Understanding Roy


Roy Anderson is just an amazing filmmaker.

There is a certain melancholia to his films, a atmosphere of wonder and brutality intertwined with humor and understanding.

He works with space in a way no other filmmaker does - it is like watching a mixture of paintings and polish comedy from the '60.

His characters are at the same time deeply human and totally superficial.

His use of music is next to none.

Yes - he is by far the best filmmaker in Scandinavia.

Here is my favorite movie song involving a dog-loving nazi and an alcoholic woman!

And he got his training in commercials
