The TVI Take
2012 Palme d'Or winner. Michael Haneke's unflinching portrait of an elderly couple as the wife suffers a series of strokes.
Exceptional cognitive demands from the moral and emotional complexity of watching love expressed through suffering. High educational value about aging, dignity, and end-of-life care. Jean-Louis Trintignant and Emmanuelle Riva are extraordinary.
