Review of Climates

Climates (2006)
7/10
Serious rhapsody
24 November 2009
The middle-aged university teacher has an affair with a younger girl. They are not happy and he acts on the edge of brutality. It all ends, but none of them seem to want that.

The camera often stands still and the acting is made mostly by the eyes. It's clever made, a different way of narrating and full of drama.

But is this drama through miming and slow-talk enough? It can be, but not really in the hands, or eyes, of these actors. But the task has also been extremely difficult. It takes very much to go through with this. But the film-makers come close. Really close, but anyway, it's all a little rhapsodic.
