"As one character puts it, “filmmakers are service providers,” and despite the unromantic tone of such a designation, this seems to be very near to Kieslowski’s own view."

"Ramps down Tolstoy's soap-opera grandiosity, while still managing to elevate the banalities of a high-society dalliance to the level of a cosmic psychodrama"
