1 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Love the book. but never got it from ! Had to get my own copy.By URAThis is a terrific text by a top Nordic Cinema scholar that takes you behind the scenes of the making of an important Dogma 95 film. Highly recommended. I cannot. however. recommend .coms service. because I never actually received the book (or the DVD of the film) that I ordered from them. and was forced to purchase my own copies independently of . defers all delivery questions to UPS. which hasnt been particularly helpful so far in figuring out what happened to my package.
