Marit R Fabulous. Tunström is among the very best. And even wrote his first book at the same kitchen table as Cohen, in Hydra. I find that the film correspond fine with the book. And understand well that it's impossible for those who can't read it in Swedish, to see why this story is so unbelievable. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/09/23 Full Review Audience Member I bought this VHS movie during the first year I lived in Sweden with the aim of practicing Swedish. I have tried to watch it a couple of times during the past years but stopped it in the beginning every time again. This time I made it to the end but it was a very difficult task. The movie was way too dramatic, much too slow and therefore pretty irritating. The story was unnecessary long and totally failed to touch my heart. But I got irritated, so it didn't fail to cause emotions. Anyway, I should never have bought this tape. Moreover I thought it was a Christmas movie but I was totally wrong about that! There are far better Swedish dramas on the market. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member I'm not sophisticated enough to enjoy this kind of movie. Sad huh?
