Any swedes here?

Det skulle vara kul att se hur många svenskar det finns här på sidan!

No but I like Swedish Director Lukas Moodysson! :)

Good enough! What movie is your favourite?

dragonboy · Oct 25, 2005, 05:58 PM

I've only seen Together & Show Me Love (Tillsammans & Fucking Amal)
I like them both but I guess if I had to choose I would say I like Together more.
Have you seen Lilja 4-ever? I'm waiting for that one to come out on DVD.

I like ABBA too but who doesn't? ;)

Enrump · Oct 25, 2005, 07:52 PM

haha true true!

Yeah, I've seen Lilja 4-ever (I'm a swede godammit!) and it's good - it's very dark though...
I haven't seen his latest movie - ett hål i mitt hjärta. It's supposed to be great...

dragonboy · Oct 25, 2005, 08:20 PM

I've heard his new movie is pretty shocking...

I like Lasse Hallstrom too, What's Eating Gilbert Grape is one of my favourite movies.

He's worked with ABBA, right?

Enrump · Oct 25, 2005, 08:34 PM

Yeah it's said to be very controversal (pardon my spelling)...
I don't know the Hallström/ABBA thing though - I think that might have been a little before my time.... But probably true though.

I thought you were a Swede godammit! I'm SO kidding ;)

Yeah - but I'm a bit retarded so I couldn't learn all the things that Swedish celebreties has ever done in history. It's a handicap.

But there you go - Lasse directed their movie. Thanks to you I'm herefor a bit smarter. Anything else you could teach me about swedes? ;)

dragonboy · Oct 25, 2005, 09:51 PM

Here you go...

Tillsammans & Fucking Amal are pretty good but was kinda disappointed by Lilja 4-ever. not bad bad but I think it tries a little too hard.

you guys into Ingmar Bergman?
now there's a swede...

Enrump · Oct 26, 2005, 02:54 AM

Thanks dragonboy!

And CC Baxter, as for Ingmar Bergman, the king of anxiety, I'm not really in to that. But I do enjoy watching his movies - there's something in the way that people talk in his movies that reminds me of radioplays (or do you say radiotheatre?) And it amuses me. They're so dramatic... Do you get what I mean?

yeah I know exactly what you mean. some of his stuff is too out there for me too (e.g. persona) but others are just brilliant (e.g. hour of the wolf). he's an acquired taste for sure.

Enrump · Oct 26, 2005, 05:51 AM

Yeah he knows his shit.

I'm not a fan of Swedish style hockey, but I sure love bands like the greatest real rock band in the world, The Soundtrack Of Our Lives, and the combusible socialist punk band The International Noise Conspiracy.

Haha! I was born and raised in the same city as Soundtrack of our lives and I now live in the same town as International Noise conspiracy. In other words I live and breath your music everyday...
