Lilja 4-ever (2002)
Fantastic movie...
What a fantastic movie... As someone else stated, you forget it is "only" a movie, it really plays like a documentary... You believe it all... The casting people most be complimented of their choice of the girl playing Lilja, and the boy playing her friend...
The use of Rammsteins "Mein Hertz Brennt" (My Heart Burns) is just perfect... Not only are the title so fitting, the music also fits the mood it describes... When I hear the song today my thoughts immediately go to Lilja - you can say my heart burns for Lilja...
Lilja 4-ever - that´s putting it mildly... This is one you´ll always remember...
French Open (1992)
Sleazy reporter on the tennis courts...
Ron Jeremy plays a sleazy reporter trying to prove that all female tennisplayers are lesbians... Does he succeed??? Well, you´ll have to see the movie to find out...
Mr. Jeremy has often been praised as "the clown prince of porn", and here he´s trying to live up to that title - it´s not one of his funniest efforts, but it´s OK...
And what can I say about Zara Whites??? Nothing, except she´s HOT!!!
Pigen fra Egborg (1969)
John Søgaard and John Søgaard change places, and confusion is in the air...
When John Søgaard (a lazy student who gets all expenses covered by his uncle as long as he studies botanics), meets John Søgaard (a chef on a whalehunter ship which is currently in dock) they immediately become best friends. The student hires the chef, but then the uncle dies, leaving the student a big farm. As he goes to check it out he falls in love with the caretakers daughter. Confusion galore is coming up, as the two Johns do the Prince and the Pauper thing - they switch places. Maybe not the most original of stories, but the acting by Dirch Passer and Willy Rathnov makes this one more than worth your while. Especially one sequence with Ove Sprogøe and Morten Grundwald (two thirds of the Olsen Gang) is hysterically funny. (7/10)
Festen (1998)
It´s not something we like to talk about - especially not at celebrations...
This is probably one of the most disturbing films I´ve ever seen, but at the same time one of the best... Following the rules of Dogma 95 the movie is set in a big old house, the premise being a celebration of the fathers 60th birthday... He had four children, but one died at the house not too long ago...
The leaves three children, and the oldest brother has a special gift for his father - an old bill that has to be paid, so that the dead daughter can rest in peace, and the son can get on with his life...
Juletestamentet (1995)
3 brothers meet in a cabin to hear the testament of their recently dead father...
The title means "The Christmas Testament" and the series was in 24 parts, broadcast on consecutive dates from December 1 to December 24th 1995. 3 brothers, Sven, Hubert and Martin, who can´t stand each other, and their wives meet in an old cabin to hear their recently died fathers testament. His last will is for them to celebrate Christmas together. In the cabin is, apart from the 6 family members, only a weird waiter. But something is not quite right...
