1
So, hey Mats, this is Philip from Switzerland.
2
How are you?
3
I'm Philip.
4
I like your backdrop.
5
Some interesting people.
6
Thank you so much.
7
So there is a guy you probably know pretty much.
8
This one here.
9
Oh, he's up there.
10
Dental spot.
11
I like it.
12
Yeah.
13
So how are you?
14
Are you at your home?
15
Are you in Denmark or where are you?
16
I'm in Spain. In Spain?
17
Oh great, you live in Spain?
18
No, I have a little house there.
19
So beautiful weather in Spain I can say.
20
Great, great.
21
So let's talk about your latest movie, Writers of Justice.
22
We talk about after a rail accident, math genius Otto does not want to believe in a coincidence.
23
He's doing research with two buddies.
24
The three contact one of the victim families with his theory.
25
As a result, your character soldier Marcus and his daughter Matilda are drawn into a campaign of revenge.
26
So what do you like the most about this crazy story?
27
Yeah, that is one way to pitch it, of course.
28
The pitch itself, I would have to read it.
29
But knowing the way that Anders Thomas, the director, is addressing these topics, I love everything about it because he has a very unique style.
30
It's dark, dark humor.
31
It's very poetic and it's also insane.
32
And this time he's morphed it in with, let's say, contemporary realistic drama as well.
33
So there's a lot to love in here here.
34
Yeah, the character of my character is a man who's incapable of helping his daughter through this period
35
because he's incapable of helping himself.
36
He's got PTSD.
37
He has got very little tools to solve problems.
38
There's only one way he knows to solve problems and that is to let it go.
39
She's dead.
40
We are moving on.
41
Then they come and visit him and tells him it's not a coincidence.
42
And then obviously all hell breaks loose.
43
I love the whole thing.
44
I also love the the character.
45
I love the fact that he's got cracks.
46
We know that he will explode or he will implode eventually.
47
So there was a lot of themes going on in the film that I enjoyed.
48
Okay, so the movie is also about friendship.
49
Do you believe it's possible you have a real deep friendship
50
with a completely other person with a completely other background in real life?
51
Absolutely.
52
You don't only see it in the human world, you see it in the animal world sometimes.
53
It's just that if you're a lost enough soul and you feel alone enough, there is a family for you out there.
54
It might be a crazy family, but there is one.
55
And that is one of the topics of Anders Thomas Jensen always.
56
He believes that there is a spot in the sunlight for you, no matter who you are.
57
Your character Marcus is always so serious and focused.
58
Didn't you have to laugh at the other characters sometimes because they're hilarious funny?
59
No, I'm actually very good at not laughing in situations.
60
I try to take the situation serious but it was quite frustrating
61
because normally I am the rhetorically insane character who's saying the most insane things
62
and this time I was not so i was a little jealous sometimes
63
because i could see they were having fun
64
and i was just feeding them the ball but
65
that was my character
66
and luckily i have i have some interesting stuff going on as well for him
67
and he is insane in a different way so so that comes across
68
okay okay so the the that film was very successful in denmark did you have any
69
Do you have any reaction from the public or from your fans so far?
70
I wasn't home when we opened it, actually.
71
I was away.
72
I know that the people me liked it uh and
73
and the people who didn't like it didn't write me
74
so uh so i but it was a massive success that's true
75
and and then it was shut down because of the covet
76
and we will take it up again and
77
and hopefully there'll be more people who can come
78
and watch it um it's a very good reaction
79
because as i said he has cloned his his normal insane universe with something realistic as well
80
and it was a challenge and
81
and something we had to address how to build the bridge
82
and i think he achieved it masterfully
83
and that's one of the reasons why the film is coming across like it is okay
84
so my time is almost up what what should the audience
85
take away from the film what's your hope there's a lot of messages in there.
86
Obviously, it's about faith or the lack of faith.
87
Is everything just random or is there a reason why we're here?
88
But in general, I think it doesn't matter who you are and what you are dealing with in your life.
89
There is a spot in the sunlight for you as well.
90
Just have to look for it.
91
Matt, thank you so much.
92
Congratulations to the movie and all the best for you.
93
Thank you.
94
Thank you so much.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
