Farväl Falkenberg (2006)
A state of mind
There is a lot of things about this film that I didn't understand. There is no clear sense of direction, no understanding of motive in the characters. It reminds me of Terance Malik's "The Thin Red Line" (although they are very different).
But one thing I know for certain is that when I left the theater I was in a totally different state of mind then when I entered it. I felt calm and relaxed. This is why I voted 9/10 because not many films can do this.
And also reminded me of that period in life just between childhood and being an adult, that limbo where you are free, don't feel the obligations of the grown-up world but still with the sense not being a child.
Finally a Swedish Oscar contribution I can be proud of as a Swede.
Barton Fink (1991)
A masterpiece
Although "Fargo" is the Coen brother most famous film, this is their best. Both John Turturro & John Goodman's performance is excellent and the story is different, thrilling and mystical. A must see for Coen fans and other movielovers.
