Wauw...this is sexy stuff!

I viewed the danish film "Between Us" at the Student Oscar Screening the other day, along with the other screenings of this years American Student Academy Award winning film. It was definitely the best of them all!!! (...I also loved the animation "S.P.I.C.").

This is really a perfect film; Sexy, funny, intelligent and very surprising! And the actors are SO good!...I think it's very well deserved it won the Foreign Student Academy Award!...i hope it will be screened again some time. Thanks from LA!

Brilliant Film!
citroen28 December 2003
I saw this Danish short film at The European Film School Festival in Bologna this November, where it won the Main Prize as "Best European Graduation Film 2003". There where almost 30 gradutaion films from all over Europe in the competition and the level was very high. But "Mellem Os" (Tra di Noi) was the most funny and suspenceful film of them all and I think it was well deserved that it won the festival. See it if you can! It's so funny! Alesandro Botta

Great little short film
chbs6 October 2003
Warning: Spoilers
Spoilers a head...

A short film about two couples where the men are brothers having a diner where the younger brother accuse his girlfriend and older brother having an affair. And also a solution which doesn't have the effect he wanted.

The film is the final project of a director student from the Danish Movie Academy.

Give it the half an hour it deserves if you come a cross this Danish pearl.

Adam finds that his girlfriend is sleeping with his brother and sets out to save his relationship with a rather unusual plan!
el-2822 December 2004
I saw the Danish film "Mellem Os" (Between Us) at Uppsala Short Film Festival and I think it deals with the subject of infidelity in a very different and unexpected way. Maybe it's too big a theme for such a short film (35 min), but I think because it tells the story with a lot of humor it actually works very well. Also up and coming Danish actress Helle Fagralid does an excellent job in this film - she is truly talented! I may have preferred another actor in the role of Adam but otherwise I think the production is very supportive of the story. Heard it was shortlisted for a real Oscar and then some rule prohibited it from participating due to it having been shown on TV??? Too bad! It stood a good chance!

A sassy film full of style and seductiveness
lap-33 January 2005
Of course, as a screenwriter who has himself co-written Laurits' next film, the feature 'Ambulancen', I'm probably completely biased on my take of his work, but one thing's for sure: Laurits enjoys a tight set-up, uses the constraints for the story's own good, and has a wonderfully cinematic eye, even when portraying everyday situations such as a dinner party in an apartment. Thanks to the plot's surprises, the bubbling charm, and the excellent scene design in 'Between Us' ('Mellem Os'), Laurits and his collaborators have created a tight, sassy film full of style and seductiveness.

It comes highly recommended!

Have to say...
filmfreak-528 May 2004
Just watched this on DR2 and I know it won several prizes on international film festivals - but this I have to say..

The storyline is cute, the idea is nice, but why do they have to overact so severely. All leading characters apart from Helle Fagralid - whom I by the way have never seen THIS seductive, I think I'm in love, honestly! - are totally impossible to believe it because of the theather-like way of speaking. This is film, not theater. The overacting is unfortunately totally killing off this otherwise nice little flick..

Because of the over acting: 4/10 - otherwise it would probably have been a 6 or 7
