I really want to start off this review by suggesting my readers to, if you haven't already, to really watch some international cinema. You would find some awesome stories, great direction, and exciting, thrilling characters. I used to be bias and not enjoy international cinema but recently I have realized that they are sometimes better than half the movies that come out here in America. I highly suggest to explore international cinema because you will enjoy it more than you may believe. So for this week's taste of international cinema I decided to check out Haneke's Caché (Hidden). Haneke caught my eye with Funny Games and I was always interested in seeing what else he had to offer for cinema. So what is Caché (Hidden) and will it be another great piece of international cinema? Read on and find out...
Caché (Hidden) is about a regular family the Laurents including Georges (Daniel Auteuil), Anne (Juilette Binoche), and their son Pierrot. Their normal life is shaken when they start receiving video tapes of his family and his life. The tapes are outside of his house, following him, or even taping his conversations. Since the police won't help, Georges must dig into his past to try to discover who is doing this and Anne must dig the truth out of her husband all while trying to keep her family from falling apart. Who is sending the tapes? What in Georges' past is the key to the mysterious camera man? Watch Caché (Hidden) or read my review to find out...
