Review of Truly Human

Truly Human (2001)
10/10
Dogme does it again
6 April 2001
"Et rigtigt menneske" means "a real human-being". This movie is about ordinary people, their life, happiness and misery.

It's about a couple (Peter Mygind and Susan Olsen) who's much to occupied by their work to take care of their little daughter, Sara. Sara, however, has a invisible friend, P. Under mystical circumstances, P comes to life as a "real human being", but has no idea how it is living in the year 2001.

There's a lot of laughs throughout the movie, but beside that it's also a story about a man who just wants to live as a normal person.

Since the movie is under the dogme-rules (hand-held camera, no sound-post-production etc.), it has nothing but what every movie really should have: a great story and some brilliant acting.

The characters are all absolutely perfect, the dialog is amazing and the story are really something.

One of the best pictures this year. Go see it; you wont regret it.
