The Lobster [videorecording].
In a dystopian near future, single people, according to the laws of The City, are taken to The Hotel, where they are obligated to find a romantic partner in forty-five days or are transformed into beasts and sent off into The Woods.
"Farrell absolutely kills it as David. Weisz gives one of her best performances since her Oscar-winning turn in The Constant Gardener."--Chicago Sun-Times
"Yorgos Lanthimos' first English-language feature is a wickedly funny, unexpectedly moving satire of couple-fixated society."--Variety
"The Lobster is a brilliant piece of satire, but largely fails in an attempt to build its wicked wit into a more conventional romance."--Globe and Mail
