The Swedish film Evil was nominated for best foreign language film.


TOPICS: Arts/Photography
KEYWORDS:
The novel is written by Jan Guilliou (one of his earlier books) and is almost compulsory in Swedish schools. Personally I highly recommend the book which I think is available in English.

On a parallel path, liberals are trying to identify pure "Evil" to nominate him as their Presidential Candidate for the Democrat Party.

Why did the Swedes make a film about the Clintons?

Good one! but actually I have heard rumours there is supposed to exist an "adult" flick called "the intern" - or praktikanten in Swedish. Do not know if it´s true though....

I haven't seen the film though i read the book a few years ago. As an "autobiography" I think it does shed some light on why Mr Guillou grew up to become such a pompous asshole.
