Review of The Blue Room (2014) by Netflic — 11 Oct 2014
This is a crime story based on one of Georges Simenon's novels. It is as French as it can be.
The movie is made as a series of flashbacks between a bedroom episodes (blue bedroom as you can guess) and interrogation scenes. It is like a puzzle, details are coming slow, piece by piece, and you are getting the whole picture. Or not.
Attention to detail is amazing.
There were few things that bothered me though: a drop of blood looked too unreal, the protagonist was permanently dazzled.
The movie is left intentionally open-ended, leaving plenty of room to discuss possible perpetrators of the crime. Which is probably not bad but I left a theater somewhat disappointed.
