“Ferrantes girls in flight”
“Amelie Björck see My amazing friend in Istanbul”
“When Elena Ferrantes Neapelkvartett played at Årsta Folkets hus I think in the 50’s here and there. How the Swedish folkhemspolitikerna planned to förortsfolket would be a part of theatre, cinema and library, while all such in the poor neighbourhood where girls Lenù and Purple growing up is a luxury to quietly pray. “
“In their godforsaken backwater is hederskulturens and the law. Rich will be by to align themselves with the right Camorra-anstrukna families – or write a book, the girls ‘ dream.”
“nHur boil down around 1700 pages loved romantext to a manageable piece? Uk April de Angelis reply will be a cavalcade of nyckelscener where the hard fact rather than processes are presented. Suddenly there is a new lover, a child or two, a murdered friend. For anyone who is not the story, it becomes fragmentary, and many characters to keep track of.”
“Ruth Vega Fernandez plays with authority the uncompromising Purple, which refuses to ”female” appeasement, and Maja Runge the more well tempered Lenù, which literally bring Lilas sharp formulations in the world of school, the Purple soon excluded from. These fine actors seem completely nonthreatening to create themselves as children and adults, with each other as kontrapunkter in love and rivalry, while life is rushing past.”
“ntoo goes with a great speed. Scenbytena is nicely seamless and the style musikalliknande, but without the vocals. Choreographic elements rytmiserar and gives the spirit of the times, sometimes a little silly, but effective in the slow-motion scenes, such as when Lilas father throws out the girl through the window and the neighbors with their hands pursues and subdues her case. It is usually a judgmental collective emits a temporary heating.”
“Ferrante has been hailed for its ability to tie together the political and the private, and already in the first meeting between the Purple and Lenù is the large in the small. It is a nice urscen, when the girls throw down each other’s dolls in the basement and fantasizing about the town’s strong man Don Achille stopped them in their ”black purse”, a concept only later to be included in a class analysis.”
“the young women’s political consciousness squeezed out of the hard life experiences and negotiations with the their own desire and longing for wealth. The men will be, if possible, even otäckare here than in the novels, they are close to pojkgråt, but always than closer to the threats and violence.”
“I would have preferred a slower tempo, maybe with the base in the first novel only. But on the basis of the premises, it is a beautiful ensemblearbete offered, and with lively temperament.”
