saw this today and i have been trying for a while to get quotes that say what i want to say about the film- cus i am too chicken to say it myself. but everyone i find seems to think the film is a thriller about a school headmistress and a butcher and a serial killer. its true- it is a thriller set in the french countryside- but it is so much more.. the 'human condition' i think is what we hear in so many reviews about films .. (what does that mean anyways?) anyways- it explains the film for me..
the dreadful violence, the inherent madness of civilisation, the unexplainable things that draw us to each other and the lengths we can go to feel alive.
