About Me

CURRENT MISSION

"Mission…? Seriously…?"

ABOUT ME

Post-college graduate with cinema as a major. These days I screen movies for a living. I share a small flat with my younger brother Morten. We like to see our apartment as a friendly place with room for everyone. The days in our Copenhagen-crip is spent drinking coffee, reading, good conversations and with as many goofy laughs as possible. A record is usually always playing from one of the two rooms.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music --- Music for a lot of different moods: RUSH - always RUSH - John Coltrane, Miles Davis or Eluvium for a mellow evening; Electric Wizard, High on Fire, Black Sabbath or Earthless for a crazy night on the rampage; Porcupine Tree for no day in particular (any day). Neil Young, Townes Van Zandt, Blaze Foley, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Tom Waits, Tim Buckley, Linda and Richard Thompson or Nick Drake when I am in the mood for heart and words; The Ramones or hard pumping Tresor style techno when I want to dance.

Movies --- Polanski. Trier. Ford. Bergman. Kubrick. Petzold. Antonioni. Argento. Romero. Hitchcock. Godard. Ashby. Scorsese. Tarkovsky. Allen. Lang. Truffaut. Wenders. Peckinpah. Hopper. Reed. Dreyer. Swankmajer. Teshigahara. Kurosawa. Kazan. Siodmark. Coppola. Maddin. Tarr. Korine. Welles. Lynch. Jarmusch. Herzog. De Sica. Fellini. Huston. Hawks. Kiarostami. Malle. Wiseman. Carpenter. Craven. Bava. Jonas Mekas. Stan Brakhage.

Books --- I will eagerly digest every word by Bukowski and Auster. Bolaño. Hesse. The noir writings of both Raymond Chandler and Jim Thompson. J.D. Salinger is essentiel. Mayakovsky. The melancholy of Siri Hustvedt is usually strong. Dan Turéll. The Beats. Books about movies. Alan Moore. Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso. Cormac McCarthy. Céline. Cortázar. Houellebecqu. Rasmus Graff.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once saw seven films in one day in the cinema. The last one of the day was "Sunshine" and it blew my mind.

It's only fair to say that I will remember something even more amazing soon.
