In general, apart from the heroine, I still feel a little irritable - although this irritability is accompanied by a slight aggressiveness (this may be a state deliberately portrayed by the director), and it is related to the fact that HUPPERT himself has never been erased. Rebellious temperament - in other respects, the presentation of the life of a female philosophy teacher in her 60s is real and rhythmic. In the face of the impact of quiet thoughts and life, what she chooses is to keep Undecided expectations for the future (l'avenir), not like Fabien, must incorporate the future into the actions of the present reality.

    Aunt Huppert wears a lot of APCs!

    In the past, we were with you, talking about Rousseau reading Foucault's visit to Chateaubriand; now we look at each other and lament that you have to spend Christmas alone. She was living her intellectual life, but she got angry when she saw the flowers on the table, and was discouraged when she saw the black cat that ran away. The delicate flowers reflect the ridicule of life, and the distressed mouse is like the decadence of life. A wall separates the present and the shining past, a glass of wine, dedicated to tomorrow.

Things to Come quotes

  • Nathalie Chazeaux: I prefer a text a bit rhapsodic by someone who thinks out of the box over the bland writing of marketing fiends.

  • Nathalie Chazeaux: [quoting Jean-Jacques Rousseau] So long as we desire, we can do without happiness. We expect to achieve it. If happiness fails to come, hope persists, and illusion's charm lasts as long as the passion causing it. Thus, this condition suffices to itself and the anxiety it inflicts is a pleasure which supplants reality, perhaps bettering it. Woe to him who has nothing to desire! He loses everything he owns. We enjoy less what we obtain than what we desire, and are happy only before becoming so.
