‘Families Like Ours’ Review: Thomas Vinterberg’s Grimly Prophetic Series Tackles Subject That Is Perhaps Too Huge For The Confines Of A TV Drama – Venice Film Festival
Read Deadline's review of Thomas Vinterberg's series Families Like Ours
The evacuation process is all very Nordically organized, with few hints of the looting, battles for places on departing boats or inevitable rebel hold-outs that would almost certainly make the real thing chaos, but would also clutter Vinterberg’s jigsaw of stories. Fans of Vinterberg’s Danish films — which include the Oscar-winning Another Round — will enjoy the familiarity of his favored set pieces: a wedding dance, crowds bursting into harmonious song, the echoing vastness of a church. There is also a kind of comfort in seeing so many of the remarkable actors who came to international prominence with the Dogma movement: Paprika Steen, Thomas Bo Larsen, Nikolaj Lie Kaas, David Denrick, Magnus Millang.
