This story about Mads Mikkelsen and “Another Round” first appeared in the International Film Issue of TheWrap’s awards magazine.
Like the guy at the party who’s had a few too many, the filmmakers and cast of “Another Round” had a tough time finding their balance. Director Thomas Vinterberg, co-writer Tobias Lindholm and a cast led by Mads Mikkelsen were making a film in which the lives of a group of high school teachers improve (to a certain point) when they decide to stay a little drunk all the time — and if it was hard to figure out the right tone, it could have been catastrophic if they didn’t.
“It’s difficult to see what this movie is in terms of genre,” Vinterberg said. “There was a constant balance that we had to work on, and we worked on it all the way to the last day of editing.
