The love of Georges and Anne is tested when, at the age of 80, Anne has a stroke, after which she remains completely physically dependent on her husband.
'Amour' is a realistic, and very emotionally rough drama, which demonstrates the unforgiving flip side even in the case of a suitable, cultured couple who love each other deeply and sincerely. The two protagonists are wonderful in their role, another big role added to a career that can only be described as impressive, almost right before leaving this world (Emmanuelle Riva died 5 years later and Jean-Louis Trintignant in 2022).
