Just Another Love Story (2007) Kærlighed på film (original title): Life in the suburbs as a father of two has worn down Jonas. When a victim of a car crash mistakes him for her boyfriend Sebastian, things take a very dramatic turn as the line between truth and deception is erased. (7.2)
Director: Ole Bornedal
Stars: Anders W. Berthelsen, Rebecka Hemse and Nikolaj Lie Kaas
Language: Danish (w/ English subtitles)
Once you start down the path of a small white lie, it may easily snowball into a big deception. Also, the grass is greener on the other side, specially so when your side is boring and mundane. The movie starts out slowly with an everyday working-class family, but turns into a thriller at the end. Quite nicely done. Obviously not intended for the American audience, and even the dialog takes small jab at the Hollywood scripts. The nudity may be a bit much, but perhaps useful in creating the realism. My Rating: 7.0
