A Scandinavian Viking Crusades Epic? Check out their Cannes Reel!!!

Hey folks, Harry here... I don't know about you, but I'd love a great Scandanavian Viking film. And I have to say this trailer reel looks incredibly good. Here ya go...

Don't know if this is any news outside Norway and Sweden, but one film I'm really looking forward to now is "Arn - The Temple Knight" (loosely translated). It's a sweedish/scandinavian flick about some Norse hardasses joining the crusades in Jerusalem... It's the biggest production ever in Scandinavia, clocking in at over 30 mill $. Not much in Hollywood, but sure as shit a lot in Scandinavia. The average film here has, I don’t know, a budget of max 2 mill $. So check out this sweet ass promo reel from Cannes... Looks a bit like Kingdom of Heaven in Swedish, but I think this looks pretty fuckin awesome. CLICK HERE TO CHECK IT OUT!!! Arn – The Temple Knight is first of two films, based on three novels by Jan Guillou. The films directed by Hans Gunnarsson, shot in Sweden, Morocco and England) and got people like Stellan Skarsgård (Ol’ Bootstrap Bill), Sofia Helin, Joakim Nätterqvist and Anders Baasmo Christiansen in the leads. Cheers, Epleterte!
