Caché

A TV talk show host (Daniel Auteuil) and his wife (Juliette Bincoche) are terrorized by a stalker who sends the couple disturbing drawings and protracted videotaped recordings of both their Paris residence and the man’s childhood home, eventually causing a rift in their marriage and reawakening haunting memories of early childhood shame. Michael Haneke’s Cache (Hidden) is a methodically composed and exceptionally patient and profound work that hypnotically draws the viewer in (like many great films do) and makes its larger points not through preaching but by craft and expose. **** out of ****
