Michael Haneke's "The White Ribbon": CAN'T WAIT. It killed at Cannes, the liberal Godless communist film festival where all things dreary and horrifying are celebrated. So you know you will love it when you are tired of your Terminators! (Warning: the only embeddable videos have stupid, pre-roll ads, so to see a little bit you actually have to suffer to watch the suffering.) From what little we can tell, it's basically like The Seventh Seal meets A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy. Minus any comedy or sex.

This gives me an idea; Sacha Grey in Black & White. With subtitles. There's your film!
No, it's a Michale Haneke film. The horse is going to bite her hand off any minute now, as symbol of the corruption of pre-war society. Or because he's hungry.
