Das weisse Band

That was the film we went to see yesterday with my German class.

I didn't like it. Some people in my clas did however, so I guess it's all down to opinion. It's in black and white and about the Protestant extremism in Austria before World War 1(apparently). People get beaten to death and it is strongly implied that a girl gets raped by her father (Guess what? I used to know the girl that plays her. Never thought I'd see her again, especially in these circumstances). Oh and a boy gets tied to his bed.

The one good point is the character of Rudi. He's so cute!

On other news, I am now officially a Baccalauréat candidate. I have also figured out why my scanner is not working (it would be more accurate to say that I've found a way around it: it involves my old computer and the shuffling of many an USB key)
