L’Avenir (Things to Come)

This movie was beautiful to watch; the music was particularly nice and it seemed they often let a scene run out just to get in a bit more of the music. Isabelle Huppert is one of our favourite foreign actresses and we’ve seen her in a number of films. With English subtitles you knew you were missing out on some of the subtleties of the characters but in some instances their feelings were perfectly clear.

On the way home Pat and I talked about the music, the acting, and the region of France the movie was shot in. And then we both agreed that we really didn’t know what the story was “about” but we enjoyed it anyway.
