Amour (2012)

Happy Valentine's Day! What better way to celebrate than to discuss the film that is literally called 'love', 2012's Best Foreign Language winner, Amour. A tour de force of the everyday, Michael Haneke's unsentimental look at an aged couple and their struggles is nonetheless an emotional rollercoaster of that dogged specter that stalks us all: getting old. Amy and Steve discuss the impact of the rote and boring, an accurate look at how love REALLY looks, removed from the Hollywood shine. We talk acting, pigeons and how this movie does not get the technical credit it really, really deserves. Is amour, no? Thanks for listening.
