Serre moi fort

Top badass moment? Actresses that can really play the piano; no faking for this film, they’re the real deal. It’s all very clever and arty and stuff, but if I wanted my walls to need to resemble a complex murder investigation or corporate training event, for me to make sense of it - think Post-It notes and string - then I’m not sure it's worth it. It's flashback and fantasy Hell, with a narrative more tangled up than 1,000 playful kittens in a wool factory. No cats, chainsaws or decapitations.

A really interesting film, well worth a watch. For long stretches it feels confused and overly pretentious, but by the end its kaleidoscopic narrative starts to make sense and is massively rewarding to the viewer. The 'twist' is not so much a twist, but more of a heavily foreshadowed reality that emerges from a fog of flashback and daydream. All in all, a creative way of showcasing emotion without being at all predictable.

This is a somewhat thoughtful film. Quite an arty film, showing different sides or extremes of the same story with different people, though I did feel a bit confused about what stories directly related to the main character, what was happening in real time or which were flashbacks and the like, it was a little confusing. Generally, I thought the son did well at portraying his anger and sadness at his mum no longer being around and it has some nice moments. A decent film, if a little confusing
