Trailer:Let The Right One In 2008
Genre: Drama, Horror, Romance, Thriller, Drama
Release: 2008
Director: Tomas Alfredson
Actors: Kare Hedebrant, Lina Leandersson, Per Ragnar, Henrik Dahl
"Let the Right One In" is, at its heart, a sweet coming-of-age story which is so unique and different that it simply defies categorization. In this Swedish film, adapted from John Ajvide Lindqvist?s bestselling book, director Tomas Alfredson dares to mix pleasure and pain in a way that is both horrifying and tender.
"Let the Right One In" has a storyline which, although it reveals some secrets early on, is best left as a surprise. So this will necessarily be one of those rare reviews in which the less said about the plot the better. 12-year-olds Oskar (Kare Hedebrant) and Eli (Lina Leandersson) meet one snowy afternoon at a jungle gym in the courtyard of Oskar?s housing complex outside Stockholm. Their young, tender attraction for each other is apparent right from the start and we think we know where their relationship is headed. But there is a deep dark secret to be discovered here and when it?s revealed the audience is both repulsed and curiously fascinated at the same time, in a similar fashion as when yellow crime scene tape brings us closer rather than warning us away.
