"The Inheritance (Arven)" Danish director Per Fly's grim fable communicates the gray, tortured mood one expects from the country where Hamlet was set. Ulrich Thomsen plays Christoffer, an amiable Stockholm restaurant owner who's summoned back to Copenhagen only to learn that his father, the owner of a steelworks, has hanged himself as a result of corporate losses. Fly's scrupulous camera follows Christoffer as his decision to resurrect the business leads to difficult moral choices. "The deft understatement of the actors and the resistance of cinematic artifice make the tale all the more devastating" (Lisa Rose, Newark Star-Ledger). In Danish with English subtitles. 115 minutes. |
