Yorgos Lanthimos directs Emma Stone, Jesse Plemons and Willem Dafoe in this kinky anthology where the same cast plays different roles in mini dramas that are deadpan power plays about control and desire.

Every world has its flawed god. The first story is cruelly amusing, the second the most provocative and the third drags. Perception plays a huge part in how you relate to each of these and the second story works as it slowly dawns on us that we have been backing the wrong protagonist from the start. Tales Of The Unexpected with flashes of nudity and perversion. How much you are into sad faced fucking and manipulative control is on you. If you loved Lanthimos’ earlier Greek efforts this well made 3 hour indulgence might tickle you more than it did me.
