On Good Friday night I saw The White Ribbon.

Anthony Lane's review seems fair. However in the couple of reviews I read, no one seems to mention one possible source of the movie: August Sander. Flipping through the beautiful Sander book I picked up a few years ago, I meet again many of the characters from the movie. The ambiguous calm in each masterful portrait seems to suggest the complicated, soiled lives that lie beneath.
