Holy shit this movie is funny. As of now, it's my favorite of the festival. I don't even really know what to say. It's just hilarious and so competantly made. The characters are endearing, the situations feel natural and earned. Nothing's forced. The performances are stellar. The writing's smart and raunchy and in some ways represent reality but in others show this strange near-alternate universe much like Curb Your Enthusiasm where all the pieces fit together. gush gush gush gush gush. So funny.

The ending had me light-headed with laughter. It's really amazing. I want to track down the tv show in which this is based now and see everything I can find. I am completely in love with this movie.

The director and producer had some really inciteful comments during the Q&A for us ignorant Americans. One thing he said was that the guy who played Casper is really famous in Denmark. I found that interesting because he has a clear charisma on screen where even in the first scene where he's just part of a group and I had no idea he would be one of the stars of the film, I felt magentized toward him and wished he would show up more as the film went on. he looks like a Danish version of Kenneth Branagh in hipster costumes but has the type of vibe like Vince Vaughn in Swingers. Tour de Pussy, Frank! Tour de Pussy! Pussy beats fatherhood! Hilarious.

Ahh... this was good.
