Anatomía de una caída, Анатомия падения
ANATOMY OF A FALL is an engrossing courtroom drama that packs a miniseries’ worth of story in two & a half hours. So meticulously plotted & presented. It’s the kind of thought-provoking procedural where the truth is never certain and the power is granted to the audience to determine it’s true outcome. Sandra Hüller is extraordinary in a cant-look-away performance that will grip you from beginning to end.

I can't believe how good this is. Detailed marriage anatomy and self-retrospection involve far more aspects than family. The complex family relationship, the intense debate in the trial scene and the bilingual game fully reflect the subtlety of language which is rarely seen in movies, coupled with Sandra's perfect performance makes people immersed in it, and the 2.5 hours pass in the blink of an eye.
The director's previous work Sibyl was very underrated and I’m so happy and proud to see her coming back with this masterpiece, the relationship between men and women was described so well by her.
This is Sandra Hüller’s world and we just live in it. Her two films (Zone of Interest) are top rated in the jury grid. If Sandra doesn't win an Oscar, I will rewatch it ten times.

Nur vordergründig ein Whodunit-Gerichtsfilm, verhandelt Justine Triet in ihrem stark inszenierten und vor allem von Sandra Hüller noch stärker gespielten „Anatomy Of A Fall“ nicht nur eine faszinierend-komplexe Beziehung zwischen zwei Autor*innen, sondern darüber hinaus auch gleich noch die Frage nach der zwingenden Konstruktion von Wahrheit.

Sandra Hüller nem tud hibázni Cannes-ban, ebben is tökéletes! Nagyon izgi a bírósági dráma (a bírónő igazi scene stealer) de még inkább ez a női karakter és a toxikus kapcsolat, amit széncincálnak a tárgyalóteremben. A versenyprogram újabb csúcspontja.
“My job is to write a fiction so compelling that it destroys reality.”
The dangers of pouring one’s innermost thoughts and feelings into their art and thus forever exposing them to the world so they can interpret them as they see fit.
Anatomy of a Fall is a compelling courtroom drama about a novelist’s presumed involvement in her husband’s death, and in which the question of her guilt goes beyond whether she pushed him off the window or not.
Did she murder him? Did she murder him even if she didn’t? Perhaps there are more ways in which you can kill a person, and the level of blame that befalls you cannot be decided by a jury.
Justine Triet masterfully directs the crumbling of the main couple’s marriage, intermixing glimpses into their fractured lives with scenes from the trial in a way that will leave you wondering what actually happened until well after the movie is over.
