Amour





















































Last night, I finally caught AMOUR, Michael Haneke's latest.
The film is about how a couple in their 80s copes when one of them suffers a stroke, and defines love in a way that I'd never seen portrayed in a movie before.

It was a lovely film. Sad, quiet, powerful.
Both Jean Louis Trintignant and Emmanuelle Riva are legends in French cinema, best known for work they did in their 30s, and to see them give such awesome performances here in their 80s was truly inspiring.

Not something I will easily forget!

See the trailer here.

The exchange of ideas is a key part of the human experience, don't you think? I would love to hear from you.
