France 2012

Ratings from other sources

Rotten Tomatoes 8.5/10











My ratings 8.0/10
A retired couple face new challenges in their love and devotion towards each other when one of them falls sick. The dialogue and silent moments when words is inadequate highlight the film. An experience that might strike a similar chord in real life.

My favourite quotes from the film:
But imagination and reality have little in common

My impressions:

Love
The eternal conundrum
How strong is it

Can it stand the test of time
Through health and sickness
Till death do us part

Or will there be a breaking point
When love becomes so fragile, brittle
Waiting for the straw that breaks the camel's back

Giving up under tremendous pressure
Which others might condemn
While others might understand

Or will it just be another manifestation
Another form of love
In a different guise
