I've barely seen anything negative about it, apart from that it wasn't particularly successful at the box office. For my own part I was quite disappointed after all the good stuff I'd heard. Like you I couldn't connect to it emotionally. Unlike you I was far from impressed by the acting, with the exception of the child actor Lindqvist, who was outstanding.<br /><br />A few other Swedish film bloggers have also been boggled about what the critics found so fantastic about it. Our theory is that they were dazzled by the fact that deNiro gave it praise.<br /><br />http://thevelvetcafe.wordpress.com/2011/09/09/swedish-she-monkeys-conquers-the-world-but-doesnt-convince-me/Jessicahttp://www.thevelvetcafe.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-556159764413551252.post-50187318938297936432012-02-25T07:57:50.692-08:002012-02-25T07:57:50.692-08:00Cool, I hope you do, it's always good to read ...Cool, I hope you do, it's always good to read your thoughts on movies I've reviewed.Bonjour Tristessehttp://www.bonjourtristesse.net/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-556159764413551252.post-35709048043872520662012-02-25T07:57:49.733-08:002012-02-25T07:57:49.733-08:00Aha, you've hit on the main difficulty with re...Aha, you've hit on the main difficulty with reviewing foreign films.
