MEANING?
Today's Daniel Auteuil film, the last, is by Michael Haneke.
A creepy mystery where the main man knows most of the answers once he listens to his own memory and guilt.
There is a lot of interpretation going on about this film in the review and others but Haneke himself is cozy about the truth and encourages viewers to form their own opinions.
Today, I saw a gay subtext and an Oedipal interaction between father and son.
It is the third or fourth time that I have seen it and I will see it again.
There is little that I can say except that it is one of my favorite films, very watchable, always surprising, even in new ways each time.
Autieul is superb and Juillette Binoche very near the top of her form as the puzzled wife.
A five out of NetflixFive.
