I love your dating of films Frederik B - Hard to be God has just made it through the film festivals. Should be in screens in '15.

I just go by world premiere. And we hardly get to see everything first, just a lot of European/Asian fare. So stuff like Hard to be a God or Closed Curtain, but on the other hand we have to wait for stuff like Imitation Game and Unbroken, so it's about equal.
And more annoyingly, hardly anything ever gets actual premieres here. Hard to be a God just showed a single time back in april, on a friday afternoon, at the festival. Packed audience, though. Fun experience. Later that evening I saw Stranger by the Lake, then went drinking, then next morning saw Norte, pretty hungover. Good times.

Frederik the Danish tourist board should just give you a job (if you don't already work there). It does all sound v good!

Stranger by the Lake would be my Great movie of this year--since many critics are counting it as a '14 film, I will as well. Liked Boyhood a lot without being over the moon about it, but compared to the looks of this year's Oscar-bait, I sure won't begrudge it any awards. Would be completely in favour of a Supporting Actor win for Hawke, in fact.
