The Bigger Picture film club ? ?Force Majeure? (2014) at East Dulwich Tavern on 15 October 2015


Recommended Posts

The Bigger Picture film club will be showing ? ?Force Majeure? (2014) at 8pm on Thursday, 15 October 2015, Upstairs at East Dulwich Tavern.


This wickedly funny and precisely observed psychodrama tells the story of a model Swedish family - handsome businessman Tomas, his willowy wife Ebba and their two blonde, pre-teen children - on a skiing holiday in the French Alps. The sun is shining and the slopes are spectacular but, during lunch at a mountainside restaurant, an avalanche turns everything upside down. With panicked diners fleeing in all directions, Ebba calls out for her husband as she tries to protect their children. Tomas, however, makes a decision that will shake the family's world to its core. Although the anticipated disaster fails to occur, his marriage now hangs in the balance as he struggles to reclaim his role as family patriarch.


The film portrays the clash between our attempts to control nature, whether of landscapes or feelings, and the inevitability with which the world, and our own fallibility, confound and leave us stranded.


Directed by Ruben ?stlund, with Johannes Kuhnke, Lisa Loven Kongsli, Clara Wettergren

    • Labour have moved to the right aping Tory words.  Thought you'd like this 
    • Think this is a business, ambush marketing.  Why not I suppose 😊 
    • AHH it's been a really difficult season for growing trees, there is bound to be a shortage.  Too much rain, too much snow, too cold, too warm, too dry.  That will explain the high costs.  Well that is what they say every year. They are already out in car parks and the like.  Local schools do them as well.  We will get our Lidl one out in a couple of weeks or so from the garden.  Remember a 🎄 is not just for Christmas
