- Even award-winning directors with critical acclaim can find aspects of filmmaking "too daunting." Such is the case for Yorgos Lanthimos, who, after earning four Academy Awards for last year's Poor Things, just celebrated the world premiere of his newest feature, Kinds of Kindness, at the Cannes Film Festival in May. During an interview with Collider's Steve Weintraub, Lanthimos opens up about his process on set and how he approaches his work, as well as the ways he's altered his methods, particularly with his latest feature.
Kinds of Kindness reunites Lanthimos with screenwriter Efthymis Filippou, who co-wrote his previous works Dogtooth, Alps, The Lobster, and The Killing of a Sacred Deer, and tells a collection of three stories that center on the idea of control. The film stars an ensemble of Lanthimos' recently favored troupe - Emma Stone (The Favourite, Bleat, Poor Things), Willem Dafoe (Poor Things), Joe Alwyn (The Favourite) and Margaret Qualley (Poor Things) - as well as Mamoudou Athie (Elemental), Hunter Schafer (Euphoria), Hong Chau (Asteroid City), and Jesse Plemons (Civil War), who took home Cannes' Best Actor award.
In this interview, Lanthimos talks about filmmaking influences whose contributions to art - "if you can call it that" - make up who he is as a creator, how he works alongside his crew, and specifically his cinematographer, Robbie Ryan (Poor Things, The Favourite), and the change he made for Kinds of Kindness he's considering for future projects.

So very psyched to see this
digging the new graphics and layouts, very cinematic
Yes, thank you so much for making movies, Yorgos 🫶
Oh no doubt he's a Kubrick fan poor things screamed of influence
No. He’s stated that he a fan of pasolini and von trier.
@@YorgosL1 He is primarily a fun of Bresson, Bunuel and Kassavetis (in particular); he loves of course all the other classics
@@SteveGaudi1976 even tho his film is nothing like any of them
@@YorgosL1 yes I agree- where are the sweet sensitivities of Bresson, the ethereal atmosphere of Kassavetis etc? I think he is inspired by bits and parts from their movies/scenes not their cinematic style
@@SteveGaudi1976 yes but yorgos is quite strange because a lot of his inspiration is only taken bits for each of the movie like spielberg jaws or bruce lee movie. I don’t really know who his real inspiration. I think a director that is more aggressive and offensive with their content. I could see he like Zulawski.
He mentioned Buñuel, good sign
So...? Black Francis mentioned him too in several of his songs. Which were vastly more entertaining.
the interviewer saying "I need to go" was awk , lol
Am i the only one looking at interviews and spoilers trying to piece this film together?
I’m looking to find interviews where Yorgos is going to try to tell what were his philosophical intentions with the movies.
Interviewer could've done better. He was too much of a fanboy to ask the deeper questios. I was really looking for more about Kinds of Kindness and what Lanthimos was going for with it. Then again, this seems like a heavily truncated video, maybe the OG is better
some of the questions could be less generic and more open ended
The way this interview is shot makes me think that they recorded the questions and answers separately. It doesn't make sense the way they are both sitting and looking out at an angle.
This film was arrogant & self-indulgent.
Pretentious Hack.
I love people who get angry at things they don’t understand. Sign of a very low IQ!
Which one ?
Not Yorgos
