Amour tells the
story of Georges and Anne, an old married couple whose love is put to the test
when Anne falls victim to a stroke. Director Michael Haneke shows the horrors
of growing old and the fears and frustrations that come along with it. While
the film tells a beautiful story that everyone can emotionally connect to, it
could have told the same story in half the amount of time. Scenes drags on much
longer than necessary and caused me to lose interest throughout the movie. However the love and commitment
portrayed beautifully by Emmanuelle Riva to his dying wife makes this touching
movie one worth seeing.
