Audience Member Both lead actors do amazing job. The story unfolds as life. I am not sure where this movie leads the people who see it but I am not sure if there is a place where they should have been led. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member What an awful and misleading description of the film - also the English translation should have been the Dance instead of Dancers - as surely it is more about the dance of the two main characters - or how life is about negotiating different and difficult steps. It is a good film - not spectacular but it has several things going for it. Its most noteworthy achievement being that both actors shed their (quite famous) personalities and become their characters very convincingly. Furthermore, as is common in Danish cinema, it is more about what is not being said than the actual dialogue - and Pernille Fischer Christensen is a magician when it comes to creating moods. The symbolism is too heavy and obvious at times but then again... it works. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Endiaferon alla mexri ekei. Vlepetai aneta Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Certainly has something,tht keeps you engaged troughout...you don choose who to love...or do you...? Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Oh, another Scandinavian film with a dark, rugged, dangerous and oddly attractive blonde man and the woman who cannot stay away, despite her better judgement. The film has those tense moments where you want someone to say something and lots of blue lighting... And, as always seems to be, I cannot help but love it. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Elegant dance teacher begins romance with grungy electrician. Their relationship grows closer until she discovers he has a secret. Solemn drama has some moments, but it's rather slow, even at only 90 min. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Read all reviews
