The question "Le temps qui reste" quietly asks is:should we cling to these things?And what would happen if we didn't?
From Tolstoy's Ivan Ilych to Kafka's Gregor Samsa, literature abounds in dying protagonists forced to reconcile themselves to their aloneness. But in "Le temps qui reste", Fr. Ozon introduces the waitress and her sterile husband therely giving Romain an opportunity (if he wants it) to leave something behind...
"Le temps qui reste" is a lyrical and moving testament to, quoting Milan Kundera, the unbearable lightness of being. Really, it is (also) one of Ozone's most beautiful works.
