"Amour" — Michael Haneke takes a subject you don't often see in movies and probably don't even want to see — the slow, steady deterioration of an elderly woman — and handles it with great grace.

A friend of mine adopted a street cat a few months ago. In a matter of weeks, the feline population in their house rose to four — the original adopted cat had kittens. Last week their household had its first cat-related trauma: one of the kittens disappeared. Three days later she came home dragging a swollen paw. She was clearly ill, and was mewling piteously (I’m not discounting the possibility of emotional blackmail). They took her to the vet, who said she had some sort of infection. The vet said she might have eaten a mouse that had ingested rat poison.
