Shoe (2010)
Shoe - A Great Ambivalent Feel-Good Story
So I just watched this film last week at the Jameson Dublin International Film Festival, during the Irish Film Board's Shorts event. There was a great atmosphere and this film was highly anticipated among the shorts.
The story follows a young man on the verge of suicide, but when a homeless man appears out of nowhere, the story takes quite a turn. It's one of those films you watch, with a voice in the back of your head going: "something's about to happen, soon, soon.." and it doesn't. But that's okay, because it doesn't need any of that. There is a clear climax, and I have to admit, the scene gave me the chills - it's when the main character reminisces the best moments in his life. This scene also leads to the punch line of the story - served rightfully by the homeless man.
The story made me feel good and sad at the same time. In my opinion that makes one great short film!

Blå mænd (2008)
Excellent!
Not much to say other than, loved it! Danish humor at its best with some of the hottest danish actors around. Crazy about Mick Øgendahl's jokes and acting! Seen all his previous projects over and over again, so it's nice to see something new come out from his side. Even down to the smallest characters we see great casting, so that could alone give this film a 10/10, but seeing them all coming together in this picture is plain awesome ! The directing is great too. Watch this with a couple of your best friends and it's sure to be a great night! I'm so gonna get this on DVD when it arrives, and it's gonna be my best friends Christmas present as well.
