The real piano teacher in the absurd

Best Actress at Cannes.
Not to mention, Isabelle Huppert's acting skills are really superb.
Zero expression, but so real.
Even if she is crazy, is this handsome, affectionate at first, cruel at the end more selfish?
Can't love her respectfully even if she's crazy?
Men and women must have very different positions watching the film.
The letter, the mother-daughter scene, on the ice rink, the fight scene, the final decision.
The process is so natural.
Both the hero and heroine speak French beautifully and indifferently.
I couldn't help thinking of my own mother.
All in an instant.

    That silent long shot without narrative is really powerful, like an invisible knife swiping on the viewer's eyeballs. I think Haneke knows the effect very well, and uses it in "Fun Games" as well.

    I'm really tired of this kind of movie that sets the protagonist to grow up in a disabled family, does not understand self-salvation and distorts his personality.
