Review of Abuse of Weakness (2013) by Matty S — 24 Aug 2014
In its last haunting moments, ABUSE OF WEAKNESS underscores how really brilliant Isabelle Huppert is. But the film simply has no insights to share about a very interesting predicament that actually happened to filmmaker Catherine Breillet who I usually adore.
This film lacks her usual insight and passion. Perhaps the embrarrassment of the story was simply too much for her to handle. But Huppert is simply astonishing in every way especially in that final still moment when she is defiant, humiliated, childish all at once.
Staggering.
