Review of 71 Fragments of a Chronology of Chance (1995) by Sara - — 21 Dec 2009

This is the 4th Haneke movie I watched, after the third I told myself that would be the last, but somehow I could not help myself. I don't know why, because they often left me feel even worse than I did before pressing 'Play Movie' but its certainly far more interesting that the usual dull Hollywood movies.

There seem to be a theme: lack of communication in society, effects/role/importance of Media, isolation which often results in a violent backlash by the individuals. There are some very very slow bits in this film, like watching a guy hitting ping pong balls for over 3:00 minutes.

.. but at least the film won't go under the list of films I forgot after a week.
