    I love how this movie constantly and continually subverts your expectations. It turns the brave heroes into lost, confused or manic. And it builds your sympathy for the villain. Largely without dialogue, just visuals.

    Incredible acting is no surprise for liv ulman . Bergmans theater background shines through as usual with the well crafted long scenes. The close up angles bring you into the world and into their relationship, easily relatable if you have been through long relationships. It was great to learn how popular this was in Sweden, I wish that American adults could have an educational moment through television like that. I also like that there are no positive “happy” relationships that…

    Very silly but is totally carried by a solid story with real characters and a cynical samurai to explore them all. It gives every character some lines but doesn't waste any time, which is incredible to witness because its just so many characters. By the end even though there's dozens of characters it isn't confusing because the movie gave you enough info and acting from each of them.

    It's been a long time since I've watched it, but everything about this movie just stays with you. The score/soundscape is perfect and throws you right into the movie's world. The acting doesn't miss a beat. The whole thing is perfectly edited, you would expect something like this to be a bit boring or to drag but it turns out to be highly watchable and leaving you wanting more.
