About Me

An excellent look at the Norwegian high school experience. Funny, thought provoking, and endlessly entertaining, SKAM is a classic in the Nordic countries for a reason. Director Julie Andem did a great job consulting high schoolers, and reacting in real time to fan comments, to create an incredibly realistic depiction of what it's like to be a teenager.
Lisa Langseth's Love and Anarchy is funny and romantic, while managing to critique contemporary Swedish culture, and the state of the publishing industry.
The Girls is an under appreciated masterpiece, featuring beautiful cinematography, and discussing issues as relevant now as then.
A beautiful look at war and memory with excellent cinematography.
An amazing look at the history of Helsinki, that will resonate with anyone who knows the city well. The footage of winter throughout time is particularly engaging, as is the depiction of city changes.
While the imagery is absolutely beautiful, the film struggles with pacing, and the story is somewhat tedious, although the book suffers from the same problem. Nonetheless, the film is certainly worth viewing for the imagery alone.
A fun film, with rather dark Norwegian humor. Beautiful costuming, and a vey original idea.
A powerful look at generational trauma and the history of residential schools and cultural erasure in Finland.
A tragic but beautiful film, Daniel Brühl and August Diehl give wonderful performances. Some costumes are period inaccurate, but the film is otherwise a fascinating look at the Weimar era.
An excellent film, perhaps one of Dassin's best. Richard Widmark manages to portray grifter Harry Fabian in a way that highlights his simultaneously sympathetic and negative qualities.
Gorgeous cinematography and music, with an equally moving story. One of my all time favorite films.
Much better than I expected, a very fun film with a surprisingly star-studded cast. Beautiful costumes and locations, and extremely campy acting.
A beautiful adaptation of Forster's work. Grant and Willby's acting is wonderfully touching. One of Merchant-Ivory's better films.
A stunning accomplishment, that has impacted a wide range of cinema. Amazingly distinct characters for such a large cast.
