Flame and Citron, 2008
The Telluride Film Festival is coming up this Labor Day Weekend. They do not announce their films until the festival starts, but they usually have a great lineup. I went last year and saw some film gems.
Flame and Citron had sumptuous cinematography, great acting and is based on a true story. It is a haunting WW2 film, from a Scandinavian perspective – a historical perspective I don’t often see, and was very well done. It was reportedly one of the most expensive Danish film ever produced.
