Vikaren (aka The Substitute)
2-15-10
This movie was a blast to watch. I couldn't help but be reminded of several films/books from my childhood that had very similar plots. I haven't see this type of story done this well in a long time and suffice to say I was extremely pleased with the results here. The two aspects that stand out for me are the cinematography...which is breath taking. I mean seriously this is some of the best looking stuff I've seen recently. Though the real strength here is the utterly phenomenal cast. The kids are outstanding as is Paprika Steen the titular Substitute. I was taken aback with how authentic her performance as a teacher was. Then to turn it around a be a genuinely creepy alien.....extremely well done.
