The most underappreciated film of the Krzysztof Kieslowski's famous trilogy, White is the most direct, simplest, bitterest but also precise and very satisfying. This is one smart movie, and if you are interested in the subject of justice, equality, then it is a must see. The movie has aged well and is perhaps the best one to start with if you want to watch his movies.

The second installation in Krzysztof Kieślowski's Three Colors trilogy is considered an anti-comedy. Continuing the theme of France's national motto (liberty, equality, fraternity), "Trois couleurs: Blanc" ("Three Colors: White" in English) looks at equality, as a divorced man returns to his native Poland and eventually decides to get even with his ex-wife.As in the first installment, Kieślowski uses the title color to tell the story. This color that is a combination of all the other colors appears in almost every scene. "White" continues the first movie's theme of trying to break away from the past, while there remains an object serving as a link to the past. "Blue" had the blue beads, while this one has the two-franc coin. In the end, one might interpret the man's ethically questionable business practices as a warning about going overboard in reforming Poland's economy after the Soviet-backed regime collapsed.I actually didn't find "White" to be quite as good as "Blue" (I have yet to see "Red"). The previous one focused on the woman's attempts to make a new life for herself, while this one makes the man look like the victim. Not that these turn it into a bad movie. The worst Krzysztof Kieślowski movie is better than the best Michael Bay movie. I recommend the movie. I'm now eager to see "Red".

White is the purest color and seems like nothing harmful in there, peaceful. That's my first impression of this movie and I changed my thoughts.The movie can be summarized as a word:'revenge'. It was totally different with white color. The whole movie is full of plain color like black white grey, and they mean the life of Karol. However there are sharp colors such as orange and red when Dominique appears. She has strong desire of sex and love.So it is obvious that there is a contrast between Them and may be they are in different world.The most unforgettable part is the ending. Because Karol visited Dominique in the prison but they are in different emotions. Karol was crying and looking at her but Dominique smiled and did sign language. She said the Karol must wait her back and have sex with her(or marry again?). To me, They are in different stage of love. Karol did the revenge and still in love with Dominique. On the other side, Dominique was satisfied with the power she got in the relationship so she just want to enjoy that again but may be not related to her love to Karol.Overall, the color was the main feature of the movie and brought out the relationship between this couple. Krzysztof Kieślowski told us White should be pure and equal but not in love.

at first sigh, a revenge story. in fact, only a window to Kieslowski definition of life. a portrait of cultural borders. and drawing of the need to be part of the other.a Polish story and splendid role for Julie Delpy. a film about love, fear, vulnerability and search of sense. and subtle, nuanced performance of Zbigniew Zamachowski. a letter from East. honest. so, cruel. with a beautiful end who defines entire cold poetry of movie. sure, it is a profound subjective review because, I admit, Kieslowski remains for me more than a brilliant director but a great witness , who not only present but defines the details of a period, the roots of a world who remains gray in light.
