Due dei film più interessanti dell’anno portano la firma di Tobias Lindholm, sceneggiatore assieme a Thomas Vinterberg de Il sospetto e regista in proprio per A Hijacking.
Lindholm tornerà a collaborare con il pupillo di Von Trier per il copione di The Commune, tratto da un dramma teatrale dello stesso Vinterberg.
Secondo Lindholm: It’s a story about a family that destroys itself by moving into this small community. Instead of spending their energy on being together they become very interested in a lot of people all the time, and maybe just as I feel when I direct, they lose their sense of and focus on what’s important in life. You could say it’s kind of a Nordic, dark Scandinavian version of Ice Storm.
I love to write for him because you know that the scenes you write, even though they are very much alive [to you], they will become even more alive with him and the actors — he has a certain way of working with them. He is a very skilful drama director with a great sense of human beings.
