Yorgos Lanthimos is the supreme example today of an arthouse director who has made his way into the mainstream on the back of a couple of popular successes. The period romp The Favourite(2018) and last year’s Poor Things propelled him from the shadows into the bright lights of the Oscars. With his new film, Kinds of Kindness, he returns to the dungeon he previously occupied.
Emma Stone is among the cast in this uncomfortably “thought-provoking” film.
