Film tips week 14
Kosmorama recommends quality films for this week.
You can catch these titles either on the big screen or on various streaming services!
The Sweet East
Where: Trondheim Kino
Lillian, a teenager from South Carolina, is separated from her class on a school trip to Washington DC during a bar shooting. From there, she embarks on an Alice in Wonderland-like adventure to the darkest corners of contemporary America.
Before The Sweet East took the Cannes festival by storm this spring, Sean Price Williams was primarily known as a cinematographer to film buffs. Through photographic work on some independent American films, he has distinguished himself as a very exciting cinematographer. With his directorial debut, he further confirms this. The film, a nihilistic journey through the United States, where neither conservatives nor liberals are safe, is packed with pitch-dark humor that masterfully takes the pace of a nation at breaking point. In front of the camera, Williams has shooting star Talia Ryder (Never Rarely Sometimes Always), Simon Rex (Red Rocket), Jacob Elordi (Euphoria), and a number of others.
Kjærlighetens Kjøtere
Where: Cinemateket
It is 1925. Norway's capital has changed its name, Lenin is dead and the young writer Henrik Larsen has just proposed to his girlfriend Gertrude. She declines, at least for now. Adventure-seeking Henrik leaves her and signs up to winter in Greenland as a trapper. The stay there introduces him to the extremes and harsh realities of life, especially the meeting with the scientist Holm and the experienced and vulgar trapper Randbæk. The film music by Terje Rypdal helps to create the dark atmosphere in the film.
The Cabin in the Woods
Where: streaming
To round off Easter we recommend the cabin-film The Cabin in the Woods om streaming!
Five friends go on a weekend trip to a remote cabin deep in the forest. Funny things happen. Sounds like a classic creep, doesn't it? If you think you know the rest of the story, think again.
