Now that I'm talking about all-or-nothing, I'll just say one more thing: that film incorporates social context into the narrative, while Rosetta lacks -- but, I don't see how deeply it digs into the hearts of the characters. This is not a reference to the new wave of decades ago. What is the retelling of the times? This "respectable" retelling is utterly tedious. Geez, it doesn't even have a bit of Jansenism flavor, how can it be offensive?
This seemingly down-to-earth movie is actually malnourished and has no appealing power.
