Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Per Fly is back five years after his Denmark-trilogy with a revitalized film style and new actors.Fashion photographer K has had dreams of a strange man. One day she sees a man who looks exactly like the man of her dreams on a restaurant and follows him. When she sees him again the next day at the same place he approaches her.Per Fly made a clear mark within Scandinavian film in the beginning of the 21st century with the modern social realistic trilogy: "The Bench" (2000), "The Inheritance" (2003) and "Manslaughter" (2005), which depicts the different social classes in Denmark. Five years later the Danish film-instructor is back with a multinational and aesthetic film experiment where he and co-writer Dorthe Høgh tells a passionate tale about a happily married woman and mother who finds herself overpowered by a recurring dream. Per Fly's fourth feature film is an ongoing journey between the surreal and the real, from Copenhagen to Warszawa to Paris, and this is strengthened by the non-linear narrative structure, the long takes without dialog, the atmospheric score, the versatile cinematography, the ambiguous close-up shots and Per Fly's confident filming where he visualizes nice perspectives from his own and the main characters point of view."The Woman That Dreamed About a Man" starts off as any kind of romance about a mutual attraction between two strangers from different cultures that has similar lifestyles, but changes rapidly by the director's narrative choices which invites the viewer's into a universe of dreams where the psychological, the erotic, the mystic and the abstract are interlaced while a study of character evolves. Sonja Richter, one of Denmark's most skilled actresses delivers an enthralling performance in a risky role where she has to express more through her eyes than with her lines and emotional repertory. The chemistry between her and Marcel Dorocinski, who does a good job in his role, is present mostly due to Sonja Richter's expressive interpretation. This is a stylish thriller and a radiant figment of imagination that's characterized by Per Fly's enhanced film style where he focuses on the aesthetic, the fictive and the narrative aspects of the film language.

This movie is a great character study that brings you under the skin of the two protagonists. One might have some criticism for the depth or quality of the dialogue, but dialogue is not what this film is about. It is about the emotions and the dreams, the tustles that the protagonists face within their inner selves and with those around them. These are transposed through the visuals rather than the dialogue. While the pace may be slow for some viewers, the crescendo and the climax are perfectly dosed creating a sublimely atmospheric piece of art-house cinema. I strongly recommend this movie to all lovers of true cinema.

I have to say spoiler because i do reveal some parts of the storyline but nothing of all the twists and plots.For some reason people get very defensive on movies about infidelity and rate them low. It could have something to do with the fact that this happens more often to people than, say, a zombie apocalypse and therefore it is closer to home and more frightening.Story: The beautiful successful photographer Karen, magnificent performance of Sonja Richter, living the dream with a loving supporting husband (Michael Nyqvist)and daughter, meets the man of her dreams on a job in Paris. Literally man of her dreams as she dreamed confusing dreams about this man prior to their meeting. Shortly after they have a short encounter she gets into a hopeless downward spiral of obsession losing all dignity.A claustrophobic thriller with a David Lynch-ian twist with the reoccurring dream and a perfect circle of events. If you liked this you will also want to see Damage (Juliette Binoche and Jeremy Irons) and Polanski's Bitter Moon.

Is Lars von Trier hates women, what does this director do? Sadly this is not my line.This tells the story that men just want sex and women a furstrating maniac with no rime or reason. They are no explanation for K desire, but that do not matter. 20 sec into the move you will hate K. She is a person with no feelings and no sense of her job or people. The sex in the film is impossible to buy and her actions are never made clear.The fact that she is a photographer is never put to any use. and oddly enough the camera work is really bad. It out of focus, but not in a good way, in the way of a focus puller wondering what the hell just happened. The lighting looks like it's done by a good ligthguy with 3 monkeys strapet to his back and legs.The classic escalation of nudity is boring. And why is that we a to understand all her feelings with the way she stands in a room, but the director don't think we understand what simple text she gets on her phone, it's has to be pasted all over the place.So to finalise. Men just want sex, women don't know what they want, camera work can't be done by one man and audiences is more clever then a producer.This is about women and sex and after this film you will avoid both, like if you avoid meat after a trip to a slaughter house. Luckily meat rules and after a few weeks you will look at woman again.
