7/10
The non spoken part is the script of the movie
29 December 2013
It handles many facets of love, but one thing is sure : This movie triggers you for thinking about the situation and making up part of the story ( the non spoken part ). You recognize situations of a marriage, any marriage, and you move in the shoes of Margot and what love is and can cause. It is about the routine actions, feelings, way of relationship and sex in a marriage, that can become annoying in a marriage. With the result that many at these moments are weak for other relationships, more adventured ones with other feelings. Margot finds that in Daniel, the neighbor, while her husband Lou is more "that what you have and know so well". Margot is searching for herself, to find a way to accomplish with both men, fulfilling her needs by both and giving her to both. What she misses with one she finds in the other. A no way out. The script is OK, but it are the non spoken parts, the body language which tells you even more about Margot's feelings. Michelle Willems makes the movie, without her there wouldn't be a movie. She is a good actress and makes this movie as another prove of it ( Don't forget Blue Valentine "). What I didn't liked that much (and therefor the 7/10 rating) is the last part of the movie, which goes that fast that the movie ends faster you could ever imagine. It seems the director saw the movie's running time and had to end it leaving you with the thinking and filling up of the final gaps.
