In the Fade (2017)

This is a three-part story. Part I is a tragedy. Part II is a legal drama. And Part III is a tense thriller. Diane Kruger is excellent, portraying three distinct stages of grief. It was interesting watching this movie after The Insult, watching another civil law legal proceeding. The questions come without order from all sides. There is bizarre hand-raising in the courtroom. The legal drama is not particularly as interesting to me because it seems almost fake, though I can't really say how a real German courtroom works. That ending though is powerful.
