Alps

That's the Al-

What is that? What is that? The Alps?

Alpine? The Alp- Alps?

Alps.

Alps.

The Alp.

I think it's called The Alps.

Isn't it?

Take it away.

Yeah, so the second film we're going to be talking about today is Alps, again by Yorgos Lanthimos.

It was released in 2011, and it is his second film that he released, kind of where he was the main director and had the main role spearheading everything, and it was his whole deal.

This one was his second one, which followed Dogtooth, which came out in 2009, but we will be Talking about that one a little later.

And they just didn't do as much for me in the film as like other ones.

But like, it almost felt like he was using those moments to just like explore his own filmmaking process just to get to a feature length film, which was for me, it was just a little bit unnecessary.

Like the perfect example I would give is like in our Pixar episode a couple of weeks ago, we talked about how like Pixar crew said from going going from Toy Story to A Bug's Life was going from like a freshman year project to senior thesis and ironically I feel like Yorgos did this backwards with like Alps and Dogtooth like I was so surprised to learn that Dogtooth came before Alps because no offense to Alps but like Dogtooth is like worlds better than Alps in my opinion not to say Alps is a bad movie at all but I just thought that was really...

Those are really my only qualms with it, which is really not that bad.
