I had high hopes for this film since it won the Palme d'Or. And there was a Border Collie! And many possible killers.
But then. It went on and on with boring court scenes. And got duller and duller.
I finally gave up and went to Wikipedia to find out the ending, only to learn that the kid poisoned his dog on purpose to test a theory! Nope, nope, nope. On top of that, nobody is really sure whodunnit at the end of the movie.
I watch a lot of foreign films, and a lot of French films. This one is just plain bad.
So save your money. If you absolutely have to watch it, wait till it's streaming for free.
Palme d'Or -- what were you thinking??
