Adaptation


A Pigeon Sat on a Branch Contemplating Existence


The Bothersome Man (criminally underrated--one of the best depictions of someone getting repeatedly hit by trains I've ever seen)


The Lobster


I also second Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead. I watched it pretty close to when I finished Hamlet and about died laughing. Made me appreciate both works a lot more as well.

Andersson's commercials are incredible. Studio24Sto has several comps on YT; here's a taste.

Just finished this one. Enjoyed its meandering through the human condition. I realised I've seen the director's Songs From the Second Floor a while ago.
