Reply to "MOVIES: What are you watching?"

Amour, 20 minutes--click. I think there's just a lot of bad filmmaking here. I don't understand the too long static shot of the audience preparing to watch the piano concerto. I don't get the husband who, regardless of how old he is, does't get on the horn to the amubulence when his wife's obviously stroking out. And then we spend another 7 minutes before he finally says, "I should call the doctor." Followed with another poorly framed and weirdly static shot of him talking to his daughter ceaselessly.

PS, 16 minutes was all we could take of the aimless Side Effect. When we got to the Repulsion moment, that we all knew was coming, that was it. I guess it goes on to be clever, but I thought even the music was bad.
