Yorgos Lanthimos is making a triumphant return to the Venice Film Festival this year with Bugonia , his first appearance since picking up a Golden Lion two years ago for his film, Poor Things , which went on to win four Academy Awards.
The new film, from Focus Features, stars his muse and frequent collaborator Emma Stone , who describes their latest collaboration like this: A “really fascinating and moving, funny and fucked up, and alive” film. It’s an endorsement that is sure to please the many fans of Lanthimos, an auteur whose films often shift from the funny and absurd to disturbing and provocative in a matter of two hours.
