“Film is 24 lies per second at the service of truth, or at the service of the attempt to find the truth” -Michael Haneke
Haneke has developed a style that articulately fuses social critique with a cinema of transcendent beauty in its precision, purpose and humanity. Formal disruption and sly reminders of artifice do nothing to erase the heart of these frequently unnerving dramas; but there is solace to be found in confronting our fears – assurance in their universality.
🎹 THE PIANO TEACHER
Isabelle Huppert gives a performance of astounding emotional intensity as Erika Kohut, a repressed middle-aged woman who teaches piano at the Vienna Conservatory. When one of Erika’s students, the handsome and assured Walter Klemmer, attempts to seduce her, the barriers that she has carefully erected around her claustrophobic world are shattered – unleashing a previously inhibited extreme and uncontrollable desire.
