——UPGRADED——

In his fourth feature, Århus loyalist Nils Malmros continues his reminiscing fiction portryals of school days in the 1950s. You follow a class during its final years of grade school. The kids are teenagers, clannish, clownish, sweet and vicious, struggling to make sense of their physical and mental growing pains. The film was shot over two years: the cast literally grew up along with the action.

    I really felt sorry for Elin. Her mother was overly strict. I didn’t actually figure out any other reason why she was left out of the group. I most DEFINITELY did not like the ending, to me it just left things dangling. The very brief shower scene was nice, and the even quicker look at the girl being felt-up was quite interesting. It is interesting that most of the music being played was well-known music here in the United States.

    Excellent Malmros movie, Aarhus in the 1950s.

    Unfortunately the subtitles are not always accurate. Like it was translated with AI.

      Subtitles look pretty good to me, and they were definitely not translated with AI, they are from a Malmros boxset released in Denmark around 2010, way before any AI translation tools came out.

    I saw this some years ago, in DVD rez, but will welcome this upgraded edition. As the uploader you may not be aware of this, but I just hit a brick wall with this, from another of your MKV links at Files.fm: “Direct download limit reached. Please, login or signup to directly download this file.” Never saw that from them before,. Hope it won’t be a recurrent issue, otherwise I’ll have to skip their links, or go with 1fichier instead. VPN might be another way, but more cumbersome.

      Hey Gene,
      Yeah that thing with files.fm is very annoying and it’s the reason why I stopped uploading on files.fm and switched to gofile, they don’t do that with all files but with the ones that get the most visits and downloads, it seems that once a file reaches 300 downloads or so they start restricting the downloads and ask users to create an account in order to download, a free account but it’s still annoying, so I’m reuploading all the files that already have over 300 downloads and moving them to gofile, it’s going to take a while but I’m already making good progress, so if you find a files.fm link with such message please write on:
      https://rarefilmm.com/ask-for-reuploads-here/
      And I will replace it asap.
      Thanks and thanks a lot for the support!

      All the best,
      Jon.
