtooth and ALPS.
