Viewing Notes

Michael Haneke’s Caché (2005) falls into blindspot territory because it’s so highly rated and regarded. Believe I’ve picked this up before intending to watch but never made the time for it. Finally sat down and gave the film its due. Definitely a well-crafted mystery but didn’t wow me as I thought it might after the great build-up. I think that’s because the final arc really falls flat with no clear resolution. Daniel Auteuil is very good carrying the film but I think I just wanted more. And I want his apartment in the flick.
