The Lobster

Yorgos Mavropsaridis celebrated his nomination at this year's Oscars alongside his two daughters, who joined him on his journey to Los Angeles: 24-year-old Ilektra, a musician, and 27-year-old Penelope, a director. Perhaps this was his greatest joy.

"Poor Things," Yorgos Lanthimos' steampunk quasi-feminist fantasy starring Emma Stone as a Victorian woman whose brain is replaced with that of her unborn baby, won five awards at the British Academy Film Awards (BAFTA) on Sunday, including leading actress.

Greek film editor Giorgos Mavropsaridis, known from his cooperation with filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos, became a member of the US Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, joining 842 new members from 59 countries.
Mavropsaridis was nominated last year for an Oscar for the 2018 period comedy The Favourite and won an Eddie award for the Best edited feature film for the same movie.

Award-winning Greek filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos has been recruited by Italian fashion giant Gucci to shoot its latest cruise collection for men.

The shoot for the Cruise 2020 lookbook took place at Rome's Capitoline Museums, famed, among other marvelous artifacts, for a Roman copy of the ancient Greek statue of Leda and the Swan.

With Yorgos Lanthimos headed to Los Angeles, where his latest film, "The Favourite," has been nominated for an impressive 10 Oscars, Cine Studio is paying tribute to the Greek filmmaker with screenings of his previous work on Tuesday and Wednesday, February 5 and 6.

The Greek master of the weird Yorgos Lanthimos picked up the best screenplay award at the Cannes film festival Sunday for his icy thriller The Killing of a Sacred Deer.
Despite dividing critics — and prompting its star Nicole Kidman to say she wouldn’t be taking her kids to watch it — the creepy tale inspired by Euripides’ Iphigenia impressed the Cannes jury.

Yorgos Lanthimos and Efthimis Filippou won their first distinction at the international film festival of Cannes, earning the Best Screenplay Award for the film "The Killing of a Sacred Deer" on Sunday.

They shared the prize at the 70th version of the festival in southern France with the writers of "You Were Never Really Here" by British director Lynne Ramsay.
