Bleeder

1999, Movie, 1h 37min

On the gritty margins of Copenhagen, two friends drift apart as violence and obsession take hold. Disaffected alcoholic Leo (Kim Bodnia) struggles with a crumbling relationship and growing rage, while shy film nerd Lenny (Mads Mikkelsen) retreats into his world of VHS tapes and fantasy. Boundary-pushing director Nicolas Winding Refn’s follow-up to his bombshell debut PUSHER is equally raw and unflinching in its potent look at masculinity, alienation, and the point where repression turns to eruption.

Danska filmer är ju nästan alltid toppen. Denna hamnar dock inte bland mina favoriter eftersom en del berättelseförlopp inte gjorde rätt för sig i slutet. Den går helt klart under huden på tittaren, vilket är anledningen till det höga betyget.
