CGiii Comment

On the strength of this, Malmros is very lucky to have a career in filmmaking.

Three exceedingly dull periods in a boy's life - Ole@5, @15-ish, @20-ish...and then, inexplicably, back to being 5 again...for a ludicrous scene with two young boys stripping off to play 'Couples'...

There is no directorial flair, no incisive dialogue...absolutely nothing to recommend watching this monotonous piece of self-indulgence.


No trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...

Boys grow into men, but their carefree frolicking becomes tinged with bitterness.
