Greek director Yorgos Lanthimos has been responsible for some of the most provocative and peculiar films of the past decade. His Oscar-nominated movie "Dogtooth" (2009) depicted a married couple who had kept their grown-up children confined at home for their entire lives. "The Lobster" (2015) — his first film in English, and an unlikely cult hit — was set in a world in which coupledom is legally mandated, and those who can't find a romantic partner are transformed into animals.
