8.1 The Lobster | Yorgos Lanthimos' Existential Trilogy

Lobsters are a family (Nephropidae, synonym Homaridae) of marine crustaceans. They have long bodies with muscular tails and live in crevices or burrows on the sea floor. Although several other groups of crustaceans have the word "lobster" in their names, the unqualified term "lobster" generally refers to the clawed lobsters of the family Nephropidae... Anyway this episode is about a movie called The Lobster and it has no lobsters in it whatsoever so Kabourophobes fear not. It's by Yorgos Lanthimos and it's the first episode of our self titled Existential Trilogy!We talk about love, civilisation, social moires, you know, big picture stuff. Get it while it's hot!
