After the Wedding / Efter brylluppet / Denmark/Sweden / 2006

One part Thomas Vinterberg’s Festen, another part unashamed rollercoaster-of-emotion, Susanne Bier’s After the Wedding is unavoidable indebted to Ingmar Bergman in its Saraband-like style of conversation: Each character does, at one point, spend a few minutes alone—yelling, crying, laughing—with another character, until they’ve all revealed to one another their innermost feelings. And while After the Wedding is incredibly well-acted—Sidse Babett Knudsen’s performance alone is astounding—the film becomes tiresome near the end.
