Hidden - Michael Haneke

The film begins with a static shot of a house. There is no sound in the shot just looking at the singe house. The opening credits appear and are almost being typed like a type writter onto the screen. The audience is compelled to read the credits as there is nothing else going on in the screen. About 20 seconds in there is a person walking down the street, which now gives and indication to the audience that it is a camera shot and not just a picture. Soon enough there is some dialouge but you can't see the people who are saying it. The audience start to get an idea of what is happening and starting to build up a idea of the purpose of the shot.

My opnion on the film is very good. I really like the suspence the director has made and like the situation the he has created. At the momment I feel confused on what is going on and how the film is going to develop next. I want to continue watching the film.

  1. I agree about the suspense. It's definitely worth watching the whole film.
