Directed by Yorgos Lanthimos (2017)

Yorgos Lanthimos' The Killing of a Sacred Deer will end up drawing a lot of comparisons - some of them from me - to his last film, The Lobster, because of Lanthimos' fondness for unusual stories and stilted dialogue and his decision to team with Lobster star Colin Farrell again. But while these similarities are there, Deer is the more grounded and at the same time more intangible of the two.
