520 | |a This proposed theology of death for Michael Haneke's Amour, a fraught but poignant piece of cinema, will employ Martin Heidegger's existentialism to reframe the ethical structure of the film and apply a lived theology rejoinder to its perceived hopelessness. The proposal will address the question of ethics in relation to Haneke's cinema, in particular his seemingly nihilistic perspective and confrontational style. To do so, it will revisit the film itself and examine the ways that Georges and Anne's love is tested. Principally, we examine the film's great question, whichin the filmmaker's own wordsis: How do I cope with the suffering of a loved one? With aid from the theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer, this lived theology' proposal will attempt to give an account of love's irrepressible strength in the midst of even astounding suffering. While Heidegger's ethic of resoluteness calls for interiority and solitude, Bonhoeffer's account of death more satisfactorily invokes a transcendent summons contained within our own pledges to loved ones. Such a theological reading of Haneke's Amour will draw two distinct conclusions: first, the film exposes the superficiality of any hoped-for solitude or escape from a loved one's death, and secondly, it demonstrates that the mutuality of authentic love entails impossible sacrifices. | ||
