Dogtooth - 2010 - 4/10
AKA - Kynodontas

Pretentious Greek film wearing arthouse garb.
Three late teen children have been raised in complete isolation by overprotective parents.
The parents misinform and deliberately under-educate them. The children’s social skills are non existent.
Is this a cautionary tale about home schooling? Does that even exist in Greece?
My take is the theme about cultural alienation, and/or government obfuscation.
But if so, this is terribly ham fisted.
To my eye, the directing was sloppy, the acting was poor.
This director also made The Lobster, which I hated, as well as The Killing Of A Sacred Deer, which I hated, and the recent The Favourite. Good first half, second half snooze-a-rama.
SPOILER – Feline lovers beware - when the cat appears in Dogtooth, you better leave the room.
