Human Nature (2001)
A masterpiece!
This film is a soufflé. It has no moral, meaning or will to write you anything om your nose. Nor is it funny in the traditional "joke" way. Still, it is very intelligent and let all viewers contemplate, be amused, inspired and be surprised.
The music in this film is superb. A masterpiece of a composition, of compositions! I loved every piece of music in it! both the ones meant to be noticed and the ones meant not to be... And the small musical-scene in the forest made one of the happiest moments of my movie going life. A complete surprise and just enough to lift the movie goer to a high enough "frolic level" to enjoy the rest film to the max.
I even thought Patricia Arquette was very sexy with hair all over! Maybe woman should shave less? Babys are hairless, and very unsexy.
Den osynlige (2002)
Best special effects ever made!
This film was a complete surprise for me. I expected something nothing like it, rather a normal Swedish film, grey, theatrical dialogue and bad camera, but was I wrong!
This film is something very new in Swedish film. It captures the very best of earlier Swedish films but adds something completely new. Not seen in films from anywhere to tell the truth. A kind of magic that sometimes is a component in real life, but seldomly is captured in films. Of coarse this film also contains a lot that is not to be found in ordinary life, at least not as clear as here...
It touches something seldom seen in films, the very essence of reality and consciousness. What are we? What is reality? Are we really? And why now? For how long? And for what reasons?
Some things is elegantly left out of the pictures, like questions of good and bad, love and hate. The are pictured though, but in a way that needs no further explanation. The film doesn't give any answers, only give rise to many questions...
Thomas Hedengran and Tuva Novotny are doing great things in this picture. Academy award quality stuff. Gustaf Skarsgård is okay to, perfectly adequate actually, but the role does not, and should not, give space for larger performances.
Highly recommended.
First half better than last though...
