Her character in the movie is a woman living in a very violent marriage. The man that looked like he didn’t like her was her husband and he is very controlling. He wouldn’t allow her to sing and be a part of the choir and this is the first time she performs and everyone hears her sing. The movie “Så som i himmelen” (as it is in heaven English title) is a really great Swedish movie.
@@Cedisdead Yes I know, but that's in Rederiet. I forgot his characters name in this movie. Pet Morberg, actor and a good chef with his own cooking style.
The guy behind her to the right is the tragically late Michael Nyqvist from movies like John Wick and Mission Impossible. A terrific actor that sadly died far to young.
It’s a “feel good” movie. It deals with bullying, domestic abuse, self-confidence and loving yourself for who you are. I just tear up thinking about it. I love this movie. It was nominated for an Oscar in the “foreign language” category but didn’t win.
Its about domestic violence and breaking free from your abuser. I would really recommend you to look it up. When you watch the movie, you can't hear this without bursting into tears. This is so emotional! Even now almost 20 years later I can't hear the first 2 notes without bawling my eyes out..
Hello again! Helen plays the wife of an abusing husband (the guy you thought was here ex). The song is written for Gabriella by the church musician who noticises her struggle (she is a member of the church choir) and it is about finding youself after abuse.
I love this movie! The guy that doesnt look to happy is actually her husband, whos a domestic abuser. He doesn't like her singing in the choir at all, wich explains the grumpy face. Later in the movie she leaves him. I really recommend to see this movie
(Movie context:) The lady singing is in a horrific, abusive relationship with the dude standing in the back with brown hair. Her spirit is completley broken & she joins a church-choir were the new guy leading the choir sees her potential & inner voice, so he writes her this song for her to sing in front of people.
The movie has now been made into a musical: th-cam.com/video/fcROXMvwPZc/w-d-xo.html and here is a Corona Zoom version of another song from the stage musical: th-cam.com/video/fkj8OBPck8o/w-d-xo.html
0:31 Of course you didn't say that right...🙃 Swedish pronunciation is *_nothing_* like English, nothing, at all (despite many similarities between the languages, in history, syntax, and vocabulary).
@@TeacherPaulReacts Haha! It was pretty good though, for a total foreigner. The only romance language speakes that sometimes comes close (without practice) are Italians, for some reason. Their melody is a little similar, the sound of many vowels and consonants too.
I didn't watch it flat, I saw it in full screen 🤔 The idea of this channel is that my subscribers send me videos for me to react to it for the first time, they like to share their favourite videos

Wow, that's great!

A Swedish actor that has been in many Swedish movies. He was truly great 💯

This song has inspired many, many Swedish people. Best regards from Norway
And obviously at least one Norwegian too 😊
When I was in a dark place long time ago this song made me reconsider my life to the better 💯 absolutely beautiful!

Cant view this scene without crying, so incredibly emotional
We have a great singer named Albin Lee Meldau in Sweden. I suggest that you listen to his song Josefin.
I love this movie!

I really recommend to see this movie
This movie is a tear-jerker, the English title is As it is in heaven and I can really recommend it, it's probably out on internet somewhere
Besides Jussi Björling this has to be the best performance ever by a Swede.
You must watch this movie. One of my favourites. As it is in heaven.
The man you say don’t like her is her violent husband in this movie ”så som i himmelen”

You need to react to Same old lang syne by the Backstreet boys from their new album A very Backstreet Christmas.
Lev livet så det kjennes :) Have a good life you all :)

Hello, could you react to the top 10 places to visit in France by Ryan Shirley ?
This is fair video
:)
Sorry but so meaningless to react to a song from a movie and not knowing what the movie is about. And the movie insert is compressed and flatened.

The film is dreadful, but the song is great.
