Film Reviews: A hospital nurse who's part of a mysterious Greek quartet offering specialized services for the bereaved goes rogue in "Alps," scribe-helmer Yorgos Lanthimos' anticipated follow-up to his much-laureled "Dogtooth." Conceived along the same lines as that film, as well as those of producer Athina Rachel Tsangari's "Attenberg," Lanthimos' latest offers another heady mix of peculiar occurrences, anthropological and Freudian insights into the human species and contempo society, and a particularly wicked sense of humor. Result feels less innovative than its predecessors, though this formally rigorous pic should nonetheless see substantial fest play and niche theatrical action.
