Review of Submarino (2010) by David H — 18 Jul 2012
Danish director, Thomas Vinterberg, finally distances himself from the pretentious âDogmeâ? style of filmmaking and gifts us with a beautifully made great film with a great story. Adapted from the novel (of the same name), two young boys living with an irresponsible drunken mother become forced to care for their newborn baby brother (shown to us in flashback during the opening scene).
The rest of the movie fast-fowards to the present and examines their besetting anger issues manifesting in crime, failed relationships and addiction while attempting to live normally as emotionally damaged adults.
Sensitive, shocking, gritty, sad and sweet - I loved this film.
