Unwatchables is joined by film critic Carlos Aguilar, writer for http://RogerEbert.com, Variety, the New York Times, and many more, to dive into one of the most original and provocative auteurs of the last 15 years. Yorgos Lanthimos has been compared to the likes of Michael Haneke and Luis Bunuel, and we’re talking perhaps his two most disturbing films: the 2009 twisted family portrait Dogtooth, and 2017’s surreal thriller The Killing of a Sacred Deer. We discuss Lanthimos’ taste for the darkly absurd, Colin Farrell’s career revival, and where the director’s path may lead following an Oscar-winning costume drama.
