“Mads Mikkelsen about the Persbrandt: ”Is not wise as a human””
“GOTHENBURG. Danish film star Mads Mikkelsen will receive this year’s honorary award at the film festival.”
“And the opportunity to speak out about his Swedish colleague Mikael Persbrandt.”
” He is my insane older brother. Thus, he is not wise as a human being, really. And I love him, ” says Mads to Aftonbladet.”
“For Mads Mikkelsen, known from over 50 tv and film roles, for the Swedish people, it started with the tv series ”Mordkommissionen” around the turn of the Millennium, it is a bit special to just the Gothenburg film festival honors him with the Nordic Honorary Dragon Award.”
“She lived here a year in the late 1980s, when he danced at the ballet academy.nOch the first film festival he visited Gothenburg, with the movie ”Flashing lights” in the year 2000.n– We were very satisfied. Thought we got to hang out with people who did ”real” movies. And at the after-party found the Søren Pilmark a piano to play on.”
“Five of his films shown at the festival. After the ”Hunt”, the film he won the skådespelarpriset in Cannes, he holds a Master Class.”
“– the Master Class and the Master Class… so be prepared I am not, it is a journalist who is interviewing me on stage.”
“Right now, Mads Mikkelsen up to date with Netflix-the movie ”Polar”. A violent action movie by Jonas Åkerlund that has been cut overall by most critics.”
“– What should I say… we had perhaps not expected tributes. It is based on a graphic story, it is grotesque, it is a tribute to the old exploitationfilmer, there is sex and violence, the audience has received it well.”
“We’re talking also about Mikael Persbrandt. Colleague and friend, recently played the brothers in the international västernfilmen ”The salvation” of five years ago.”
“– ”Micke”… I love the ”Micke”. A fantastic actor. But he is not wise as a human being. Thus, he is not the real, but in a totally extremely amazing way. He calls me lillbrorsan, so in that case, he is my insane older brother. ”As I remember it”, good title for her autobiography, I have soon read it.”
“Would you like to work together with him again?”
” Absolutely. A good project with him and Stellan (Skarsgard). I love him too. Then I will.”
