Off the beaten path of life, three people stumble into a fateful encounter. Thomas, young and strong, has been dishonorably discharged from the army.

Filme ilk başladığımda, sosyo-politik altyapısının filmin önüne geçeceğini düşünmüştüm. Patron (Türk), patronun eşi (Alman) ve eski Alman askeri (işçi) ama filmde arzu ve tutkunun gücü sadece aşkı düşündürtmeye yetiyor. Bir neo-noir örneği olan film, keyifli müzikleri ve Petzold'un yalın sinematografisinde güzel bir seyir zevki.

A small-scale crime story set in provincial Germany. I enjoyed it a lot, despite its minimalism.

Some promising parts, but also a lot of bad ones - particularly the overly constructed dialogues and the crude screenplay.

Peztold holds the tension well, while being patient with the action, allowing it unfold slowly and deliberately. Further, the stillness of the camera contributes to a stifling atmosphere, which works as a counterpoint to the strong feelings each of the characters is feeling. So when emotion breaks out occasionally, there is a striking quality to it that stands out from the rest of the action. Very well done.

Basically well-made but overly familiar (reminding me especially of the better Revanche). Petzold's style no longer seems particularly artistically "minimal" and more simply functionally austere, which is fine but works against the film feeling like anything exceptional.

"We imagine his burning gaze and labored breath behind every wide shot that depicts Thomas and Laura's trysts, providing the sterile visuals with a voyeuristic intensity." - Joseph Jon Lanthier

Average. German take on "The Postman Always Rings Twice", it offers nothing fresh but has some decent performances. All in all, pretty average.
