The Village of the Damned is a film to be remembered of.
Can you?
Well it is the intellectual sophisticated form of it. Much more worked out.
It never let you rest, always put you at un-ease.
A bit of revenge from children whose education ended in all wars, in this case in the first one.
And we know what happen later.
Education, the Wall -Between parents and their off springs.
The perfidy of a sadistic well meant, seemingly well meant, logic of adults at how how to raise children.
Incredibly well played, perfectly film, in every details fabulous!
Pedant is the French word for it
Haneke IS the school teacher, and some time I see a rope between this one and l Enfant Sauvage.
A familiarity, kind of even if only vague.
Well no doubt a masterpiece.
One of the greatest since a long long time.
Would I see it twice? Never. Who like to involve in such a way ?
Not me. Not twice.
