The Lobster

An outdoor screening of The Lobster from Cornwall Film Festival 

The Lobster | Dir: Yorgos Lanthimos | UK |  2016 ‧ Black Comedy / Drama / Romance ‧ 1h 58m | CERT 15

A bizarre rom-com like no other, directed by critical darling Yorgos Lanthimos (The Favourite). The Lobster follows a man (Colin Farrell) stuck in a hotel where all guests must find a romantic partner with whom they share at least one trait, lest they be turned into an animal of their choice. He encounters a group of runaways who swear off romance, which may become a problem when he begins to fall for a fellow short-sighted woman (Rachel Weisz).  Written and directed by Academy Award nominee Yorgos Lanthimos, The Lobster features an all-star cast including Academy Award winner Olivia Coleman, Léa Seydoux, Ben Whishaw and John C Reilly in supporting roles.
