After the Berlin Film Festival there were some very positive remarks:

"This is the moment when you realize why there are movies."
http://weblog.gruppe-weimar.de/2008/02/11/to-verdener

"It is a tribute to be paid: at a film festival you have to watch a number of mediocre or even horrible movies and one evening there it is, the buster, who reconciles for all the boring minutes. The Danish movie "Worlds Apart" even reconciles for festivals in the past."

The Danish movie "To Verdener" (Worlds Apart) is currently No. 1 in Danish movie charts. (No 2 is "No Country for Old Men")

Here are already threads on the movie:

The movie was also part of the Berlin Film Festival and critics were absolutely exalted.

I wrote to the movie company if they plan to show it nationwide in Germany. I think there is some potential.

The number of people older than 65 years is also rather low. Either they do not get very old or they stop being JW when they can no longer participate in the house-to-house-work and feel the "love".

Once, I wrote in an internet thread that I attended several cult exiting workshops. My father read it and wrote me an e-mail stating that he would make sure that I will not inherit a single Euro. I am the single child of my parents.
