La Moustache

France

This one was a puzzler...made deliberately complex and enigmatic...with no apparent resolution to all the mysteries the script provides. Nice looking film, sympathetic players, good use of locations all hid from the audience the fact that this is a movie about nothing more than puzzling the audience.

Of course, it's always possible to ascribe meaning to anything and I could probably write 10,000 words interpreting the film but I don't think it deserves that level of attention or analysis. Sometimes it's best to just say there's no there there and move on. Like now.
