I just got this DVD and it's been very worth watching (2wice through in 2 days) even though I stupidly got the one without subtitles so I've missed out on quite a bit of understanding in the long talking bits. I did find the words to that beautiful song on u-tube tho'.Fantastic!
Possibly because of the language problem, it did make the whole thing quite a uniquely different film-watching experience,(not nec.a bad thing) but it really reached out to me about finding, expressing and being brave enough to live your truth... Would love to watch it again - this time understanding the words though. Maybe there's someone out there who can tell me how I might get hold of an English transcript of the script?! >>More Details |

There are good things in this movie, but plot is not one of them. The initial build up - the lost guy, the two mysterious women next door with their strange requests and their labyrinthine apartment - promises much, with shades of John Fowles' "Magus". However, the movie builds up too quickly to a single shockingly violent sex scene and then rather loses any sense of direction for the remaining two thirds of its running time. Clearly the labyrinth is a metaphor for what is happening inside John's (the protagonist) head. The denouement is therefore not that surprising, but wraps up the plotline neatly. However, for a short movie, it spends too much time lost between a short build-up and an equally short conclusion.
Good things are the photography ... Read More: >>More Details |

Lukas Moodyson's best film sees him at his most optimistic. Whilst his later works have gone on to explore the darker side of modern European life, Together manages to be both genuinely funny and moving and ultimately uplifting. Moodyson portrays children wonderfully in all his films; here using them to allow us to see the strange worlds we create as adults for what they really are. Snow, politics, love, alcoholism, ABBA, hippies and friendship - what more do you want from a film?

This Finnish-Swedish crossover movie is a terrific example of a film being completely overlooked by the world as a whole. Albeit apparently quite popular within the two previously mentioned countries, this is a film that could touch millions such is it's appeal.
Mother Of Mine tells one of the unheard stories of World War II which is that of Finnish children being sent to Sweden for their own safety. If you're British and reading this, think Goodnight Mister Tom, only more European, less sappy and much more powerful. Not that Goodnight Mister Tom is any kind of disgrace, but just mentioning it in the same context as Mother Of Mine just isn't right as Mother Of Mine is undeniably epic, both in it's storytelling and it's location of the Swedish coast, a ...
