Ode to feminism
30 December 2023
She clearly killed him. I don't have any doubt about that. The movie depicts the life of a woman who forces his man into her world, setting her rules in the relationship, blaming him for her unreachable happiness, never saying sorry for being the key part of his downfall. She is lost in connection with her daily life in the French mountains, and with her child.

The part when the couple argue (listened during the trial) is for me the most beautiful and dramatic part of this movie. I would have loved to be more touched by the wonderful landscapes but the movie didn't make it, the snow and the mountains look more like a gimmick.

She probably looks strong as a lady, and weak as a broken human being. Her anger seems to be her motivation to kill him, and his last error was to put loud music to annoy her, and it was too much for her to handle.

When her son decided to support her during the trial and believe her, I understand that you can be the most horrible person but your child can save you as a mother.

At the end, she said to her lawyer "it doesn't feel like I win something" Yes, she didn't win. She killed her husband, took away the most important person to her child. She will keep his death as a sentence and she will have to live with her child, life getting harder than before. She lost everything.
