Remake-ul din 2007 e exact ca cel din 1997, exceptand actorii si limba. Si totusi, mi se pare ca ceva s-a pierdut in filmul "U.S.". Un plus pe care l-as da originalului e limba germana care mi se pare mult mai potrivita pentru un film de o asemenea factura: psihotic, crud, murdar. Un alt atu al originalului sunt actorii, care fiindu-mi in totalitate necunoscuti in momentul in care am vazut filmul, au accentuat si mai mult senzatia de realitate, de oameni obisnuiti care merg in vacanta la cabana si ajung sa traiasca niste traume greu de expus in cuvinte si care pana la urma sunt neputinciosi in a-si salva vietile. E un film 100% Haneke; il apreciez pe regizor pentru ca e unicul care reuseste - prin filmele sale - sa nasca in spectator(adica in mine :)) ) ura, frustrare, greata, neputinta de nedescris si totusi, la sfarsit sa poate spune: da ma, cred ca a fost un film bun! Ce nu inteleg e de ce a tinut neaparat sa faca o varianta "americanizata" a filmului. Probabil gandindu-se ca a facut un film inedit si foarte bun, a vrut sa-l faca "public" in sensul ca daca ajunge in America, ajunge in toata lumea. Dar sunt convinsa ca nici un sfert din consumatorii de filme din State nu gusta genul asta de film, pentru ca nu se potriveste nicicum meniul de Mc...something cu french fries si Cola bine acidulata dupa care poti ragai in voie cu "Funny Games" :)) ... funny, huh? "Who are you betting on, hmmm? "
O chestie ciudata ce-am observat-o la Haneke e ca are 5 filme in care personajele principale se numesc Anna si Georg. Tre' sa aflu care-i faza :)
