Happy End | Official Trailer HD (2017)

[@racializedkanadian]

Cinema is most certainly, not dead yet. Another GIFT from Michael Haneke !

[@DCI-Frank-Burnside]

Quite light hearted for a Haneke number. Though having said that it does contain the most harrowingly bleak, apocalyptic portrayal of karaoke ever committed to celluloid.

[@emiliobello2429]

What do you mean?

[@diegocruz1876]

clearly you haven't seen Mommy

[@chasecummings2353]

not light hearted at all. there are three (four?) suicide attempts, a murdered guinea pig, pissing kinks, a graphically broken finger. i guess if you compare this to funny games or cache its tame

[@HalSamuel]

Sorely underrated at the time I think. Critics described it as retreading old ground, which is a shallow accusation. Haneke has never brought such (black) humour to his movies before, and he manages to do so without losing an iota of integrity (it’s as breathtakingly cruel as ever). It’s a smaller and less thematically grand movie than Amour - at least on the surface - but a smaller movie is not necessarily a lesser one.

[@andrefernandez5431]

This is his more humane film to date, there’s something quite relatable about the anger these characters feel throughout the movie and the inability to realize how much it hinders their ability to relate to eachother when in fact they are all going through similar stuff. Or maybe my family is very disfunctional too idk

[@lostuser1094]

Just watched, very depressing. Great shit Haneke.

[@schambess]

It feels like a companion piece to Caché. Very exciting

[@RoxanneM-]

This was a very good film. Worth watching.

[@Cmdsouza]

The end is the best part.

Hey, that's the guy from Amelie (2001)

[@alantorres6949]

and director of la haine!

[@stalememes6458]

This movie hits all the Haneke beats. Long scenes, drama, and they even used actors from amour.

[@philippebeauchamp2827]

I think you forgot the essential : fragmented narrative storytelling

[@emiliobello2429]

Yes you are right, you know Emmanuele Riva died in 2016?

[@kaungkhantthein5348]

If you watch the film, you ll find that Trignant character is the continuation of the Amour one (he mentions in the film).

[@hessu275]

I bet that this is gonna be powerful and moving like Haneke's movies usually are

[@1jckinnick]

HeikkiP or boring they're re usually one or the other

[@Weird-City]

@@1jckinnick Love his earlier films very much but have to admit I find his later films to be less "entertaining". Perhaps that is deliberate. Perhaps I am shallow.

[@emiliobello2538]

The child actress seems to do very good

[@thevoid99]

"a return to form"? has that critic seen any of haneke's previous films? they're fucking awesome.

[@RemyMyer]

Couldn't agree more. His previous film, Amour, was arguably the peak of his form.

[@DanielCowman21]

Agreed. What does "a return to form" even mean when your last two films were back-to-back Palme d'Or winners The White Ribbon and Amour? Haha

[@clevelandphil]

If you like movies with miserable endings, Haneke is your man.

[@Sam-hd7iy]

this soundtrack is amazing

[@AlpVonTrier]

Sam do you know its name?

[@AlpVonTrier]

ah okay i found it. Les Folies d'Espagne. Hille Perl.

[@xTheOxx]

The blurb at the beginning is funny. "An exciting return to form". When exactly did Haneke lose his grip on his form?

[@stalememes6458]

I think it's referring to him not making a movie in 5 years, but it's only 5 years, so i don't know.

[@philippebeauchamp2827]

Well, they probably mean his comeback to a more clinical approach in writing and direction. To be honest, White Ribon and Amour were pretty straightforward and conventional compared to his previous films

[@izuminishi6376]

Some says you find a lot of influence from Godard in this film, which I do not in particular agree with. Yet this is something you can say "must" if you like a "happy ending" of this sort.

[@johncyriac6467]

Can someone say which is that Cello piece?

[@Lolox141]

Whats the Name of the Classical music piece that sounds with the Trailer? Thanks!

[@gabrielmladin6014]

Les Folies d'Espagne. Hille Perl.

it's "Fratres" by Arvo Part. ---> kzbin.info/www/bejne/aWfKXoGXqa6Db6c

Variations on the La Folia theme, played on a viola da gamba.

