25 Alternative 2011 TIFF Picks: Yorgos Lanthimos’ Alps
Lanthimos’ Un Certain Regard winning Dogtooth has charted a course towards the stars (I vividly remember the viewing experience back in Cannes) and there are bandwagon filled with cinephiles who are very much looking forward to seconds. Primed for a big showing in Venice, Alps is the Greek helmers’ third film and is closer in DNA to his first 2005’s Kinetta.
