What I Watched -- Amour

S picked up Amour from the library a while back.  I had it on my list of movies to see, but I couldn't remember the details of it.

Having now seen it, I remember why I wanted to, and I can say that it is heavy. It's the tale of a long-married couple, whose lives in retirement are lovely until Anne suffers a stroke.  Georges takes wonderful and delicate care of her in her limited state.  The end of their relationship leaves so many questions and so much space for reflection that even many weeks later I don't know how I feel about the film.

Perhaps that's the sign of a well-made movie.

Bottom line: a story of life and love and loss that will leave you thinking for a long time to come.
