Amour

NOMINATED FOR FIVE OSCARS, INCLUDING BEST MOTION PICTURE

A tender love story — from Michael Haneke?! Yes and no. Casting two icons of French cinema as an elderly couple facing the inevitable, Haneke “achieves levels of intimacy previously unknown in his work [in a] unique and unforgettable film…. [Jean-Louis Trintignant, A Man and A Woman and Emmanuelle Riva, Hiroshima Mon Amour] give performances of breathtaking power and beauty. Prepare for an emotional wipeout.” (Rolling Stone)
