    From a literary perspective, Elihu’s speeches brought some sense of closure to the human arguments, even though his thought trajectory suffered from the same kinds of lapses as the others. What is significant, however, is the perfect segue that his final oration provided to the appearance of God. Because it had proven futile to cajole Job, Elihu returned to the sovereign power and transcendence of God. From God’s initial acts of drawing together drops of water, forming clouds and providing…

    Transcendence may be defined as “the existence or experience beyond the normal or physical level” and may refer to the spiritual, the fantastical, the magical or the otherwise immaterial. The theme of transcendence - particularly spiritual transcendence - has been explored through the centuries in religious art, such as that of Giotto di Bondone (1266 – 1337) and Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni (1475 – 1564).

    The film is beautifully shot, in farfetched tones-running from brilliant to sepia to dark, in the feeling of the trench fighting. The essential plot is that Tautou 's character, Mathilde, is looking for reality about her significant other Manech (Gaspard Ulliel), who is supposedly dead, sentenced to death with four others for weakness by the French military, for self-mangling, in a situation much the same as that in Stanley Kubrick 's first incredible film, Ways Of Transcendence.
