2 days after having seen Hidden/Cache the latest movie by Michael Haneke with Daniel Auteuil and Juliette Binoche, i am still in shock. It was released last year but i just stumbled upon it..
I need to watch it a couple of times more to really appreciate it fully. But all i can tell you is GO SEE IT THAT MOVIE.
I will not spoil the story but it is about a couple that receives videos of themself and that become more and more private. All i can tell you is that this movie is creating a strong polemic and there is no one way of reading/understanding it.
This is a wonderful psycho thriller and very powerful scenario (no wonder it received a prize at Cannes movies festival)
This movie leaves you at the end with a sense of mystery and most of the of work has to be done by the viewer.
Haneke is a master in creating ouf of the box movies, playing cruelly and shockingly with the viewer (if you saw Funny Games or the Pianist then you’ll know what i mean)
The last time i felt that with a movie was when i saw Lost Highway and Mulholland Drive by David Lynch one of my top 5 director.
Here is the trailer (here with subtitles in english)
And here is a scene of the making of with Haneke directing
do u happen to pick it up in a local DVD rent? wonder if it reached the blokbusters here.
