( Whose friends? )
This was one of those wonderfully made European movies that cannot be replicated in the details by any of the “-woods”. Life is full of coincidences that adds the unexpected element in our ordinary lives. This Danish movie has an ordinary plot of estranged lovers, where their paths diverged only to meet in unusual circumstances to reveal some expected news. But it stands out for the plot is so powerfully expressed by performances that move you. The details in the making of the movie, so as not to overwhelm you excessively and setting the pace perfectly is to be commended and for keeping the emotions close to real life.
My one line review: A wonderful gripping drama for the emotional soul. (Via Rungta)
