The Last Viking
An unexpected gem from Denmark. Came for the Scandi-noir, stayed for the offbeat and thoughtful story. Out loud laughs from the audience at Dundee Contemporary Arts but I wouldn't call it a comedy. I haven't seen anything else from this director (Anders Thomas Jensen) so I'll have to fix that.
I know I always give 5 stars but, spoiler, I don't for the next one.
