stunning, although I might prefer "Sbatti Il Mostro In Prima Pagina" by Bellocchio

Yes, the screenplay is by Kaufman, a guarantee indeed. Gondry's Human Nature is also very beautiful (also with a screenplay by Kaufman), truly hilarious.

you can't dismiss a film like that with those bullshit claims about outdated and harmful hippie culture or the bourgeoisification of society; a review that oozes snobbery.

the book is very beautiful, a tough crime novel; I haven't seen the film (and Russel Crowe doesn't really entice me) but I've always heard good things about it (it won 2 Oscars: Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Supporting Actress (Basinger))

I finally listened to this as well: indeed, in this latest one, the influences of the Pixies have greatly diminished (almost disappeared entirely), in favor of a kind of crowd-pleasing brit pop twist. There’s no trace left of those acid and angry sounds from back in the day; everything sounds terribly boring and predictable, making me long for the good old days of "The Lonsome Crowded West" and "Moon & Antarctica."

Oh, sorry but I was referring to Desperate Hours with Mickey Rourke (awful), I didn’t even know it was a remake...

The plots of the two films are very similar, linear to the point of being banal; in fact, by "different setup," I meant precisely what you call "a stubborn attempt to evoke horror in the viewer," but which I would define as a disconcerting representation of human cruelty (and suffering). Then the stylistic differences are enormous: Haneke favors a minimalist, static direction that makes you feel "inside the film," as a firsthand spectator/witness to the cruel sadisms inflicted (and this is what evokes that sense of horror in us). Anyway, I realize that, precisely because of its nature, it may come across as excessive (and therefore not appealing); but that doesn't take away from the fact that it is a UNIQUE film.
