If you are a fan of Scandinavian film or at least of Mads Mikkelsen, you should give this film a watch. Danish films always feel so real. this is not a Dogme film, but it definitely has many aspects of one. it's lovely and and you are slowly drawn into the lives of it's characters. It was nominated for best foreign film at the Academy Awards a couple of years back, but didn't win. Sadly, it looks as though it may be adapted into an American version, along the lines of BROTHERS and OPEN HEARTS have/will be. Make sure you enjoy this version before that happens
Jeg elsker Dig Mads Mikkelsen!!!!
This WAS a great film. As I am American vanilla with a British swirl, I really enjoy seeing a wider world view of things. I look forward to all his films and have seen Pusher Trilogy, Flame and Citroen, and am waiting for my copy of Adam's Apples, which NEVER came to Cine.
