Visionary

Rating: 7/10 (18 May 2016)

The Lobster is not a movie you watch every day. The Lobster and a movie: Visionary Accurate Dreamlike. Actual Real. The author Yorgos Lanthimos, lays bare a contemporary society, made up of very specific rules, made of mass choices, where the collective has not the individual. The mirror of our society, the thin line that separates the rule of married life, the "horrible and traumatic" choosing to live alone. You can live on their own and be free? Be happy? No It can not because now the society to also impose the rules. You can not: do not you have to be happy. Not only can you not be yourself. I really appreciated the narrative style of the film, inspired by the old silent films, combining the current contemporaneity. We are a society bred like cattle, we are a collective, we have lost our identity is individual, we have lost the most important thing: Free thinking.
