The Headless Woman - 2008 - 5/10
AKA - La Mujer Sin Cabeza

In spite of a title like that, I knew what I was heading into with this Argentinian drama.
While driving home, a woman’s cellphone rings. So, of course …
She strikes something. She sees a shape back on the road, but is too shaken to investigate. Instead, returns home, dazed.
Her world is filled with dozens of relatives. Husband, brother, male cousins, females, children.
A “close” and confusing family. Close, as in a quickie with a male cousin, a female niece with lesbian tendencies.
Minor characters such as doctors, gardeners, patients, random neighbors wander into the scene, disappear.
Confused? Yeah, so was our heroine. a meandering Virginia Woolf caricature.
Rich enough to suffer a guilt complex without facing any consequences.
Many viewed this as a thriller, symbolizing society’s refusal to accept responsibility. Others felt it a snooze.
Arthouse crowd was, not surprisingly, divided about this.
