Seeing Sandra Bullock in a drama was unusual. I didn't expect that from her. She surprised me in a positive way. Not only her—but especially her—was outstanding. The whole film captivated me from the beginning and didn't let go until the end. And that's exactly what I like about the film. Many films of this...

I tried. I was even looking forward to it. But I was disappointed. Nothing about this film captivated or moved me. There was no story. I found the cinematography unappealing, dull, and empty. I could hardly follow the conversations because the dialogue was often very unclear, which annoyed me greatly. The entire film was boring...

What a breathtaking play in an oppressively sad atmosphere, in which so much happens on different levels. I laughed and cried, but mostly I was just deeply moved. Outstanding acting and staging. Simply fantastic. Never before has a film moved me in this way. For me, it was a deeply intense emotional and physical experience....

I'm rediscovering films. I like a long story without interruption or cliffhangers, which are so common in series just to keep you hooked and watching the next episode.

We quickly plunge from the parking lot into the forest, but the sounds of the nearby road accompany us for quite a stretch. The deeper we immerse ourselves in the dense forest, the quieter it becomes, until the noise disappears completely. Here I finally hear a few birds. And then I let go. For over...

I don't know where we've ended up, but it seems to be a fascinating place. Yesterday evening I was alone on a small stroll through Bergues – little more than a concentrated cluster of mostly old brick buildings that form the historic core. Lined up like firmly glued dominoes; if you were to pull one...

I am so full of rage that I fear I might wrench the steering wheel and crash into something. Into one of the many cars clogging the road on both sides, or into the nearest tree, the nearest wall, the nearest railing. I don't want to be here, not at this time and under these...
