Pour l'éternité

Funny, tragic, moving scenes unfold in Andersson’s meticulously crafted frames.

...one feels grateful overall for Andersson’s vision and visions.

...another of Andersson’s superb anthologies of the human condition...

...delicious, odd and utterly unlike anything else in competition; a film that makes the humdrum seem unique and the banal otherworldly.

In its blend of mordant wit and philosophy, it's a little like a cinematic version of Gary Larson's 'The Far Side' comic strip, with fewer talking cows.

My take on “Endlessness” is that he’s illustrating the banality of existence and how it distracts us from perhaps appreciating life on its own terms.

Roy Anderssons konstnärliga credo; det mirakulösa i tillvaron finns lite överallt – bara man hinner titta.

Andersson er i sit mere afdæmpede, håbefulde og poetiske hjørne – uden at gå på kompromis med sin sylespidse samfundsdiagnostik.
