Gymnast: You're the best coach in the world. You are the king of coaches.

Stretcher-bearer: [speaking to the nurse] We're going to do a test. I'm going to use this object. If it doesn't change colour and stays white, then it automatically means you are competent and reliable, and can stay in our group. If it changes colour, there are two possibilities. First, it might turn blue. If it turns blue, then it automatically means that you are competent, but unreliable. Therefore? There's no therefore. It doesn't really matter if it turns blue. It's just something I said. The second and worst possible outcome is for this club to turn red. Which means automatically that you are too unreliable to and too incompetent to stay with us. Let's see.
[He stares at the club for a long time. Its color does not change. Suddenly, he hits her over the head with the club]
Stretcher-bearer: It changed. It turned red. I'm afraid you'll have to go.

Soul substitute experiment method. Yorgos Lanthimos loves this extreme, claustrophobic, and bizarre subject matter and setting. It doesn't have the sharpness that refers to reality like "Dog Tooth" and "Attenborough". The beginning and the end are in sharp contrast, and the ending is great , but the editing is a little messy, and it is a bit far-fetched to take the best screenplay.

3.5. Lanthimos always likes to tell a fable with a big "gimmick". The sense of alienation between people diffuses in the film's serious, depressing atmosphere. But to tell the truth, most of the first half of the movie really wanted to fall asleep, the events were moving too slowly, and this fictional "society" and "occupation" also made me uninterested, and several scenes even felt artificial. Fortunately, the drama has been enhanced a little later, and it has returned to the right track. Similar to "Dog Tooth", the pattern and vision are larger but not as strong as "Dog Tooth". Violence and soft porn also seem to be just the director's stylized or typed personal demands.
