Ne le Dis a Personne

It was pretty clear that Tell No One was an amazing movie. For the most part, what makes it great is the fact that it always keeps you guessing while at the same time confused yet eager to know what happened. It was long and had so many plot twists. I didn't really know when or how it would end, until the finally story came out and the ending was clear. Characters were often wondered to be good or bad, even the main character Margot's husband Alex at first was questioned for killing the wife. Although we got the story from Alex's perspective we really didn't get the story from his thoughts. We did not see when or if he had figured things out we only watched. Especially when watching the father revealing the truth, not only until after a fake story was established did we find out the truth. The music also added to the dramatic effect. Each song was perfect for the scene.


Being that I take French as a class I found myself wanting to simply listen and try to understand what they were saying but I really couldn't in addition to try to keep up with the plot. Also what confused me was that the characters weren't really introduced as a specific person; we had to figure them out on our own which was sometimes difficult when I didn't read the captions correctly and often they were difficult to make out because they were white on a light scene. However, this simply added more mystery to it...
