It’s one of the best movies from start to finish perfection. The final scene is cinematic magic. Mads is a master of his craft.

[@sinebachrenleff847]

I am a BIG FAN of Mads Mikkelsen, but can we just appreciate the other actors? Magnus Milang as Nikolaj (the psychology teacher), Lars Ranthe (the music teacher) and Thomas Bo Larsen (the PE teacher) all did an amazing job to make the story come to life! Without them and the stories of their characters, the film wouldn't be half as good as it is! I seriously love everything about this movie - from the actors to the plot and the small details! This movie deserves an oscar and Thomas Vinterberg deserves more credit. When this movie was in the making, his daughter Ida was, unfortunately, a victim of a car accident. They loved the idea for the movie and that's why Vinterberg, her father, continued the movie. If it was for her sake, I don't know, but I'd like to think that Ida would be proud of her dad :-)

They just announced a remake with Dicaprio in the lead, hope its also good

[@sinebachrenleff847]

@@diegoalvarez64 I'm partly excited and partly frightened.. Leonardo DiCaprio is a god, but I dislike the US always making remakes of international movies or tv-series... Why can't they leave the masterpiece that is 'Another Round' alone and stop stealing the credit?

[@lordslashingtonsmoments6125]

@@sinebachrenleff847 in this regard I think Thomas might be feeling proud that his movie was so good that the US wanted to tap into that theme aswell, as much as it can feel like movies or series don't get the respect they deserve because some people would not have any idea where the whole concept comes from originally. Still we gotta see what they do with it before we judge because the culture is so different between US and DK

[@sinebachrenleff847]

@@lordslashingtonsmoments6125 Good point!

[@kaffegal]

I totally get both the pride and the want of doing a remake so all, even those whom wont read subs, might see it. None better than Dicaprio could pick it up. But every time a remake is done of a Scandinavian movie, so much is changed even in the plot, that it's a totally diff film. I hope it's for once 1:1. Thomas, Tobias, the film and the entire cast deserves the success and being noticed.

[@MrMartinSJ]

Actually i think the dance is telling the story and what the movie is about, in the start of the movie, he didn’t want to dance like he used to, he had lost the life sparkle, but at the end after the journey, he started dancing, sad down looked at the sea, thinking about his friend death, and remembered that he just needed to let go, and enjoy life, then jumped from the seat and danced like hell, wonderful, and made me want to enjoy life even more :-)

[@whengrapespop5728]

It also implies that he might get addicted again, as he missed this freedom and doesn’t seem to find it outside of alcohol. So, although he seems free, it might be questionable if the issue really is gone,.

[@u-p-g-r-a-y-e-d-d5782]

Yes as with the scene with the young student and the Kierkegaard quote. Through failure he learned to lose his anxieties. I do think it does suggest the dangerous allure of the alcohol and the party lifestyle though as others have suggested. It is an almost perfect ending that way.

[@milosc__7310]

If you look carefully when he sit down he doesnt just look the sea but he also look at the phone (you can see only the movement of taking the phone in his pocket with the hand), so my opinion is that he also think about his wife and having a second chance with her and more generally with his life; he decides to change his life and live more freely.

[@MrMartinSJ]

So good to see mads and thomas just talking to each other rather than answering the same 5 questions from journalists. Love them. Also that final scene is one of the best endings i've ever seen. The backstory with thomas's daughter adds a completely new dimension to the film and the scene. "It's no secret Mads that of course in the movie you're dancing for Tommy, but in our lives you were dancing for my precious daughter." 😥 heartbreaking

[@kaffegal]

Agree with everything. And funfacts all the students in the last scene, are the deceased daughters classmates from highschool. Another funfact, when you see the boat in the background and the flag is on it, that's the danish Queens boat... and she''s on it then. (otherwise the flag's not up)

[@rosanagle4232]

Frankly, I needed this film. Not to dampen the mood, but working in the health field, throughout 2020, I was scared and tired, approaching 2021. I'm just a medical secretary, now. Ain't a hero nurse, or anything. But, it was still pretty darn scary going to work every day during the pandemic, full-time, then part-time. (Can't earn a living from my writing, see?) In the movie, Martin met adversity, and he danced! And he flew! He was able to fly high. He grieved for his friend. But, then, he got a second chance with his wife. HOPE. Amidst adversity- the idea of hope keeps us going. I think that this is the reason that this film has touched us. In 2021, we all need hope. I'm so thankful for this film!

TheTorqueMusic he's not going to match Mads in this one. Mads Mikkelsen is a trained dancer even though it had been years since his dancing days.

[@yunusbbx8497]

When the final scene came on, I for some reason cried a fuck ton. I was crying for 20 minutes even after the movie ended and i really dont know why. I recorded my own reaction on snapchat and i look so fucking sad. I think this is in my top 10 movies of all time. I do not resonate with anything within the movies main perspectives, yet it hits me and grabs me so well. I am a fellow Dane so i may be biased to our drinking culture, but the thing is, that ending may seem like an extremely happy moment but in reality its actually VERY sad. It completes alot of the problems within the characters like Martins back, getting over the PE teachers death, opening up to the students from the school OUTSIDE OF THE SCHOOL. The fact that the main characters open up like that at the end really shows what kind of control the real life government really are in. This movie by far had the best ending ive seen in any movie EVER. That comes from a guy who's favourite movie is Whiplash.

[@romilrh]

3:46 That final shot is brilliant. Martin dives headfirst back into his alcoholism, and when it freeze-frames, it looks like he's flying. But eventually, he'll hit the water and "drown". A secretly dark meaning in a beautiful, joyous sequence.

[@bonnievandergriff8272]

@Romil it is interesting to read your perspective and take on the final scene where Martin freeze frames as he is jumping off the pier. My take on it was different. I believed that Martin was celebrating and reclaiming his life as he was reconnecting with his wife and had gotten his "mojo" back. There is no right or wrong answer as it is all based on one's own interpretation.
