Great movie great cast great universal story
This is one of my favorite European movies of this time. Joachim Trier is one of the best directors of the new generation. The cast is unforgettable, Anders Danielsen Lie embraces the angst of my generation with a stunning performance.
Twenty-four hours
A very tragic look into twenty-four hours of a recovering drug addict's life. You see just how much of a struggle life is after years of therapy and how he finds it difficult to reintegrate back into everyday life.
Seeing addiction from the eyes of the addict
This movie ends on a sad note but in a way that allowed me to accept and learn from the tragedy. The movie shows the complexity of addiction. It challenged me not to be judgmental, yet by the end, I accepted that the choices that people make have powerful consequences. I related to how the main character's broken state left him guessing at what is normal, and I was impressed by the way that the movie communicated this. This isn't a feel good movie, so don't bother if that's what you want. It is deep and creative on a whole new level. It is one the most creative portrayals of human brokenness that I have ever seen.
