Though the story couldn't have been expanded on much further owing to time constraints (few people want to watch a three-hour epic these days), what was shown was complete and chillingly real.
Dahlsbakken could've gone crazy the way of "Fatal Attraction," but thankfully kept both feet on the ground - and created a masterpiece.
Anyone who's been involved in "forbidden fruit" of any kind (be it like this, or a simple extramarital affair) will know just how quickly and how completely things go pear-shaped, and that rollercoaster was perfectly portrayed here.
The actors - all of them, including the supporting cast - did a brilliant job. I rarely get to see Norwegian cinema so don't know how accomplished each of them are, but they were all first-class in this movie.
Seriously one of the best movies I've seen in years.
