Minor Mishaps

Another stumbled upon gem, this time from the Danes. I have a weakness for (what Americans often call "odd") foreign films which seem to effortlessly (and without at least familiar devices) explore droll humanity with complex characters. Minor Mishaps comes from Denmark--which if I remember right has produced similar good films of this ilk. The ensemble cast delivers a range of responses to a life-changing event that opens the action. Each is different; habitual, reactionary, natural or thoughtful. It's smart, funny and unassuming and true.
And of course, no car chases, cheap sex or violence, or long, soundtrack guided speeches. Good stuff!
