A good movie makes us think

The Lobster

Weirdest movie I've seen this year. Why can't being single be absorbed by the mainstream consciousness of society? Why should the so-called good match between partners be defined by higher social laws? Why do humans become value machines without knowing it? In this film's black and white, dystopian story frame, the director uses my favorite dark humor and film language rich in irony and metaphor to tell a story that makes people laugh, but also makes people think.
Thinking about our real society, isn't it actually happening a lot of the time? Single dog, leftover girl, forced marriage, aren't these words all formed under such values? Most people are actually judging others by their own measure of value. Such a society, we live in it without knowing it.

The Lobster quotes

  • Short Sighted Woman: [narrating] One day, as he was playing golf, he thought that it is more difficult to pretend that you do have feelings when you don't than to pretend you don't have feelings when you do.

  • Short Sighted Woman: [narrating] Some punishments are worse than other punishments. Having your thumb cut is worse than having your head shaved. And having a hot boiled egg under your armpit is worse than having your leg kicked. The punishment I am afraid of isn't the Red Kiss but another one, that is called the Red Intercourse. I have never seen it happen, but it's not difficult to imagine what it means.
