Nattrikken

After a party a woman takes a tram on a cold night. This is a solid interesting foreign short its fair that others gave a 7! I don't understand why a character thought he was laughed at he wasn't and he seems mean about a wig. This isn't like the other shorts and im surprised this was nominated its weird, harsh, and is well acted that's for sure! Cute how a little person takes over a tram and learns fast how drive it that is impressive. It's wonderful how the main woman helps someone in need from bullying that's probably why this got praise but I think its the least good shorts, nice for what it is though.

Damn my review for this got hate it is pretty good short just a bit odd.

It's as if the filmmakers decided to put as many "important discriminations" into a film while not being able to relate to the issues at all. Very moronic and simple minded and it's obvious that people who like this don't get how simple minded it is. Made for people who enjoy films that spell everything out for you. Sorry but this is the truth. Evil, helplessly ugly and filled with fake ideological sympathy.

I really hate these Oscar Shorts that take very big, important real life issues and render them to vapid, obvious and artless message-films but made in such a way where everything is spelled out for you. I freaking hated this. God I hate the Oscars!

Up in Trondheim at the end of the tram line, Sigrid Kandal Husjord asks the driver if she can sit in the bus, it being a cold night above the Arctic Circle. He says no. So while he goes into the closed station, she discovers how easy it is to drive one of those things. It's not so easy to deal with passengers.

It's a sly little comedy that keeps switching issues, from the details of which button to push to stop the windshield wipers, to how to deal with a drunk and his pals tormenting a cross dresser. I didn't have time to grow tired of any of the subplots before the next one began. That pacing is something that more film makers should strive for.

This story is absolutely great! So many different emotions and topics are covered in this lovely little short film. I can't even believe since seeing it that it was a mere 15 minutes because of how much was packed in this wondrous creation.

Suspense, drama, comedy all of it is covered.

Please check it out! And enjoy!!!

I watched this as part of an overall show featuring Oscar nominated shorts and this was definitely the #1 stand out of the 5 shirts I saw and most of the group I was with agreed.

We need more of this type of film.

I do not want to give any spoilers, just know this will be worth your short while! :) Summary: One of the Best Shorts I've Seen!

What an entertaining short film! Perfectly acted by Sigrid Kandal Husjord, who I would love to see in more stuff.

It nicely straddles the genres of comedy (particularly at the start - - the random pressing of those buttons!) and drama, with some realistic and unsettling scenes of discrimination adding a bit of unexpected grit to the piece. The finale as well - even though you can gleefully see it coming - is gloriously satisfying.

It is unusual for me to enjoy a short film (just 15 minutes) so much. But I really did! Carve out 15 minutes to watch this one.
