3/1: (not) a zombie movie
I'm under the weather today, so I'm trying to take it easy. I spent part of the afternoon watching Les Revenants, a 2004 French movie about recently deceased people who come back from the dead & the living people who have to adjust to their return. The movie is beautifully done, and it's not a horror film at all. (Not that horror films are bad things--just that it's rare to see a movie with this subject matter that's not a horror film.) It's very philosophical, asking viewers to ponder what it means to know someone and to love them. Love and grief can be selfish emotions, and this movie gently gets us to see that, as part of who we are.
