Three Colors: Red

Words can't describe how disappointed I am in this. Can't believe my eyes reading and watching the review videos praising it. Empty and hollow I don't even know how to describe it.
It js kept going and going with literally nothing happening, no script, no emotinal core, no-

I like the concept

Beautiful film, part of an amazing trilogy of the 3 colors films!

Despite the rave reviews, I found myself connecting to this film the least out of the trilogy. It deals with a lot of themes, not a face value, but nothing really struck a chord for me.

The story itself is sweet, about companionship and the whole effect of chance with how things play out. Tons of metaphors too; broken glass, storms etc. how they represent the unpredictable- it’s all very clever, but I just never found it overly interesting.

I liked how the trilogy was connected through the event at the end - again with the storm metaphor coming into play. The trilogy as a whole is a fantastic one - I really believe all of them would benefit for a rewatch as a lot of what it says is extremely subliminal.

Very poetic this was Krzysztof Kieślowski’s last picture, certainly a culmination of his thoughts and philosophies.
