    Haneke's masterpiece, 09 Cannes Palme d'Or. 1. It is not only a black fairy tale-like Nazi history, but also a cold outline of collective terrorism. 2. Black and white pictures, long shots, zero soundtrack, cold violence, memories interspersed with unverifiable truths, restraining repression but hitting people's hearts directly. 3. Bird-scissors-cross, the ultimate compromise of patriarchy. 4. The abuse after closing the door, the space outside the painting and the delay, thinking about Antonioni. 5. The metaphor of the doctor and the midwife. (9.5/10)

    Boring, another way of anti-plot. Hanneck’s best film is "Cache"...
