Låt den rätte komma in


haha...hope you enjoyed it as much as i did! sorry about marley and me but i would watch adolescent foreign vampy puppy love story anytime man. really really loved the film. so raw, so much subtle emotion, coming from actors barely over 10 years old. the girl was especially amazing. i could really imagine her being 12 years old, yet 12 years old for a long long time.

what struck me most about the film though was actually the old guy who was eli's guardian, who exuded so much stoical and self sacrificial love for eli that i am convinced he's another previous Oskar, all grown up. so sad, and so sweet, how he gives his life to her as his last act of love, knowing that he had rendered himself useless otherwise.

oh and the 2.5 hour wait for the movie.... wow. just when i thought you couldn't possibly accomplish another one of your feats. you surprise me all the time.


i loved the title. let the right one in. totally.
