LES RELATIONS Combien de verité quand l'esprit l'interprete
I've mixed feelings about it. While it feels
idk how to feel
Overall an interesting movie. I was really invested in it while watching, but the ending is just not it. It's vague and not clear.
Some points of the narrative are not as clear as they should be and some of them are actually irrelevant to the plot, such as the storyline about Alexander's father.
The trial is indeed catchy, especially if you're interested in law, but its ending is absolutely predictable. It was as if the whole testimonies were absolutely meaningless and the jury already knew who to condemn from the start.
2 and a half hour that resulted in nothing but a blurry and unclear image.
