The Secret Life of Words

On friday the 17th August, it is Robert De Niro's birthday. He has the privilege having participated in the same movie as Aurore (writes Gunnar), namely Ronin.

It is also the day wee see the premiere of Isabel Coixet's The Secret Life of Words.

After arriving to Zita and getting our tickets we want to come into the movie theatre.

We realize that the woman taking our tickets happens to be... Marie Boberg (film buyer at Folkets Bio). I joke with her "Have you become a volonteer?".

The theater is rather empty. Everyone has prefered the next screening introduced by a personality.

The feature film we watch is uneven. Many characters could be avoided. Many micro-stories too. Sarah Polley is very good as a former victim of tortures.
Tim Robbins is... Tim Robbins.
It could have been better.
