Revanche (2008). Doubly defined as revenge or second chance, the flow of Revanche refuses the denouement thoughout. A wonderful contrast of opposites, city versus country, upright versus thuggery and depravity, metropolitan versus peasant, this becomes an existential study more of similarities than differences. The story itself was a coincidental treat, dark and brooding though it was. The acting was phenomenal, the characters curiously interesting. Even the dialog exuded that hard to define essence, unconcocted maybe. The direction was sublime, with camera shots that infused the viewer with an almost ethereal sensation. Simply a wonderfully authentic tale set Eastern Europe. Ashe.
