Giving this a second shot, I was once again impressed by its formal choices, its cinematography, its production design, and its overall dread.
But when it comes to the actual story of internal religious conflict, I felt left out. The one-on-one dialogue considering matters of faith leave me wanting to read rather than watch. Maybe then I’d have the patience and time to consider them more deeply.
My only hope here was Sandrine Bonnaire; anytime she’s on screen, i felt drawn in and engaged. Without her, i felt listless.
