Random meandering scenes of young Norwegians all allegedly want to be authors... - Reprise review by PV

Spoiler Alert
27/07/2023

This director made the best film about addiction to hard drugs ever made - 'OSLO 31 AUGUST'. But his later films have always disappointed as does this.

If you sent the script of this to a producer to try and get it made, you'd get nowhere as the voiceover tells, the action does not show, and it flits around from one character to another going nowhere. Not sure I believe these young men would be authors either.

I like the actors both Anders and Odd-Magnuss, all good. Sometimes it is fun. But ultimately, it is a film of random scenes, some of which are of interest and others of which drag badly.

So 2 stars

There is a short film made by the director at the UK National Film School on the extras which is also rather pointless.
