Heavy Scandinavian humor

por Bessie Ahrens (2021-03-29)


For the query'Scandinavian humor'Yandex, one example is, sends you only 4 absolutely matching links. At least one is complete nonsense, the next results in a look at Erlend Lou's literary creation, which really has quite adequate humor - Volvo Trucks, your third - to your entry in LiveJournal using the wording'heavyweight Scandinavian humor ', the fourth to some certain forum to individual'Norman theory and Scandinavian humor ', and I didnrrrt see anything about humor directly. The picture is symptomatic, right?

To put it briefly, in the event the descendants of your Vikings have humor, it is rather peculiar. Definitely not the Russian folk "three ha-ha" and not perhaps the idiotic Bin from Foggy Albion, very understandable and nearby the Russian soul.

Here, we should don't forget the truth that the characters will humor in'The Most Important Boss'with the suggestion and beneath the strict guidance in the well-known many-something-fob Lars Trier, the carrier from the proudly attached prefix'von ', which in itself is funny if have an idea of ​​some facts about the director's biography with the exceptional previous film works.

However, Trier, famous for his unbridled film innovation, having filmed films off imaginable and inconceivable genres, beginning mystical legends in hospital interiors, ending with social drama against the history of the black backdrop, complacently and naturally transferred his efforts on the comedy genre, as the one virgin soil, hitherto remaining unplowed. However, many viewers, studying the "fresh" Trier, will understand that they've no a sense of humor. Or the Dane doesn't have it. "Which is more inclined," we tell them in consolation.

The plot is not difficult: the director of any certain mid-range IT company hires an unemployed actor to effectively and convincingly portray the "most critical boss" as the name indicated, who does not happen in nature, who is here towards the Danish kingdom to confirm his own family based business, for an average fee. Everything.

An hour and forty minutes of screen time "the chief boss" enters funny troubles of any boltological nature, accepting conflicts and approximately close relations with a cubicle employees (6 "old people" with respect for gender balance), with the ex-girlfriend, through an Icelander, with an employer ... Four times mcdougal himself intervenes inside the events, while using confident voice on the creator "exposing" the comedy for the viewer, voicing and illustrating the laws on the genre's existence.

In general, the humor in "The Most Important Boss" really should be WANTED to see. I needed to, and it was funny to me. Not at all times, she didn't tear her tummies, but there are adequate truly funny situations. And the atmosphere of the original absurdity is extremely successfully based on the image, whose originality is born, apparently, to ab muscles Automavision, introduced by Trier, because no living and healthy operator would dare to shoot like that. Very often in the heart of the frame there exists a doorway, then a pc monitor, then only half of the character's face, uttering remarks. Feeling that the camera lives a unique life, irrespective of the characters. And computer system courses funny.

To mention that the image is minimalistic should be to say nothing! In "Boss" we come across a kind of hi-tech through the cinema: white smooth walls, office furniture - completely straight lines and standard colors, office equipment, judging through the disposition inside the frame, playing the title role, faces and figures of characters.

It you can see that with this kind of ascetic plot and scenery, the audience's interest automatically shifts towards characters within the film and what they claim (to a lesser extent, what they are doing). To "keep" the interest rate and attention of the general public, you will need to PLAY! And they're playing.

One cannot but praise, 123movies certainly, Jens Albinus, whose surprisingly stupid and touching face, "The primary boss" owes a huge portion of his success. The roles of losers and bungler look really good within the performance of just such guys, causing sympathy and slight annoyance at a similar time.

An intriguing fact is the presence while in the casting of the director of your heavyweight, affectionately accepted right at that moment "Angels on the Universe", the Icelander Fridrik Thor Fridriksson inside the role of a company partner, or a potential buyer of this whole office, completely indefatigable and uncontrollable, damn HOT (huh) and intensely undiplomatic Icelandic uncle Finnur. The role is small, but very striking.

Of women, perhaps, I'd like to praise the "real blonde" Iben Yail, who is still remembered by me for your role of the hysterical Scandinavian girlfriend of your character John Cusack in Stephen Frears'"High Fidelity", and also a good game in "Dogme-95" No. 3 - "Mifune's Last Song" ... Excellent madama. P-ara is where she was required to - can have settled in Hollywood with numerous royalties.

As opposed to conclusions.

The movie is funny and original, but is not lacking an affordable number of boredom. On the comedy, pure water seriously isn't drawn, but quite watchable, or even at 2 am. I wouldn't recommend it to everyone and everyone, but fans of Trier's antics will, I do think, be satisfied. As, however, and connoisseurs of oh-oh-very subtle, barely noticeable humor. Anyone who would like to fool around and then determine how cinematic geniuses get it done - you might be welcome! That way.
