Finally! A movie I really liked. Albeit a disturbing and 2+ hour-long movie. Watched The White Ribbon today on DVD rented from the library.
This is the second time I've rented the DVD; the first time I rented it I couldn't bring myself to watch such a serious, heavy film. But once I started it tonight, I was pretty much enthralled by the story, despite the fact that it is quite deliberately paced. But not boring! Never boring. Michael Haneke, you have impressed me again with your twisted realism. After Funny Games and The Piano Teacher, I have to say this one was more palatable, and I think better overall.
Rating: 3.5/4
