Gilles Outstanding suspense both criminal and erotic Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/11/22 Full Review Audience Member A weird man is not up to much. He works as a tailor and when he is home he only watches his cute, young neightbour girl thorugh the windows. That's pretty creepy. When it turns out that she does not mind that, and even starts hanging out with him, we are in for a weird relationship and when you throw a murderinvestication in the mix we also gets some excitiment. Pretty cool plot, based on an elder film. It has great performances and it looks quite good. It's nothing too special, but this short film is well worth a watch. 6.5 out of 10 bowling tricks. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Like a lot of great movies, the ending probably doesn't appeal to everyone. I really like it, because no matter what reason you think is behind the "betrayal", all carry because of what kind of person Monsieur Hire has revealed himself to be. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member An unseen and unusual strange story of lonliness, desire and love. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member A disappointing movie. I was sucked in by prof reviewers. There is some good stuff here. The two lead actors are uniformly excellent. The story was engaging for the first 30 mins. or so. But, the final resolution of the story; and the tying up of loose ends did not make any sense. This is a REAR WINDOW type of story. But, this guy only looks into one window. Of course, we understand that because a beautiful, often scantily clad, woman lives there. Interestingly for a French film, we never see her nude nor during any of her frequent love-making sessions. But, what is going on with all the other people on that side of the building? This lonely, window-peeper guy professes profound love for a woman he has hardly spoken to. It seems more like infatuation, tinged with lust. I suppose a pre-teen or teenager could make this mistake. But, our protagonist is a mature male, in his late 30s or 40s. And, its not like this guy is not getting any sex. We see him visiting a brothel where he apparently is a regular customer. We would have to think this persons psyche is extremely fragile, or even pathological. Ultimately, the story is inconsistent. The ending/denouement is not believable. I was not willing to go along for that ride. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member the impact of the film hits you when the credits roll. exhilarating watch; didn't quite expect the turn of events nearing the very end. tragic really, poor monsieur hire. the two protagonists were darn good , as was the script and the complementary cinematography.
