• ANATOMY OF A FALL

    From Bill Anderson@21:1/5 to All on Wed Feb 21 16:56:37 2024
    It is an endless, interminable, monotonous, examination of how a man came
    to be dead. Eventually, with plot threads dangling in abundance, the movie ended and I found that to be a good thing. I will concede that the lead actress, Sandra Huller, did a magnificent job and will probably win an
    Oscar for her performance.

    I'm afraid you've put this on my watch-list. Says it's a true story, so
    maybe newspapers, etc. can cauterize its dangling plot threads...

    I liked it and its veracity is bolstered by true-crime stories.


    I stand by my critique of the dreadful pace. And the more I think about it
    the more I dislike the deus ex machina resolution, if there really was a resolution. I am just glad there was no crazy plot twist at the end. For
    all its glaciality, the story did remain true to itself.
