Strange film (slight spoilers)


Claude (Buchholz) speaks in quasi-religious tones and seems to be a Christ-like saviour until we, and Nanette, discover he's a Nazi and then his words seem to be subverted as though the devil himself were speaking in the guise of a benevolent god. What Nanette, a young and impressionable girl is hard to fathom but when we see her years later - looking much older than her years, so says her husband - we realise what she, Claude's 'angel' makes of him then.

Keep silent unless what you are going to say is more important than silence.
