At all times, having an affair with our past is usually inevitable. Much of our conditions are put into the present solely as placeholders for preferred circumstances that may never come back. Independently, that is the case. But when clashed together collectively, it’s what ignites humanity’s fire. Miscommunications are happening because we cannot perfectly read all the liaisons that are happening in our partner’s head. Both Sides of the Blade is Claire Denis’s love triangle drama concentrated on middle-aged hopeless romantics.
And a wee off-topic, but her cameo in this kind of just seems like she accidentally got in the shot and then tried not to look forward. Lol.
Verdict: C+
