Everlasting Moment Swedish Review :
Jan Troell’s “Everlasting Moments” is a film whose title gives a clue about the kind of mood it wants to create. Set in Sweden in the early decades of the 20th century, this movie unspools at a leisurely, episodic pace, dwelling on the details of domestic life with a care that is both naturalistic and nostalgic. From the start, a narrator’s voice establishes that this is a daughter’s reminiscence of her parents’ long, often painful marriage, and her wistful, elegiac recollections extend to the film’s visual texture, its brownish hues and grainy, wintry sunlight. The meticulousness with which Mr. Troell attends to matters of illumination and composition (he shares the director of photography credit with Mischa Gavrjusjov) is especially apt given that the most important household object in “Everlasting Moments” is a camera. — A. O. Scott, The New York Times
Sweden's proud submission for Best Foreign Language Pic at this year's Academy Awards, "Maria Larsson's Everlasting Moments" really does seem to last forever, clocking a 131-minute runtime filled with socialist sentiments, early photography techniques and a whole lot of 1900s alcoholism, infidelity and domestic violence. Not to be confused as the biopic of a current Swedish politician, the oft-reviewed period drama is a semi-rewarding foray into the true story of a laundry woman living in those times who won a camera in a lottery and pursued the art of mastering the curious contraption as a hobby, despite her surrounding poverty and matrimonial problems.
The titular lead played by Maria Heiskanen is half the strength of the film, a character which other reviewers have described as being afforded an Imelda Staunton-like portrayal with equal ease in carrying angst and tenderness. However a much more visually-arresting character is her drunkard, wife-beater of a husband Sigfried, played by a faultless Mikael Persbrandt. You know a good actor when you fail to hate his character despite him doing some truly horrendous things. The other prominent part is photo shop enthusiast Sebastian Pedersen (Jesper Christensen), who plays a kind man fuelling Maria's love for the lens and ends up falling for her.
Perhaps due to it being an adaptation from research and interviews conducted between the director's wife and the daughter of the 19th century woman, a story as real as Maria Larsson's will give rise to uneven attention being paid to a whole volume of events, especially without an expert touch. Director Jan Troell's product is a subtle drama without much stark darkness or humour, resulting in an insightful but ultimately mediocre experience in terms of full-epic impact.
