THE EDGE OF HEAVEN, Fatih Akin

"THE EDGE OF HEAVEN, Fatih Akin, Germany/Turkey, 8 Think of Kieslowski's RED, rather than capping the Three Colors trilogy as the most magnificent by tying together the very notion of tying together, as a pale reunion of some of the characters of BLUE and WHITE, with more unseen-to-them connections and Juliette Binoche now acting as if her husband had never died. That should give you a sense of how frustrating I found this film's third section, also called 'The Edge of Heaven.'"
