I really enjoyed this analysis on Anatomy of a Fall! I saw it a few weekends back and loved it. I’m curious - do you think she did it or not? This piece is reminding me of the Joan Didion quote where she says that writing is an aggressive & hostile act! Separating the writer & the written feels like a chicken & the egg sometimes.

Thanks Martha! Ooh I found it so tricky to tell.. though interestingly Triet told Huller to play her as innocent. Whether that was to bring out her sense of cold remorseless I don't know? I could imagine her doing it, definitely... what do you think? And thank you for pointing me towards that Didion quote! Very apt.
