I love Scandinavian cinema. Limited dialogue and cinematographic minimalism. My hopes were elevated when I saw how this film was paralleled with the superior My Life As A Dog (1987). Cross My Heart And Hope To Die is skillfully directed by Marius Holst with adroit cinematography by Philip Ogaard. Martin Dahl Garfalk is fine as an Oslo teen who feels isolated. However, his life is turned upside down when a mysterious stranger comes to town. Cross My Heart And Hope To Die offers an engaging slice of Norwegian teen life.
