The Trip

 This is a dark, dark comedy. The comedy arises not from a series of witty lines or jokes, out of a very serious situation. I'm not going to spoil what happens in the movie because the movie is really well written, and I think this is a movie that you deserve to come in fresh. I've watched it twice, and I don't think it's a movie that you necessarily need to see more than once, but I was surprised by some details that I had not noticed before. Both of the characters are outsiders in Norwegian Society, one is Jewish, and the other is Swedish and at the beginning of the movie they are both objective failures in the society, and they are punished by the sins of the society that they live in. I can't go into further details, but it is remarkably well acted, and directed. Don't know why this movie is not more popular, it's probably one of the better movies to come out in the last decade.
