Release: Friday, May 13, 2016 (limited) [Theater] Written by: Yorgos Lanthimos; Efthymis Filippou Directed by: Yorgos Lanthimos Outré black comedy The Lobster might be likened to a religious experience for those looking for their fix of anti-Valentine’s Day sentiments.

Man Up
Release: Friday, November 13, 2015 (limited) [Netflix] Written by: Tess Morris Directed by: Ben Palmer Man Up plays out like the self-help book on dating that you never knew you needed. Or wanted.

Release: Friday, September 20, 2013 (limited) [Theater] ….and now that you have, please don’t ever share again. It might cost us our friendship.
