Sublime in the extreme, beautiful and simple, yet masterfully directed — 1 year ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

This is quite the solemn experience, much like Antonioni’s “L’Avventura”. A family gathers around the grand-mère of the family in the country, the keeper of artwork by a great, late artist. She keeps telling her children what should go where once she’s gone, too. The family image is special, and the direction is sublime in the extreme; where my Hollywood sense of watching films is painfully blown-up, I felt that this film told it like it should be, in a way; it took me on a journey. I could not help but feel that part of it was filled with symbolism and free will, real characters and a sense of laissez-faire. All in all: beautiful.
