Well, this will be a hard act to follow. Magnus Von Horn is certainly a director to keep both eyes on, and for a little over 2 hours, that’s exactly what our house did. Dark and Danish (new cocktail?). Vic Carmen Sonne’s performance was remarkable, as was the cinematography. Gorgeous. And that rug-pull moment… yikes.

I mistakenly stated that MVH had only made two features (this and Sweat), but he has, in fact, made three. His first, The Here After also won high praise. Each of his movies is in a different language, as well.

Great to welcome new people to NewScreen tonight, along with one from waaaay back! Fun.
