Intro: I wanted to watch this movie since it won the Oscar back in 2021, but I never found the right time. So it was nice to share this moment with Yegor.
Film 2389: "Druk" (2020), Thomas Vinterberg
Watched on: From the TV
Language: Danish
Watched with: Yegor
Thoughts: I enjoyed 'Another Round', especially its interesting premise and Mads Mikkelsen's performance.
There's a lot of drinking and spiriling in the name of 'research', to test if being slightly drunk on a daily basis actually unlocks creativy and confidence. It sounds fun at the beginning, but the plan obviously derails quickly enough.
As a personal note, I also enjoyed witnessing how the Danish school system works, so different from my experience in Italy.
Cast: Mads Mikkelsen, Thomas Bo Larsen, Magnus Millang, Lars Ranthe, Maria Bonnevie.
Box Office: $21.7 million
Worth a watch?: It has its moment of fun, but definitely this is not the fun ride it would appear to be. So better be prepared for it.
Awards: 1 Oscar win for Best International Feature Film and an Oscar nomination for Best Director. Nominated for 4 BAFTAs (for Best Direction, Actor in a Leading Role and Original Screenplay), it won for Best Film Not in the English Language. Nominated at the Golden Globes for Best Foreign Language Film; it won Best Foreign Film at the César Awards.
Key word: Experiment.
