★★★☆☆ Mia Hansen-Løve's fifth feature, Things to Come, is an introspective exploration of a woman losing her moorings and facing up to old age. Isabelle Huppert plays Nathalie, a high school philosophy teacher. When Heinz (André Marcon), her husband of twenty-five years, also a philosophy lecturer, admits he has met someone else, she asks "Why did you tell me?" When he reveals that he is going to move in with her, Nathalie responds "I thought you would love me forever." It's a heartbreaking moment, haunting in its simplicity but for the most part, Hansen-Løve's screenplay tackles profound questions with an intensity that some filmgoers might find off-putting.
