The Double Life of Veronique / La Double vie de Véronique / France / Poland / Norway / 1991
Each of Krzysztof Kieslowski’s films may be seen as componential to a larger whole. Superficially, this film — concerning Weronika, a Pole, and Véronique, French — contains his transition from the frost-bitten cobblestone roads of Dekalog to the more affluent urban locations in Trois couleurs. And perhaps due to this transition, the film is more abstruse than its bookends, and I was immersed in it for precisely this reason. There is no moral or ethic dilemma, and the emphasis isn’t the physical parameters of coincidence but rather the emotional parameters—how Véronique and Weronika sense each other even though they have never met. A beautiful film that is more absorbed than it is watched.
