Comments ...
This drama about responsibility, family and the past reecuentro gets to be a movie very human, yet contained emotion. Thanks to the wonderful work the understated acting and direction by Susanne Bier, the story never manages to avoid falling into the sentimentality of tear easily. Instead, the limelight very present in all the footage (DOGMA own movement which remains the debtor) are like the rest of the film a great depth of emotions, characters and their situation. The script itself is not complex but emotional situations and human portraits that shows whether they are emotionally complex and profound. After the wedding, which was nominated for an Oscar for Best Foreign Language film in 2007, is a very balanced film, but honestly measured moving.
After the wedding is primarily a story of encounters: between people, between people and the places to which they belonged, between past and future. That which we have left behind, sometimes reappearing with unexpected force. Every Secret Revealed opens a new world, a new range of possibilities. And always, when you open one door closes another. Jacob moves on, and we with him through his past to come to a crossroads that seems to leave no options. This poignant drama its strong support in a smart script dialogues, which give the action of a lively pace and an ever-growing interest. The irony, sarcasm and subtext are always present. But if anything stands out beyond the plot, and theme, is by the superb performances from all its players. Especially brilliant are shown Mads Mikkelsen (Jacob) and Rolf Lassgard (Jorgen) that make the scenes believable and moving film hardest.
