Film show: An unkindly triptych from Greek director Yorgos Lanthimos

arts24 © FRANCE 24

We discuss "Kinds of Kindness", Yorgos Lanthimos' latest collaboration with Emma Stone and Willem Dafoe. Film critic Lisa Nesselson tells us why the Greek director has set himself up as a hard act to follow after 2023's award-winning "Poor Things". We also take a look at a new documentary charting the life and music of American folk icon Joan Baez and discover the dark comedy at the heart of French film "Plastic Guns", which revisits a horrifying and unresolved true crime. Plus, Pierre Niney plays the title role in the "The Count of Monte Cristo" as Alexandre Dumas' beloved adventure novel gets the big screen treatment.
