“A hyper-stylized mixture of physical violence and verbal comedy, Dogtooth is a darkly funny look at three teenagers confined to their parents’ isolated country estate and kept under strict rule and regimen — an inscrutable scenario that suggests a warped experiment in social conditioning and control. Terrorized into submission by their father, the children spend their days devising their own games and learning an invented vocabulary (a salt shaker is a “telephone,” an armchair is “the sea”) — until a trusted outsider, brought in to satisfy the son’s libidinal urges, plans the seeds of rebellion by trading VHS tapes for sexual favors.” Coming to the USA June 25th.

Still can’t get enough Steve McQueen? Well, you’re in luck. In a savvy move, My Wardrobe have brought in Taschen’s ‘idol’ series, which celebrates the life of several movie and music icons through photographs taken at separate stages of their career. The series has books on Bob Dylan, Clint Eastwood, Bob Marley, Sean Connery and the face of Americana, Steve McQueen. Best thing about these books? They’re only £6.99 each. (My Wardrobe)

Take a look at some shots from the books after the leap.
