One of the most underrated psychological thrillers of all time.. Michael Shannon and Jessica Chastain were Impeccable.. But it is the story throughout or the lack of it.. There is a morbid Solace in the potent uncertainty.. The storm probably symbolizing the tumultuous turn our lives take... And how we try to handle it and eventually falter as we are Mortals.. A trinket of hope in the certainty of despair followed by a clinical plummet..Take shelter tells us how devious expected premonitions are when they unexpectedly become a reality..

If perceptions represented ideas.. This film is surely a plethora of concepts and conjectures tampered and juxtaposed against one another gyrating around one particular prospect.. The presence of a lady the previous year in the same place.. An Impeccable example of non linear story telling.. The coherence at times befuddles the audience at times keeping them enthralled at the same time.. A perspective representation like no other last year at marienbad is a must watch..

A Domain quite dexterously Constructed by Tarkovsky Where tranquility becomes Your greatest nemesis. Happiness Is not happiness anymore but a facade beguiling mankind With Chaos and tomfoolery. The Zone is a domain mankind Once desired. The Room represents Peace for a short span of time in its purest form. Peace that is elusive in the Modern World. Therefore Categorizing the Urge for Peace as a forbidden desire. According to Tarkovsky Man Is nothing but a better Version of a monster Who has Pledged to bludgeon the remainder Of Content and Mirth left in Us with materialism and Skepticism. We are all stalkers trying to grasp onto every bit of Mirth and content with pugnacious potency in dark reticence.

Disturbingly mesmerizing. Haunting and beautiful. Haneke takes us to a nowhere that is everywhere. Nothingness filled with everything. Everything filled with depravity regrets and misconceptualised juvenile errors. Quintessential display of apathy. A scar guaranteed.

What is the true definition of happiness? Fishing and collecting wild strawberries far away from the pomp and cacophony of a world filled with guile and pretentious men and ideologies.
