Le Temps du Loup (The Time of the Wolf)


Watched this last night. I like Haneke as a director (though I found the Piano Teacher quite gruelling) and this was really absorbing. A short documentary on the DVD helped, when he said that he didn’t like narrative to take the weight of the film – I’m the opposite – but it made clearer what he was intending to do. Lots of remarkable images and sequences; and it is, of course, a vision of a post-Peak future.
