Cache-a French film
 

This was difficult film to watch and I'm not sure I guessed who was the "One."
If anyone wants to email me with their guess at hotmail I am really interested.
I thought the acting was syperb. Binoche had one great scene but she wasn't her glamorous self.

Cigalechanta, Cache was a wonderful film. As far as who was the "one" (or "ones"), the last scene should have told you!

I've been wanting to see this movie, maybe I'll see it over the weekend and get back with you.

I got tired of watching the slow slooooow scenes of watching...but it held my attention through most of it although I got sort of impatient.
The couple seemed a bit on the testy side with each other , which did not make me love them or care that much, the part with the boy not coming home was so obvious, I like the actors but the film did not make my Best list :)
That one scene that is so shocking was just that, something to shock you out of the doze you might have fallen in while staring at someone watching lol.
Howard, don't hit me!! :D

I must say, the ending left me a bit confused. Do you think the son was complicit?

Shhhhhh....lol....there were only so many characters in the film. It had to be one of them....

Well, watching that paris house for so many minutes in Cache about 4 weeks ago stayed in my brain and led to me renting an apartment in Paris for 6 days next week! It somehow burrowed into my psyche and a NEEDED to go.........never has happened to me before. I think the "sons" were complicit (notice them conversing on screen left in the final scene) and the metaphor (well maybe not metaphor but it was some kind of message) was that the younger generation will join forces to atone for and/or expose the sins of the elders.......???? That's how decide to interpret it.At any rate I found that I couldn't stop thinking about the film.....and I love Binoche.

I really liked the house, all those books and the street. You will enjoy the apartment, marsha!

I tried so hard to see the street signs in the video to try to figure out in which arrondissement the apartment was in!

Scarlett, yes! I loved the feel of the house and I literally got up in the middle of the night two weeks ago and booked a trip and then checked with my husband in the morning........luckily he thought about it for 2 minutes and decided it was a great idea....we just came in from walking around on this COLD night in New York City area to "test" our layers for Paris.........even got him to wear one of my old berets.......we're having fun and we haven't even left yet.......all thanks to Cache......go figure

The opening scene shows the corner street sign that says rue de iris which is in the 13th. I spent alot of time on a forum devoted to this film. it's mind boggling some of the ibterpretations.

Marsha, I gonna try that :D

cigalechanta, would you mind sharing how to get to the forums on Cache? I'd love to read them. thanks.

I'm not cigalechanta, but I took a wild guess and Googled "Cache" and found a lot of those websites, including discussions.

When all else fails, try Google.

Boo to you people who revealed the ending!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, Scarlett, Cache is slow and deliberate. But, that's just the point!

Sorry, I don't usually even read the complete reviews of movies because, instead of actually critiquing them these days, I think they just summarize them and I want to go in a let the story unfold as I watch. I hate trailers for that reason because usually the "spell" the whole plot and many of the best lines/jokes out.
However, the initial question here was about an interpretation of the film, so I think if you hadn't yet see Cache you shouldn't have read the thread unless you wanted to know the ending and who the "one" was.....again I apologize but how can you comment intelligently if you can't discuss what you see?

Marsha: You'll see that many disagree about the ending.

cigalechanta, thanks for posting that website. The comments about Cache are fascinating.

This confirms that it is the 13th arr.
