After watching that movie, I have to confess the song playing when he died puts me on edge. I think the combination between its loudness, the way it can never fade into the background, the tension between them as a couple, the potential passive aggression, and then all the tragedy afterwards. It was the perfect song to define the chaos
This movie reminds me, a bit, of John Sayles' movie from 1999, called "Limbo." It's about a family trapped on an island with a threat that's looming the whole film, and the ending (spoiler) could go in either direction, but we are not given any clue as to which is the "real" result. I'd never heard an audience gasp audibly at a credit roll before being in the theater when this happened, and the ending of this movie reminded me of the fact that we often don't know the details, or the endings, or the mysteries in life, but we tend to demand them in movies.
Idk. Why can't impurity be pure. People lie, for example, so to tell a lie is also the truth of our reality. Why can't truth be simply complex. A fractal complexity is very simple. For example, the Mandelbrot fractal can be expressed through one line of an equation or an infinitely complex pattern.
I usually catch your videos on art pieces but what a lovely surprise to come across this video of this movie that I adore. I loved the fact that you walk away from the film not knowing everything, that as you say, the chaos and nuances can at times seem frustrating--it would have been much easier and quicker for us to discover Sandra did indeed kill Samuel and this is how she did it without a doubt--but real life rarely operates like that, and true to that notion, I loved the way their relationship is depicted. Relationships are complex because humans are complex. I especially appreciate the ending where her and her lawyer do not end up in bed or share a kiss. Some things just end, fanfare is not required to do so. And some questions will never be answered.
Hey, good to see you're still making videos! Very creative setup on your part, I imagined myself standing under the window you were speaking from and trying to catch what you were saying over passing traffic and it gave me a chuckle to think that is in fact what I am doing, just through a screen. I haven't seen the movie, but still enjoyed the video. BTW, what is up with those Eminem tunes, does it help with viewer retention or something? I remember one youtuber who was flashing pictures of attractive girls on the screen in geopolitics videos and when I asked him about it, he claimed it made people watch the whole video...
it's surprising that out of most videos I watched about this film no one really commented on the very important line that Daniel says in the film "when we have looked everywhere and still dont understand how the thing happened I think we have to ask why it happened"... derived from what the film postulates that truth maybe unknowable but instead of concentrating on what is inaccessible perhaps the only truth that should matter is on the larger narrative or why rather than the how. And perhaps we can apply this to almost anything in life.
I only saw this film a couple weeks ago, so a timely review for me. I was also frustrated by the ending; yet despite the good reasons you give to not be, I don't feel inclined to watch it again.
hi , another perceptive observation of an artistic endeavour, well done. I'm interested to share something with you that has happened/ is happening here in New Zealand that may be of interest , but not over RUclips, do you have another form of private communication?
"Sitting in a window, reflecting on seeing this movie for the second time, I am reminded that I'm not a hospitalized child sitting in a window whose head has been blown off by ab Israeli sniper."
I am 90% sure that the husband didn't kill himself. It might have been an accident but not a suicide. First of all who living in hight mountains chooses to jump from a shed when there are plenty of better options. And secondly, the kids testimony was made up. Every time in the movie when a retrospective takes place we hear characters voices. While in the testimony everything is said though only the kid voice. There is also a deleted scene from the ending that paints the wifes character in slightly darker tones.

This video is an art work. I am spiritually richer now that I have watch it.
A relationship ending with an existential sniff/sigh is the most European thing ever.

I came for the talk about the movie, I stayed for the camera shots of the video itself! Very creative take, kudos :)
I appreciate the ending. I've felt a yearning for stories which end like that for a long time.
Just finished Anatomy of a fall and ran to watch this video. this video is amazing.
Best screenplay I’ve encountered. Beautiful movie
Oscar Wilde, “The truth is rarely pure and never simple.”

This is familiar, is this qoute from the picture of Dorian Gray
I was wondering what you were up to. Glad to see you haven't lost your touch

She was talking to me directly in that scene

European cinema at it's best! Sandra Huller was perfect for this role.
Its interesting the way in wich the posibilities of chaos and entropy take way in subjetivity and narrative areas
Please do more videos like this!
Your reading of the film is far more interesting than the film itself to me.

With a whimper and not a bang. That's how life ends. In no thingness.
Where's Snoop?

The real dilemma is whether to watch the new video of someone who recently made the most uninformed statement on the Gaza war I have heard.
Huh?
You mean that it isn't a war but a genocide?
This movie was dogshit.