I'm alive in the world while Michael Haneke is out there making films. Suicide is no option. You should get better taste. It'll do you good, mate.

[@roseghould]

not. enough. discourse.

[@emiliobello2429]

Would Haneke dedicate this to Emmanuele Riva?

[@Arnarost]

cinema is not action, impossible rhythms and today's devilish things that nullify the brain. in happy end you do not shoot, there are no superheroes to fight each other for two hours, there is no videoclippara trash that has invaded our cinematic Multi (cinemas). There is pure auteur cinema of a brilliant director. So anyone who does not love this can stay away without throwing mud on what he did not understand.

[@CarlosRiveraFernandez]

Yo where's the freaking blu ray please and thanks

[@clevelandphil]

Is this a sequel to Amour?

[@drakejohnson2607]

Kinda...

[@emiliobello2429]

No, but it has two actors from the same movie is there.

[@emiliobello2429]

@@drakejohnson2607 how so?

[@michaelangelo2192]

@@emiliobello2429 Well there was the scene where Georges talked about how (spoiler alert) he chocked his wife out after 3 years of looking after her - after she got paralysed. This clearly is referencing Amour though it is strange that Isabelle Hupert's character is 'Eva' in Amour and 'Anne' in Happy End. I think it is sorta meant to be a sequel, but I try not to view it as one. It is rather peculiar.

[@michaelangelo2192]

@@emiliobello2429 I love how Mark Kermode put it: he described it as being a seemingly alternate universe future for Amour when you take a left turn to find the future rather than driving straight on. That's why it is kind of like a sequel, but really more like an alternate timeline - ie. Likely not what really happened.

[@morissmor]

It was really amazing, probably his best. Yes, better than _Caché_

[@AnhTuPhucDerrickHoangCanada]

great

[@liamandhyde]

Interesting film. Bad trailer.

[@stalememes6458]

This must be the worst trailer I ever saw.

[@mohabmagdi]

Bad film from a great filmmaker

[@clingclanglarry3327]

This movie was so bad. Haneke just reused themes from his older movie. So fucking disappointing! I can't believe YMS gave this a 9 / 10! Old People dying or wanting to- Amour Children with PTSD- The White Ribbon Bourgeoisie family facing trouble - 7th Continent Technology as a main role- Caché This is ridiculous!!!!!!

[@SuperSecretAgentNein]

Checking in four years later, have you grown? Do you now realize that many great artists throughout history have returned to similar thematic wells for inspiration? That this isn’t in any way a real well thought out criticism?

[@kaungkhantthein5348]

I think Wong Kar-wai once said, a filmmaker only makes one kind of film, but he makes it over and over again.

[@toddfundgren4299]

What is it with every other European movie now just being super nihilistic and making the characters look like absolute morons all while playing classical music

[@chittybangbang8370]

What's with your shitty comment? European films are nihilistic because they're honest. Because they're trying to awaken people to the monstrosity that has been cast adrift called the postmodern, 'advanced stage global economy' age or whateverthefuckyouwanttocallit. Times are dark. Have you not noticed? Or have you been watching Star Wars this whole time?

[@toddfundgren4299]

Bela Tarr Just because I fell asleep during Werckmeister Harmonies doesn't mean I'm not down with Haneke. Nothing wrong with making a depressing film to reflect a depressing state of affairs. I don't find affluent white people flailing their arms in some sort of existential protest the least bit funny or poignant, in particular because that sort of absurdism seems to be part of a growing trend in Western European cinema. People used to say that European films were more character-oriented (when they weren't about firing scarlet red paint out of some Italian ex porn star's femoral artery or literally mouthpieces for the director's Marxist sympathies) in contrast to America's story driven films, but I honestly think the biggest difference on the aggregate was/is that American films try to inspire and European films try to impose their sociopathic directors' ennui. Germans and Eastern Europeans.... They're absolved. And yeah, Piano Teacher is great. Oh and there's absolutely nothing wrong with the original Star Wars.

