Heartbreak Hotel, Swedish, Director/Screenplay: Colin Nutley. World Cinema Showcase, Wellington, New Zealand
“Heartbreak Hotel” is the Swedish version of “Thelma and Louise,” except there is no rape, no murder, no crime sprees, no cops, no double suicide, and no (unknown-then) Brad Pitt. So, what is the connection? It’s a movie with two smart, sexy and funny 40+ women as the protagonists, but not a chic flick (not that that title makes any sense to describe women’s point of view in a film.) It is a radical film though because there is no nudity, no sex, no violence and the men look like buffoons. Read more and see great pic:
