1988/Kieslowski

I really enjoyed the opening half, where Kieslowski shows some of his best editing skills as of yet, going back and forth between the young man, the cab driver, and the lawyer. Voice over is also used with great effectiveness in this section. This was also the first segment of the series that skipped a large portion of time, with the story taking place over a year's span. Overall, I wasn't quite sure if the young man's moral transformation was justified and/or explained. Perhaps this is better handled in the longer version. 5 down, 5 to go. Really looking forward to segment 6.

3.5/5 Stars


I dream in widescreen.
