Norwegian films draw full houses
A large proportion of the cinemagoers’ enthusiasm can be traced back to Norwegian film. In October, more than half of all cinema tickets were sold to Norwegian productions.
By far the biggest audience draw is the blockbuster film “Blücher”, which with its 305,269 tickets sold is the most watched Norwegian film so far this year. Lead actor Bjørn Sundquist is brilliant and in itself a very good reason to see the film, and do it yourself a favor… Watch it in theaters.
