ThiefHott Too much of everything

Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

shkaplan The film is very Danish, although you don't have to be Danish to enjoy this. It's very much a post-war film with references to life in Europe after WWII. I saw this on Danish TV after seeing Xanadu, and realised that the American film missed the wit and the charm of the original Danish. Even when the muse's father, Zeus, comes to Earth to rescue his daughter, Zeus is portrayed with everyone's tongue firmly in their collective cheeks.The story is about a Danish Air Force pilot who is working on a musical play and faces writer's block. Polyhymnia comes to spur him on and inspire him to complete the work.Towards end of the film it appears to get predictable, but then at the very end an interesting and unexpected twist takes place...

René Michael Knudsen The muse is played by Bodil Kjer, at a time when her beauty peaked. The story involves a muse sent to Copenhagen to help a composer write a musical show. She falls in love with a man from the airforce and is soon haunted by her father Zeus, who want's her back and cannot allow the daughter of a god to mingle too closely with humans. This storyline is filled out with funny side-caracters and musical-shows that are clearly not American, but inhere lies the films charm. The acting is very good in all roles.The plotline from the film Xanadu, seems nearly to be a ripoff (or can you call it a remake?).
