Plot
A widower keeps a shrine to his dead wife.
Sinekatalog’s take
François Truffaut stars as a widower devoted to a shrine for his dead wife and unable to let go. Austere, sombre and intense, adapted from Henry James, it is an unusually bleak, personal meditation on grief and memory.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
