I’ll admit it: I went to see this because Alexander Skarsgård is in it. I didn’t expect it to be very good. I’m pleasantly surprised by how much I liked it. In a landscape of bombed out Hamburg after the end of the war, with brutal actions going on throughout, it’s actually a lovely gentle movie that plays on your mind long after you leave the theatre. I expected a love story, instead it portrays the aftermath of war in a different, thought provoking way that was quite unexpected.
