moodysson really the goat, mf included yung lean and lil peep in the ost
One of Lukas Moodysson’s greatest achievements, and one of the greatest TV-Shows I’ve ever seen. Watched it all in one day, and I’ve already started a rewatch of it. Beautiful, real and honest in the way that only Moodysson could achieve. It’s also extremely funny, and got me laughing consistently. Currently reading Lukas’ novel ‘Döden och Co.’ too, and it’s really good. Very dark and sad stuff, but totally worthwhile.
لوکاس مودیسون بعد از نزدیک ۶ سال به کارگردانی برگشت اما این بار سریال و نه فیلم. گوستا سریالی کمدی/درام است که متمرکز است روی زندگی شخصیت اصلی فیلم به همین نام و اطرافیانش و اتفاقاتی که در خانهی او در جریان است.
یکی از ویژگیهای بارز سریال از اپیزود اول برای من این بود که چگونه کارگردان شخصیتها را در ابتدا تبدیل به تیپ میکند و به مرور رفتارهایی را از آنها نشان میدهد که هیچ مخاطبی انتظار آن را ندارد. در مقیاس خیلی بزرگتر میتوان خود گوستا و توماس (پدر گوستا) را مثال زد. هر دو شخصیتهایی هستند که مشابهشان را در فیلمهای دیگر زیاد دیدهایم. قطب مثبت و منفی یک شخصیت. کسی که بیشتر از خود به…
Hilarious. Post-Midsommar Jesus-like Vilhelm Blomgren's Gösta is the perfect anti-hero. He can only do good but constantly ends up being exploited by everyone ... but will he ever get fed up?
Extremely likable, annoying, embarrasing and funny at the same time.
"By the way.. That thing you said about me pretending to be better than everybody else? I'm not pretending. I am better than everybody else. And I don't need to make myself worse. You need to make yourself better."
This is gonna be my longest review ever but I beg you, PLEASE read this, the parts where I don't spoil anything. This is actually really important to me. And very important in itself. So, it's crucial for you to read everything (except the spoilers) of this. I need this show to get more attention.
I saved this up as my last Lukas Moodysson project watch. This is a show that has 12 episodes. Each of them being around 25-30 minutes…
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
Gösta is a child psychologist in a small Swedish town. He's a real sweetheart and just wants to help everybody, perhaps in a way that's overly simplistic and naïve. People are constantly taking advantage of his good nature and this is the story of how he learns to strike a better balance of conditional love in order to survive.
Everything begins so peacefully in his little clapboard shack with his loving girlfriend Melissa. She worries that perhaps she is too loving and that she can't handle the intensity and might need to pull back. Before too long Gösta's erratic, narcissistic father throws himself into the mix. He's a real piece of work, imposing, controlling and self-absorbed. The kind of man…
Well, it's sad how we can't bear people and yet we can't live without them.
خیلی دوستش داشتم. از لحظهی اول یه سریال بسیار خوشریتم و بامزه و چشمتیز بود. در اینجا منظورم از چشمتیز یه کیفیت شخصیه. منظورم اینه که چشم کارگردان تیزه، به جزئیات زندگی و توی این فیلم قابها و نماهایی میبینیم از جزئیاتی که من هم همیشه دوست داشتم اگر سینماگر میشدم توی کارهام استفاده میکردم. نوع تدوینش هم دقیقا مورد سلقیهی من بود. مثلا تیتراژ شروع که محکم کوبیده میشد و محکم تموم میشد. جزئیبینی هم برای من از جنس لحظاتیه که توی زندگی وجود دارن و خیلی بیمعنیان ولی هستن. مثلا اونایی که در شروع اپیزود خودِ گوستا داره به یک قرص جوشان در حال حل شدن نگاه میکنه. این توجه به چیزهای کوچک اون چیزیه که باعث میشه…
Lets go Gösta finns på letterbox! Alla som har hbo vad väntar ni på?
Att Lukas Moodysson gjort den här serien känns som ett enormt treat! Klart en av de bästa serierna jag sett någonsin. Så fin, rolig, sorlig och karaktärer som är bra uppbyggda och man bryr sig om dom så mycket. Timingen och dialogen är unmatched varje avsnitt är enjojable!
Slutet✋😓
Moodysson’s masterwork. The culmination of all his themes and concerns.
The dad.
The guy that plays the dad.
One of the all-time god-tier great characters and portrayals. Mattias Silvell has earned foreverlegend status for what he did here.
Everyone else shines as well in this unflinching depiction of 2010s hangups—self-absorption, codependency, anxiety and pathological altruism in the evening land of the west. A snapshot of things JUST before novelcoronavirus came and made things even better.
Tried in vain to get the masses to take the Gösta pill when it was easy to find and stream. As of 2024 it appears to be unavailable everywhere outside of Sweden or Torrentania. Despite its scarcity, this gem of a miniseries deserves more viewership…
What a heavily slept on miniseries. If you’re a fan of Moodysson’s early work, I don’t know why you wouldn’t dig this.
People need to see this.
