Blinkende lygter/Flickering Lights
Our film this evening is Danish and one where they use the black humour being so common in Danish film making. Not common in a negative sense of the word because they often use it in a brilliant way. In this film too.
Four small-time gangsters from Copenhagen (played by Søren Pilmark, Ulrich Thomsen, Mads Mikkelsen, Nikolaj Lie Kaas, where the three last have gone on to act in international productions) steal over 4,000,000 Danish kroner which they were supposed to bring to a gangster boss.
Their plan is to flee to Barcelona but they are forced to stop in the countryside, in an old, worn-down house, hiding there for several weeks.
After some time they get attached to this house and surrounding and they decide that they would stay there.
Their plan is to renovate the house and make it into a restaurant.
What they didn't foresee was that the gangster boss could show up some day, as he does.
In the role as the gangster boss we see the Swedish actor Peter Andersson, he also a very fine actor, seen in the Millenium movies but also in films by Björn Runge, among other œuvres.
