Den Skaldede Frisør (The Bald Hairdresser) / Love Is All You Need (2012 Susanne Bier)

Crap UK release name. Trine Dyrholm is delightful as a truly beautiful and good person who attracts lonely widower Pierce Brosnan, who is himself plagued by the unwanted attentions of his dead wife's sister (Paprika Steen). Whilst this is going on, Trine's daughter (Molly Blixt Egelind) and Pierce's son (Sebastian Jessen) try to get married. Meanwhile Trine's husband Kim Bodnia (from the Bridge) is a shit. Susane and Anders Thomas Jensen (Wilbur Wants to Kill Himself, In China They Eat Dogs, In a Better World and the new The Dark Tower) wrote it.

Trine's the star of Nico, 1988, The Legacy (three seasons), many things, as well as in Bier's 2010 In a Better World (aka Hævnen = Revenge).

Filmed in and around Sant'Angelo Salerno and Sorrento.
