Review of Caché (2005) by William J — 24 Oct 2009
After watching the interview w/ Michael Haneke and thus knowing deeper about the director as well as the film, CACHE is simple but awsome. It's totally different from the normal commercial movies that Haneke managed the plot in his whole way.
The couple's relationship after sth big happened is a cleavage instead of a unity. The movie has a open ending w/ a wide long shot at the school gate, but it's weird and make me uneasy that Georges and Majid's sons is talking in the bottom left corner.
I love the long shots to distinguish the tapes and reality, so scilence and slow, the contradition between the two actually is revealed from the pace of the shots. The opening is started from the first tape that the Laurents received.
When the voice begins, this misleads me to think is it from the stalker? But if yes, it will be too "normal". But the answer is NO, that makes me admire Haneke's story telling skills.
