Hilarious, bizarre and a philosophically very dark comedy - cinema at its finest!

I just watched this film at the Biennale Festival in Venice and I'm totally mesmerized by it: This is as good as cinema can get!!!

The film dares to ask boldly all the deepest und most relevant questions in our life.

A philosophical journey of questioning the established values of the society, the concept of morality and the true meaning of life itself. An absolutely brilliant performance, especially by Emma Stone (I'm quite sure she will win an Oscar for this!), a fantastic set and costume design, I'm not even getting started on storytelling, cinematography and editing... Oh Yorgos oh Yorgos!

I would love to watch it again immediately as soon as it is out in theaters.

PS: I have only one wish regarding music: Tom Waits would have gone very well with this. In my head Tom was playing while I watched the film.
