Movie Haiku:Given that Bier’s last film BROTHERS (also written by Anders Thomas Jensen) made our ’05 TWOZIES list, our expectations were high. WEDDING struck us both as a bit too overstuffed & melodramatic, but the terrific acting won us over. Keep your eyes on “Jørgen” (Lassgård); this is really his story, not Mikkelsen’s.
