Product Description
The Other Side of Sunday
Description
The actual translation of this Oscar-nominated Norwegian film's original title, Sonntagsengel, is "Sunday Angels," which comes close to reflecting the state of innocence and grace from which the young heroine, Maria, attempts to penetrate adult mysteries in defiance of her father, a priest. The story is set in 1959, and Maria is unhappily lagging behind the rock & roll rebellion of her peers. Her father is severe and arbitrary in his judgments of what's best for her, her mother is in and out of a hospital, and her Sundays are spent in church, allegedly hanging on the old man's every word despite her ever-clarifying atheism. One way out: Find an ally as well as a cautionary figure in a lovely but miserable church servant who wishes she were as free as her true spirit. Directed by Berit Nesheim, the film is most vital during Maria's moments of unspoken yearning and accelerated confidence, giving us a palpable sense of a girl's inner life metamorphosing into womanhood. The rest--family scenes concocted to underscore Dad's own emotional conflicts and tyranny--are much more wooden. --Tom Keogh

5 of 5 stars  Maria Theisen is a Norwegian princess
Friday, January 07, 2005
The story was nice, not spectacular, but because of the pretty Norske girl, I give this movie a 5 star rating. Scandinavian films with Scandinavian heroines are the best!

5 of 5 stars  A great film with Maria Theisen looking beautiful.
Monday, October 14, 2002
The movie is fantastic and all about church. Marie Theisen plays
a tremendous role and looks really beautiful as well. Those eyes
of hers are so innocent looking. I would like to see her in more
films today. The other children in the movie do a great job also. Especially the cheeky little girl.

Marie Theisen deserves to have more websites about her. More
pictures and information. I would like to download a picture of
Maria Theisen for my desktop. A very pretty actress of Norway.

3 of 5 stars  good movie, bad DVD
Wednesday, June 26, 2002
This is the second Fox Lorber DVD that I've bought, and both are horrible transfers. The entire movie looks dark, especially compared to the version I saw on DBS, and, if you freeze at any point, the edges of images have ghost images (no pull-down technology?). This is a nice, thoughtful film that deserves better.

5 of 5 stars  A wonderful movie!
Thursday, September 28, 2000
This was an incredibly touching video about a girl trying to live how she wants while being smothered by her family's values. It's an intelligent movie, and done extremely well. It is well worth the money for the DVD!

I'm not going to summarize this movie, because that's been done, but suffice it to say that if you enjoy dramas, and movies that are based on great plot and charechters, and not millions of dollars in special effects, you will love this movie.
