I liked it a lot when I first saw it, but I attended a Q&A with Farrell and the director and it made me appreciate the movie a lot more. Basically, Lanthimos doesn't give direction to his actors. At all. Nothing. So that weird, despondent tone throughout the movie is something all the actors agreed to do before they started shooting.

Firsdt time I've seen a film make a joke about a suicide attempt. Well, several jokes.<br /><br />Assigning them children, wasn't that brilliant? I like how you list the great things about this movie even though it seems you didn't like it all that much.<br />epileptic.moondancerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11645198290574147035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1369116000753884175.post-26121053225125756902016-09-13T23:22:54.573-04:002016-09-13T23:22:54.573-04:00I'm with you on the ending.

It just sounded TOO weird. I know, I know - such a bullshit excuse.
