Änglagård

This trilogy is just beautiful. You have to look between the lines though. There a so many unspoken Things in these three movies about "Englegård" (Farm for angles), that it makes you love it, because it is done in a perfect realistic way.

The first and the third film are the best. The way the actors, act without saying anything is perfect. We see ordinary persons in more or less ordinary situations. Strangers arriving to a small community where everybody is hiding the truth from each other. Hidden stuff that the stranger's some how reveals. Or do they ??

I just Wonder, could there be one more movie in this story ? There are more unspoken Things about Englegård that has not been told...

I love them....

Said to be a iconic piece in the genre of Drama and within the productions from Sweden! Yet i havent watched this until now and ive heard so much about it, so i had pretty high expectations.

I got pretty intrigued that it played at Cannes and was the Swedish entery for the Academy Awards as best foreign movie!

First of all, the filming, cinematography and scenery is perfect and very beautiful! Along with the great soundtrack! The environment fits perfectly for the film and the atmosphere!

Storytelling is very good and its directed very well!

Helena Bergström makes a great performence aswell Rikard Wolff

Definitely a Swedish gem! Maybe not for everyone, bur certainly a great and intense, deep drama that i really recommend you to watch! Definitely a big part of Swedish film history! A Swedish classic!

In "House of Angels", a staid, bucolic Swedish village is all abuzz when a lovely and vivacious young woman comes to town to claim the estate of her late grandfather. A charming, warmhearted, and fun little romp which is not so much a story as it is a study of human nature, the film seems to delight in evincing the community's eccentricities as it reverberates like jiggling Jello with the disruptive influence of its latest resident. "House...." should be an enjoyable watch for more mature viewers, especially females, into foreign flicks and people watching. (B-)

Aenglagård is me and my wifes all time swedish favourite movie. it tells the story about a woman touring around europe and the u.s. with her boyfriend and their cabaret group, af all kinds and genders. one day she get the message that she has inherited a house far away from the big city in the most rednecked of rednecked sweeds in the most remote southern wilderness of sweden. and here the rumours and gossip starts and develops into the most charming and loveable of loveable dramacomedies.

we've seen this movie and its sequel at least 13 times,always together in the sofa, and everytime the tears flow near the end. its a piece of wizardry thinks the grumpy old man.highly recommended

Colin Nutley has a way of finding what truly is Sweden where Swedes themselves would search for such clarity. Fanny and Zak are great characters, come to an isolated village out in the Swedish "landsbygden" and Nutley exposes Sweden through the juxtaposition of two conflicting life styles. There are scenic shots in this movie which make any lover of Sweden sigh with bliss. Those that claim that this is the Englishman's finest movie are probably right - it's a true classic.
