BFI: Cache

Catherine Wheatly has written a good analysis, Cache (2012) of Michael Haneke's 2005 film Cache for the British Film Institute. In introduction, "Beginnings and Endings," Wheatley talks about the distinctive ending and start of the film. From there she discusses some of the ways the film has been addressed: 1) the film as thriller "Whodunnit?" 2) bourgeois guilt "Home and the Family" 3) political accountability "Politics and Memory" 4) reality, the media and its audiences "Screens and Spectators."  The Conclusion suggests that this film invites a number of readings and refuses to settle on a definitive reading of the film. It has inspired me to get a copy of the film and give it several more viewings.
