Cold War - Comentarios

...this is about the dark heart of Poland itself. The wounded love at its centre surfaces from the depths of cynicism, exhaustion and state-sponsored submission and fear.

Lukasz Zals kristallklara foto är lika vackert som sprött med flera distinkta lager av svarta, vita och gråa nyanser.

Filmen bader i smukke billeder. Vinterlandskaber, religiøs ikonografi og panoreringer langs Seine-bredden, som også Tarkovskij og Dreyer sikkert havde nikket anerkendende til.

A tempestuous romance on national themes makes for chilly viewing in Pawel Pawlikowski’s monochrome drama.

Glenn Close is as memorable here as she’s ever been.

...a haunted romantic epic in miniature, like a novel written with the careful, precise economy of a short story.

...a dark musical full of silences and ellipses.

An aching film on such exquisite pains of impossible love, Pawel Pawlikowski’s “Cold War” concurrently swells your heart and breaks it, just like the sore memory of a lover that drifted away from your life...

En nostalgisk och snygg film som har potential att nå utanför Cannes.

...den starkaste filmen om kalla kriget sedan muren föll.

...en sällsynt vacker film om svår kärlek.

...en fængslende kærlighedshistorie krydret med smægtende musik fra folk til jazz og gennemsyret af slavisk melankoli, hvor tilværelsen både kan være ulidelig let og alt for tung om hjertet.

...en passionerad, vacker och vältrimmad kärleksfilm...
