Film7.0SuçDramHikaye, uluslararası yüksek finansın büyüleyici dünyasında geçiyor. Yönetmen Passer, ilhamını James Hadley Chase'in eserlerinden almıştır. Film, milyoner ama iktidarsız bir "Mavi Sakal" karakteri etrafında dönöyor; bu karakter, modern bir Rastignac'ı yıkımın eşiğine getirir. Entrika, psikoloji ve temel mantık, kara bir romantizmin tüm unsurlarıyla ustaca harmanlanmıştır. Güç, para, şehvet ve röntgencilikle iç içe geçen bu çılgın dünya, kabuslarla dolu yetişkin masallarına dönüşür. Senaryoyu Jesse Lasky Jr. ve Pat Silver yazmıştır. Yönetmen Passer, yetişkinlere yönelik bu hikayeyi baştan sona kaynama noktasında tutarak izleyiciyi kendine bağlar. Finalde, elinde bir koz daha saklayarak birinci sınıf bir sinema anlatıcısı olduğunu bir kez daha kanıtlar.

Dizi4.0DramThis two-part drama examines the fate of the generation of Austrians which came of age after World War II. The first part, "Arcadia," depicts the generational gap between 1950s teenagers and their parents, while the second part, "Injuries," shows this same group of characters twenty years later as they have grown up to become dysfunctional and suicidal adults. Regarded as the most significant of Michael Haneke’s early works, "Lemmings" contains incipient treatments of many of the themes he would later elaborate on in his theatrical features.
