Sardonicast 20: Chris Stuckmann, The Piano Teacher

[@officialkidwizard]

The immeasurable amount of homosexuality radiating from Ralph's body distorted the physical sound waves entering his microphone, thus resulting in what we're now witnessing. I fear that his gayness may soon distort the very reality we currently inhabit. Someday...

Ralph is such a hipster that he recorded his audio on a 1890 microphone

Ralph I think something was wrong with your audio for the first 30 minutes of the podcast or so. It was pretty subtle, so I'm sure no one noticed.

An even greater example of the use of extras in a Haneke film is Code Unknown. If you watch the behind the scenes footage on the Criterion edition of the film, the extreme emphasis he puts on the people in the background is another example of how precise he is as not only a filmmaker but an artist.

[@lus_9743]

It's so nice to to see Ralph recording from a cold shack in Siberia.

[@NiteOfTheWorld]

Slavoj Zizek on The Piano Teacher (from The Pervert's Guide to Cinema): "When fantasy disintegrates, you don’t get reality, you get some nightmarish Real too traumatic to be experienced as ordinary reality. That would be another definition of nightmare. Hell is here. Paradise, at least this perverse paradise, is hell. Stop, please."

[@austindyer9795]

Piano Teacher was so good. I'm gonna check out all of Haneke's stuff, now!

[@VexiumTrifulcta]

I always interpreting the ending of The Piano Teacher as her taking control again. She's in control for essentially the whole movie, but then the rape scene marks the point in the film where she finally truly, is not in control anymore. He assumed he had her in his control so he acted like nothing happen and assumed she would do the same. Her stabbing herself and leaving is her rebelling against his control.
