2012. France/Austria. Dir: Michael Haneke. With Emmanuelle Riva. 127 min.
An aging husband struggles to face his wife’s physical decay after she suffers a stroke – a tough subject, certainly, but Haneke’s astounding Oscar winner handles it with grace, creating a balance between the haunting and the heartfelt. This may be the most terrifying affirmation of love’s power yet put on film. Presented as part of The Tournées Festival.
Tonight. 8pm. Goldsmith Family Cinema. $5.
