Michael Haneke’s “The White Ribbon”: CAN’T WAIT. It killed at Cannes, the liberal Godless communist film festival where all things dreary and horrifying are celebrated. So you know you will love it when you are tired of your Terminators! (Warning: the only embeddable videos have stupid, pre-roll ads, so to see a little bit you actually have to suffer to watch the suffering.) From what little we can tell, it’s basically like The Seventh Seal meets A Midsummer Night’s Sex Comedy. Minus any comedy or sex.
