Formally less vigorous, Force Majeure is a departure for #RubenÖstlund. Gone are the static long takes & distant wideshots, a la Roy Andersson & it only focuses on one family & their immediate contacts in a luxury ski resort. Östlund takes a crack at that concept of indisputable masculinity. During their ski trip, an avalanche comes down to where Tomas & his perfect white Swedish family are having breakfast on the balcony. In a blinding panic, Tomas flees the scene, leaving horrified family behind. But it turns out that the avalanche didn't reach where they were, just blowing some snow over them. Tomas comes back, as if nothing has happened. But for his family, their inner peace is shattered, forever. So how does Tomas reclaim his masculinity & show his family that assurance? Do we admit that we are all scared shitless little boy inside, despite our manly exterior? Not that his other films are laugh out loud comedies, but I find Force Majeure more disturbing than funny. #forcemajeure

👆 Fortunately all bets are off in the few days of horse-trading after a #GeneralElection.

"I'm about to let #ForceMajeure make me do things I said I'd never do."

Maybe LAB need it to look like they were forced into #PR?

(In a "make it look like an accident, Mr. Bond" style.)

👆 #Circumstances and #ForceMajeure will be calling the shots. The #Brexperiment equates to learning about hand-grenades by seeing what happens once the pin is pulled out. (💥)

Also, don't forget #Demographics:
a lot of old racists* & #Tory-voters & #Leave-voters will be shuffling off even as we speak. ⚰

[* For the absence of doubt, no, I'm not saying all oldsters are racists; I'm an oldie & not the R-word. Or the T-word. Or the L-word.]
