    What a fascinating cast of characters! Each one of them given more than enough rope to suffocate with. The way people deceive themselves is uncanny. Contradicting testimonies. Obvious lies. Half-truths. Don't be daunted by the runtime-- it is never boring. This is a truly amazing film: truly important-- truly interesting-- truly irritating...? 2 years 1 month ago

    Nice proto-like Michael Moore doc with Ophuls trolling citizens.

    More irritating comments in French on La Saveur des goûts amers.

    I really don't understand the downvotes, do the people think it is not important or not interesting or not irritating? I don't get it. 6 years 5 months ago
