Afterschool (2008) Brilliant. Rarely seen private high school life portrayed so accurately — a beautiful nod to Michael Haneke’s Caché & Benny’s Video while maintaining a specificity to the disillusionment of the young American information age.

Caché (2005)

This film is great. I’m just starting to explore Michael Haneke’s work. My interest was peaked when I learned of Christian Berger’s unique lighting technique. This is the second film by Haneke I’ve seen, after Funny Games (2007), which I enjoyed thoroughly.

Right off the bat I’ll say Caché is a film I have zero complaints about. I loved every second of it. I barely know how to describe it, but I felt like I was just on the same page with the filmmakers through every shot, and every edit. I could feel each cut coming. I felt like I was editing the movie with my eyes.

Maybe that’s just another way of saying I agree with the choices made that were reflected in the final film. Be it directorial, editorial, cinematographic or otherwise. That’s such a rare thing to find. I loved this movie. It’s just my type of film, really. I’m excited to check out The White Ribbon!
