Was my pick, easily one of the best of the decade. Might be too lowkey if you are gruntled by hollywood machine, but it's worth watching - if you like movies, not just the big flashy ones

i don't like trailers before seeing things but if you do:


"One day in the life of Anders, a young recovering drug addict, who takes a brief leave from his treatment center to interview for a job and catch up with old friends in Oslo."

Trailer looks kinda boring to me

Moral of the movie is probably that drugs are bad

:rofl:

Didn't watch the trailer, but I've heard of it, and this was the vibe I got as well.

I'll give it a watch, but me or anyone disliking this has nothing to do with it not being "flashy". Just because something is obscure, doesn't mean it's good.

Comments like "Might be too lowkey if you are gruntled by hollywood machine" make it difficult to even watch this though... a good movie is a good movie regardless of where it comes from. Hollywood produces plenty of entertaining films, and they also produce loads of shit, just like everywhere else.

I have never heard of the movie before, but I mean even if it has a basic message like "drugs are bad" that doesn't mean it can't be a good character drama if the actors and writing are good. I will wait to watch it here judging.

But I mean that is the point of this, find movies you wouldn't otherwise and give it a shot. You might like it you might not.

I'm aware, and I'm totally fine with that, but him being this condescending and claiming people might not like it simply because it's not "flashy", or implying that liking anything out of Hollywood makes you incapable of enjoying a good movie, is just a painfully stupid thing to say and it makes it hard to take him or his movie seriously. Like I said, I'll watch it, and I am grateful to have a movie posted I haven't seen, but that just rubbed me the wrong way.

I mean there is no reason to really care about what he said. He wasn't involved in the project. You can find people who act like that about any movie.
