This isn't filmmaking....it's "still life" on film


My family and I got through about 20 minutes of it and then we HAD to turn it off. The suffering had to end.

Bela Tarr is an interesting guy but I'm not surprised he has said he hates 'stories'. His films have none. He just wants to capture people going about their daily lives, in all their boredom and tedium.

Tarr should just call them what they are....'wannabe documentaries'....and stop pretending like these are great works of fiction.

He's a travesty to the world of film, and a fraud.

Maybe you should take a break shoving Hollywood crap down your throat all the time. It will be good for you.