[@chittybangbang8370]

Oh, American films try to "inspire"? Really? Which ones are you referring to? Gone in 60 Seconds? Star Wars? The throng of bullshit superhero movies being shoved up our asses 24-7? The propaganda nationalism that directors the likes of Clint Eastwood churn out yearly? Do, please, indulge me with some examples of American films that inspire. The only ones that inspire are the ones that no one gets to see: Florida Project, Phantom Thread, shit like that. Oh, and the original Star Wars is pretty shitty. Jedi is pretty good. Almost all the ones since then have been crocks of shit. Shiny turds for kids, really. It sounds as though you want a cinema that lies. The kind of shit that Mussolini endorsed in Italy during his fascist reign. Talk all you want about Marxism and sociopathy; The Square, Killing of a Sacred Deer, Call Me By Your Name, Faces Places - all films by European directors that were MUCH better than the schlock that passes as commercial cinema in America. American cinema is DEAD. All they can do now is import insane talent like Denis Villeneuve and the Mexicans, for starters, and hope that they make interesting work so Hollywood can have reputation beyond the greed that keeps that shitty institution afloat.

[@toddfundgren4299]

Bela Tarr You're on a hair trigger, dude. I don't think you're at liberty to call something that hundreds of millions of people the world over have plastered all over their bedroom walls and written about a century's worth of reading in fan fiction 'shit.' The original trilogy got the mythology right. Lucas wrote fallible characters with reasonable depth. Marvel movies make money, but no one talks about them months after the fact. Star Wars will be imbedded in the global unconscious 'til the sun burns out. Also, edge-lord.... Movies aren't supposed to be an exact reflection of reality as it exists sans human/collective consciousness. Never been the point. If that's what you want, go set up a tripod and a GoPro in a train station and see how many people buy tickets. Just like I wouldn't I want to play a video game that consists of someone doing household chores or trying to impress a client at a fancy dinner, I would prefer my movies have a soul and actually be about things (does not translate to explosions). Florida Project is great. Lady Bird was great. Phantom Thread and Call Me By Your Name are masterpieces. They're doing okay at the box office, they're just not making Marvel money. The great films of the 60s and 70s didn't fare much better, there just wasn't a massive entertainment industrial complex churning out billion dollar movies to make them pale in revenue by comparison.

[@chittybangbang8370]

"Massive entertainment industrial complex" - clearly you're on my side. And yeah, hundreds of millions of people can be wrong, and they certainly are with this Star Wars shit. They can sell a bag of shit with the Star Wars logo on it and people will eat it up. That's a testament to how shitty (a lot of ) peoples' tastes are. But that makes sense. We live in a deeply insecure society where most people just want to fit in. Walmart is popular because there are enough poor (financially, spiritually) people out there. Star Wars ain't no different. It's garbage candy. I don't mind it being mildly successful given what it is. But it's turned into a fucking joke. And the joke is on the sheep that eat it up without any critical afterthought. It's not surprising though. It's born out of America (it could not be born out of any other country on the planet) America is a torn, contradicted place that's going to hell in a handbasket, and fast. So as much as people like to think that Disney is forever, and that Star Wars will be here until the sun burns out, it's not. Plain and simple. It will pass, like the gladiators did in Roman times.

[@VergilDarkslayer]

Bela Tarr if you are salty little boy let me explain this to you .SPOILER ALERT intro:showing a girl do stuff and writing in on a message in phone while he or she was recording and you dont have a clue wtf is going on. After that a road break apart on a constraction site watching in a camera movie begin.story: you dont know what is going on you just learn the bios of each character and thats probably it no explain you the situation nothing and the cameraman probably drunk ending: you just see the old man in wheelchair going in the sea trying to commit suicide while they trying to stop him the end.

[@chittybangbang8370]

Wow, I'm impressed by your ability to follow story through character. We're all impressed. You haven't said shit, because you clearly have no idea what the film is about and what Haneke is trying to say with this film. go back to Transformers, friendo. You'll do fine with films like that. Leave Haneke to the grown-ups.
