It’s extra of everything when Jonas Gardell takes his blockbuster Livet \u00e4r en schlager to Cirkus. Helen Sj\u00f6holm and Peter J\u00f6back in the main roles (…)<\/p>\n

The movie, directed by Susanne Bier in 2000, became a success, but now Jonas Gardell asks us forget it. He has rewritten the story of the pop crazy Mona (Helen Sj\u00f6holm) who submits a song for the Swedish Eurovision Song Contest which is actually written by cerebral palsy guy David (Jonas Helgesson) whom she is a personal assistant for (…)<\/p>\n

Helen Sj\u00f6holm is outstanding in her demanding role where she is on stage virtually the whole time. She not only has to nail the high tunes, but also act in long spoken sections. Not surprisingly she manages everything superbly. The same applies to Peter J\u00f6back in the role of transvestite Candy Darling, there is presence in every scene. Johan Glans is perfect as Mona’s unemployed Bosse (…)<\/p>\n

Livet \u00e4r en schlager is also a josh with celebrity obsession. Therefore the experience becomes a little strange when the celebrities who are joked about on stage – are sitting in the salon, especially invited. Not many people in the front rows had paid their tickets at the premiere. Many thousands will, however, do just that until December 21 – quite the right thing to do.<\/p>\n
