*SPOILER FREE
What is loyalty? How far can devotion get for a partner? And what is the deepest stage of love?
Amour is a romantic drama following an aging couple, a devoted husband and a wife who's suffering a stroke, Georges and Anne on the final verse of the poem of their love and life.
This is not your typical love story. Amour, love, is the ultimate love story. Amour is the beginning and amour is the ending.
I still cannot believe that this romance was merely a performance by two actors before a camera, and not an actual reality of a couple who's, in health and in sickness, spent a lifetime together.
Michael Haneke writes a top-notch screenplay and masterfully directs every detail and emotion of a minimal story to the greatest stages of world cinema.
Amour is an honest depiction of true love and the responsibility that carries it. A modern masterpiece about life, death and the little love in between.
