This is a Swedish film about a love story between two middle aged musicians - well, maybe a bit older than middle aged. It's quite a story. I do recommend it but there will be parts that are quite sad to watch. It's a good film to watch with someone you love.
It made me realize that much of the time, I may be relating not to the person before me here and now, but to my ideas and memories of how he or she has been in the past. That makes every interaction a near miss - a little late by a day or week or moment. Now that I write this, I guess it's an obvious thing. But the movie brought it home to me in a poignant way so that I really know it now.
I'll give the film 4 stars. Acting, by the way, was superb. There are English subtitles.
