Review of Still Life

Still Life (I) (2013)
9/10
Not life at all
24 March 2024
Warning: Spoilers
This is two films : the one prior to the the last few minutes then what follows. Story is unique to me and the casting of the lead is just right. If any film is a character study this is the one . Did not see the key moment coming especially as it was set up in only two seconds. Feel that I've seen the same sort of closing before but never this effective.

The reality that life is cruel and merciless has ever been more dramatically presented. I could literally feel the shift in the protagonist's outlook from resignation to hope . The smile on his face at the end is the character's and the writer's telling you what life is about.
