this was solid drama
radicalmedia2 April 2005
this was solid poetic drama. lovely rhythm but why do short films always have to concentrate on moments of high drama? especially Scandinavian drama... But Kaurismaki is my one exception. He is great!

It is my guess...that they think they provoke something by charging it in your face. I'm not so sure. I think subtle manipulation and suggestion of intellectual and emotional themes is far more powerful.

Fabulous acting. But my one thing here is: I didn't really feel a unique or original voice. It felt far too academic. Like a Bergmann study or a muse on a dictionary definition.

Hitting with the pillow...the deaf man...HM....its OK but again...sensational.
