So you're from Wallander!town?! Awwww, I looooove the Wallander films (and books). Not just the new ones with Branagh, but the old ones as well. I haven't been to Sweden yet, but it's definitely on my "countries to visit" list. Last year I thought about taking Swedish lessons, but so far I haven't started. I like the sound of the Scandinavian languages
( ... )
WHEN you come, I'll drag you around everywhere! I know this place every bit as well as Robin knows Sherwood. :-D Where in Germany do you live?
I agree with you on dubbing, that's bad. :-( It should be banned!
Oh, so you are a Wallander fan! Sit down and I'll tell you something that will awe you. I used to live opposite the house on Mariastreet that was filmed as Wallanders flat. Yup, it's true. Had to point it out to tourists all the time. :-D
You actually considered studying Swedish!? Now I'm impressed!!! And thank you for reminding me: Russian and Italian is a given!
I live near Dortmund, Westfalia. That's in the north-western part of Germany. So no, I don't wear a Dirndl and I can't yodel either *g*.
The mean thing about dubbing is, that you just don't get the real thing. The first time I saw Richard in N&S, he was dubbed. Just imagine: Richard without his chocolate voice! O.O So I definitely agree with you - dubbing should be banned!
Mariagatan?!? Wow, that's cool!! I used to watch the Wallander series with Krister Henriksson and I have to admit that I had a soft spot for the guy who played Stefan Lindman. I was devastated when his character died. Dunno, I seem to have a thing for Swedish crime stories in general. I do like Håkan Nesser and the next book(s) on my reading list is the Stieg Larsson trilogy.
Ystad sightseeing sounds great, btw! So should I visit Sweden one day, I'd be more than happy to be "dragged around" by you ;-). Same goes for you of course, should you visit Germany ...
North-west, that's not far! *waves* I knew an Austrian girl once, she refused to admit to ever having worn a Dirndl but no one believed her! :-D
Stefan Lindman was played by Ola Rapace, he's good! He's married to Noomi Rapace who plays Lisbeth Salander in the filmed Stieg Larsson trilogy. You'll love that read, I'm warning you. ;-) Come back and rae afterwards, I'll be here to listen. :-D
The sad thing is that Johanna Sällström, who played Linda Wallander, did die, for real. She was an incredibly fine and humble human being, I met her a few time through work. :-(
I had a thing for Alan Rickman and the Sense and Sensibility DVD had German dubbing as an option. I tried to listen to the German tenor dubbing AR just for fun... It was a short lived attempt. ;-)
So we can both be prepared for some amusing "dragging-around", LOL!
