Fantastic!
Am I Missing Something?
The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
A very worth seeing little french rural tragedy. I won't repeat the topic very well described above. But it's a shame that this film has not been better released in theatres. I even doubt it will be aired on a TV channel. I hope I am damned wrong. The characters are convincing; especially Carlo Brandt, who is usually under employed. This actor has a very big potential. He was terrific in LA SIRENE ROUGE or DEJA MORT. A character in the underground french movie industry. This story takes place in Vosges mountains, not far from German border. I thought of Pierre Pelot's novels, for those among you who could know him. But, as I told in the summary line, it's not a fast paced film. On the contrary. But not a boring one either. Worth watching.
