[FlixOlé] Marked by the stigma of an anti-fascist message that reduces its true significance, the passage of time has benefited the film by giving it a broader interpretation about the memory reconstruction process. With Proust directly mentioned and Bergman succinctly referenced, it's a film that strengthens over time, not only as a poisonous look at that bourgeoisie that they prefer to forget, but as a very accurate reflection on the passage of time and how the memories of childhood continue to build personality
