SUMMARY:The Commune - 4PM
DESCRIPTION:Screening: Thursday\, July 20\, 2017 – 4:00 pm\nUptown Theatre\, 55 Dunlop St. W.\, Barrie\nDirected by: Thomas Vinterberg\nCast: Trine Dyrholm\, Ulrich Thomsen and Helene Reingaard Neumann\nDrama\, 18A for mature thematics\, sexuality and some nudity\, 112 minutes\,\nDanish with English Subtitles (Denmark/Sweden/Netherlands) \n  \n[btnsx id=”3130″] \n  \nThe new film by lauded Danish director Thomas Vinterberg (“The Celebration\,” Oscar® nominated “The Hunt”) examines the fallout from the social upheavals of the 1970s through the microcosm of a Copenhagen commune. Anna (Trine Dyrholm\, who won Best Actress at the 2016 Berlinale for her performance) is a television newswoman; her husband\, Erik (Ulrich Thomsen)\, teaches architecture at a university\, but the grim reality of mentoring people whose career prospects are brighter than his own has left him disgruntled and bored. When Erik’s father passes away\, the couple must decide what to do with the huge house that Erik grew up in\, as it’s too expensive for them to occupy on their own. Erik prefers selling\, but Anna — who has become frustrated with Erik’s dour outlook and longs for something new — suggests that they use this opportunity to experiment with communal living (which was all the rage in Scandinavia at the time). Energized by the era’s relaxed taboos\, Anna and Erik assemble a diverse\, rather motley crew of cohabitants and embark on their adventure\, but soon take very different paths. Driven by brilliant lead performances from Vinterberg’s “Celebration” stars Thomsen and Dyrholm and supporting turns from Lars Ranthe and Fares Fares\, THE COMMUNE is a sharply observed study of how new values can quickly come into conflict with old habits and affiliations. \n  \n  \nAwards: \nWon\, Best Actress (Dyrholm)\, Berlin International Film Festival 2016\nWon\, Best Actress (Dyrholm)\, Bodil Awards 2017\nNominated\, Best Feature\, Chicago International Film Festival 2016\nNominated\, Narrative Feature Competition\, Montclair Film Festival (MFF) 2017 \n  \n  \n\n  \nProgram is Sponsored by:
