This week’s pick: The English rose CALENDAR GIRLS G2

InOutThe CPH Post Entertainment Guide | 28 Sep - 4 Oct 2012

G2 28 September - 4 October 2012InOut | THE CPH POST ENTERTAINMENT GUIDE

Calendar Girls Krudttønden, Serridslevvej 2, Cph Ø; starts Wed, ends Oct 13, performances Oct 3-7 and Oct 9-13, weekdays 19:30, Sat & Sun 17:00; tickets 140kr, www.ctcircle.dk

“EVERY STAGE of growth has its own beauty, but the last phase is always the most glorious,” is true of both � owers and of women, as Copenha-gen � eatre Circle sets out to prove in their au-tumn production of Tim Firth’s Calendar Girls.

Based on the 2003 feature � lm script of the same name, the play follows a group of Yorkshire women who pose nude for a “Pirelli-type” cal-endar in an e� ort to raise money for leukaemia. And ‘women’, for once, does not refer to a group of 20 to 26-year-olds (who may or may not re-semble teenagers), but real women, this time ranging between the ages of 29 and 74.

CTC’s own six gorgeous Calendar Girls � nd the scene in which they shoot the calendar – oth-erwise known as ‘the fabulous concealment’ – to be an important, if not challenging experience that is central to the message of the play.

“We want to show that women are vibrant and beautiful at any age, but it’s still a di� cult thing to do. It’s putting yourself far out of your comfort zone,” confesses Polly, who at 29, is the youngest of the Calendar Girls and new to both Denmark and acting.

“I’ve heard of women who refuse to go to the doctor because they’re embarrassed about their bodies,” adds Tina, a fellow Calendar Girl, who is a trained stage manager and the only American in the cast. “We need to dare to get in touch with ourselves and see that we are beautiful just as we are – this play really expresses that.”

It’s standard procedure in Hollywood to take a successful play and adapt it for the screen, but the reverse is less common: to make a play based on a � lm.

“I was apprehensive at � rst. I mean, a play based on a � lm?!” con� des Vanessa, one of the few professionally trained actors among the cast, who currently resides in Malmö and takes the train over for daily rehearsals. “But the script is actu-ally better; it’s so much funnier! Each character is more developed. � ere’s someone every woman can relate to.”

� e 2003 feature � lm, which was directed by Nigel Cole and starred Helen Mirren and Julie Walters, was based on real events. A Yorkshire sec-tor of the Women’s Institute started the calendar, initially to raise money to buy a couch for the waiting room of the local hospital, where one of the member’s husbands was receiving treatment for non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.

“Everybody’s lives are touched by cancer. My father had prostrate cancer and my friend had breast cancer,” says Debbie, who plays Marie, the head of the WI in the play. “We’ve all lost some-one or been a� ected somehow.”

Every Calendar Girls performance, whether done by an amateur or professional theatre group, continues to contribute towards the � ght against cancer, with 50 percent of the royalties going to-wards cancer research. On top of this, the CTC has decided to donate a portion of its pro� ts from this production to Rigshospitalet.

Maureen, a CTC veteran since ’73, has been living in Denmark for 40 years and celebrates her 74th birthday only a few weeks before the pre-miere. For her, the Copenhagen � eatre Circle has played a major role in her life in Denmark.

And with rehearsal hours ranging from ten to 20 hours a week, everyone involved � nds themselves becoming part of the CTC family.

“We’re all foreigners, but we’re here for the long-term. Most of us speak Danish and many have Danish partners,” says the jolly French as-sistant director Sylvain. “But we spend so much time together that the cast becomes something like a family – we’ve been spending more time with each other than our real families.”

And although there are many with profes-sional stage training like Tina and Vanessa, they are joined by a host of other theatre lovers from a multitude of occupations.

“We all have full-time jobs!” continues Syl-vain. “I’m an engineer, we have someone who works at a law � rm, within photography and in-surance … everything really!”

� e cast is led by Reumert Award-winning director Barry McKenna, who has the challenging task of bringing a Yorkshire village to life within an Østerport theatre. Sylvain points to the relatively small size of the theatre, with only 100 seats, to help create the intimate village setting, but that it is his talented actors that do the real heavy lifting.

“Our cast is so good that you immediately feel as though you are there, in Yorkshire. I feel that way every rehearsal, no matter where we are. Even a Gentofte basement feels like northern England once we’ve started rehearsing!”

So if you fancy a dose of Britain during this rainy Copenhagen autumn, a good laugh or may-be just a peek at one of the lovely calendar girls, then make sure you book your ticket and add this show to your calendar.

SYMPTOMS of cancer are like horoscopes. You have a persis-tent cough/you’re going to meet a mysterious stranger; you su� er occasional dizziness/somebody is going to make an announcement; some mornings, you struggle to make it out of bed/you’re going to die. It always sounds so feasible.

(By the way, this might be a good opportunity to reply to the Indian astrologer who keeps on emailing me about writing a col-umn. Please desist – I’ve resisted replying, presuming you would already know my answer, but enough is enough.)

Cancer, getting it and dying from it, is something the Danes do really well (see page 3 of the newspaper), which might explain why the CTC has chosen Calen-dar Girls (see G2) as its latest pro-duction – either that or it was the chance to see six gorgeous women get their kit o� for a good cause, which will involve a percentage of the proceeds being donated to Rigshospitalet.

Posing nude to celebrate life: it’s not a bad way to be remem-bered, is it? � e performance dance piece Traces (see G3) looks at this very issue: what we leave behind. In the performers’ case, it’s an unresolved career in the circus as we are treated to some pretty spectacular acrobatics.

Could be worse: history might remember you as the Horse Whisperer (see G18 for a review of Buck), which sounds a bit creepy, like he’s probably got a cousin (who he probably mar-ried) called the Horse Fiddler. Couldn’t he have chosen a cooler animal? Like a rhino. � e Rhino Whisperer: that’s a � lm I’d pay good money to see.

Elsewhere, our health con-tinues to be the dominant theme this week – particularly for men. Reading across from page G8 to G9, they can � rst of all discover the cause of the autumnal angst eating away inside them at this time of year, and then switch over for two cures: shopping to restore your hygge and visiting the Healthy Lifestyle Fair.

Not sure there will be any handy tips for avoiding the enig-ma that is the Big C. When you weigh up all the health advice out there, you’re probably no worse o� consulting your horo-scope.

G328 September - 4 October 2012 InOut | THE CPH POST ENTERTAINMENT GUIDETHIS WEEK

I’VE ALWAYS enjoyed the cir-cus: the daredevil acrobatics, the sheer physicality of the hu-man body, performers pushing themselves to their limits.

But as much as my inner child is enthralled by the per-formance, I can’t help but feel one step removed from the show. A sense of distance exists between the audience and the performers that says ‘here’s us and there’s you’. It’s as if we’re sharing di� ering worlds – not entering into the same one to-gether.

� is is the exact feeling that co-director Gypsy Snider sought to eradicate when creat-ing the high risk acrobatic show Traces.

Created in 2002 in Mon-treal by a company called Les 7 doigts de la main (the 7 � ngers of the hand), the aim was to bring the circus genre to a hu-man scale.

“We wanted audiences to get to know the artists and have a direct human relationship with them, so when they do the

crazy stu� , you feel like it could be you or your neighbour,” says Snider.

Set in a make-shift shelter, Traces follows � ve characters as they set to live out what they believe to be their � nal mo-ments in the face of imminent catastrophe. Confronting this impeding disaster, they embark on a mission to leave their mark on the world, their ‘traces’, through music, songs, dance and hazardous acrobatics.

It’s this pressure of time and the idea that the performers’ lives are being threatened that creates an electric yet intimate atmosphere, says Snider.

“� e concept means you have these amazingly powerful artists on stage giving it every-thing they have from a genuine place in their hearts as if it really is their last moment on Earth.”

While the show was con-structed with a certain theme in mind, the choreography evolved from an improvisational process orchestrated by the performers themselves.

“� is creates an authentic-ity in the artists’ movements, which is something audiences can feel even though the show was made six years ago,” says Snider.

While Snider believes the circus genre always has the ca-pacity to impress, Traces exudes a human element that leaves au-diences emotionally spent. � is

Lose yourself in the traces

stems from the rollercoaster of emotions the artists evoke from their seemingly precarious acro-batics.

“It inspires and electri� es people and you get that feeling of ‘are they actually going to make it?’” say Snider.

For those who’ve experi-

enced Traces, it’s well know that the unbridled energy of the per-formers leaves them feeling like it is a one-o� - that the show was created especially for them for that exact night.

At the end of 2011, Traces had been presented over 1,200 times in nearly 20 countries.

� is, however, is their � rst time in Copenhagen where their show is being hotly anticipated.

Snider says she’s incredibly proud that, in spite of the sim-plicity of the show, it continues to be an incredibly touching ex-perience.

“I like to think of it as like

an explosive expression of hu-manity as if it really was about to be the end of the world.”

At the heart of the perfor-mance, Traces celebrates � ve individuals, their particular tal-ents, their bond and their risk taking ventures.

CAN YOU HAVE your cake and

eat it too? Conventional wisdom

says no, but with their � rst budg-

et plan since the shift of power,

the new Socialdemokraterne-Radikale-

Socialistisk Folkeparti (SRSF) coalition

appear to be giving it a shot.

Many of the elements of the new

budget – which is expected to be re-

leased in its entirety on � ursday – will

increase state spending at a time when

the budget de� cit has increased. But

where the money would come from re-

mained a mystery.A number of the new budget items

reinstate spending cuts made by the pre-

vious Venstre-Konservative (VK) govern-

ment. Here are a few of the major points:

Families: VK limited the state’s

monthly child support handouts (bør-

necheck) to 35,000 kroner per fam-

ily. � at limit has now been abolished,

meaning that many families will get

larger child bene� ts. � e government

will also pay for fertility treatments and

voluntary sterilisations.Welfare: VK and Dansk Folkeparti

(DF) introduced specialised welfare pro-

grammes that reduced the cash bene� ts

for new immigrants. � ose programmes

have now been eliminated and going

forward all residents in need of state

support will receive the same welfare

bene� ts. Higher education and research:

Universities will get an extra one billion

kroner over two years to cover costs as-

sociated with a predicted increase in

the number of students. Moreover, stu-

dents will no longer pay administrative

fees, and prospective Master’s students

will have prerequisite course tuitions

paid. � e government will also fund

1,500 more state-supported internship

positions.Infrastructure and job creation:

Some 17.5 billion kroner will be in-

vested over two years in infrastructure

projects, such as a new rail line between

Copenhagen and Ringsted, a project to

widen the Holbæk motorway, erosion

protection e� orts along Jutland’s west

coast, and renovations to public hous-

ing. Prime minister Helle � orning-

Schmidt has said that these ‘kickstart’

projects will create 20,000 new jobs

from 2012-2013. � e Danish Construc-

tion Association predicts 10,000.

Tax break: � e unpopular ‘mul-

timedia tax’ introduced by VK will be

abolished, saving some 525,000 Danes

with business laptops and mobile

phones 3,000 kroner per year.

Not everyone, however, can look for-

ward to a cash infusion. Smokers and junk

food lovers will be taxed higher on their

vices, while international corporations

will also see higher tax bills. SRSF plans

to raise revenue by closing a number of

tax loopholes going back nearly 20 years

that allowed international corporations

in Denmark to escape paying corporate

taxes (see more on page 15).

All told, the spending increases in the

new budget are not as big as the minister

of the economy and interior, Margrethe

Vestager (R), would like. She noted that

VK under-reported the de� cit for 2012,

making it imprudent to spend more. But

Denmark will still meet the EU’s � nan-

cial responsibility benchmarks, despite

the larger de� cit, she added.

A new budget to ‘kickstart’ the economy

SRSF’s � rst budget will spend 17.5 billion

kroner on infrastructure and abolish

previous taxes and restrictions

Sleepy SunLoppen, Christiania Sunday 21:00 100kr, www.billetlugen.dk

IT’S FAIR to say that US band Sleepy Sun have led the way in the recent psychedelic revival. Playing to the strengths of this

genre, while maintaining some com-mercial appeal, hasn’t been easy and the band has seen its fair share of transformations. Born at just the right time as the pendulum swung back in favour of 1960s sounds, Sleepy Sun are both products of this nostalgia as well as helping to move it forward.

Despite attaching themselves to the genre, Sleepy Sun are not a retro band. ey do not sound like e Grateful Dead or Jimi Hendrix and their attempts at creating soundscapes share little in common with the old masters Pink Floyd or Country Joe and the Fish. eirs is a mixture of harmonised modern pop that is both tighter and more restrained than their ‘60s forebears. While they do make e orts to sound spacious and alter-native, the music is more suited to a relaxed dinner party than a Ken Kesey acid test.

e band was formed in Santa Cruz, California in 2005. Originally playing heavier rock, they soon be-

gan to morph into what they would become with the addition of Birds Fled From Me singer Rachel Fannan. Together with guitarist and vocalist Bret Constantino, Fannan’s sugary sweet vocals helped to temper the band, leading them to a softer but more re� ned sound that culminated in their � rst release, Embrace, in 2008. While the album did receive favour-able reviews and earned them esteem amongst fellow musicians, Embrace didn’t sell as well as it should have, al-though it did lead to a host of strong supports that saw them tour for most of 2009.

In 2010, the group supported Arctic Monkeys on a sell-out tour of

the US. e experience helped shape their live performances and they be-gan to receive acclaim for the diverse and energetic nature of their shows. And in June of that year, they released Fever, which received a favourable amount of radio play, particularly in the US. e album was praised for its dynamism, at times sounding like a re� tted Smashing Pumpkins, while keeping in tune with their psychedelic ideals with songs like ‘Maria’ and the nine-minute closer ‘Sandstorm Wom-an’.

In October of 2010, Fannan left the group, citing ‘creative di erences’. e absence of her vocals has had a profound e ect on the band, leading

to a more streamed version of their music. eir latest album, Spine Hits, is perhaps more commercial than their previous releases and sees less of their rambling instrumentation and more of the classic three-minute wonders. e album has received mixed reviews and much will depend on whether you see Sleepy Sun as a psychedelic band or just a band that dabbles in psychedelia.

One thing’s for sure, they’re play-ing at the right venue. With tickets going for 100 kroner in Copenhagen’s undisputed alternative heartland, this will be one of the most authentic mu-sical experiences you’re likely to see this year.

Now that the sun has gone all sleepy on us

Theirs is a mixture of harmonised modern pop that is both tighter and more restrained than their ‘60s forebears.

Tonight is the monthly label night by the Berlin-based Ostgut Ton, which pulls in some of the German capital’s finest house and techno names. Taking the lead tonight will be the raw beats of Dett-mann – known for his distinc-tively stop-start, jagged mixes – on the back of the popularity of his show at Culture Box earlier this summer.

AnathemaLille Vega; 20:30 180krThe oddball classical musicians from Liverpool have been cat-egorised as pioneers in a pro-gressive genre of music entitled ‘melodic heavy metal’. Taking a band name that quite literally means ‘a thing to be detested or loathed’, the group obviously set out with the intention of shaking up the industry. Work-ing with the core musicality of doom metal and incorporating unlikely instrumentation – a left-field method that has gradu-ally become a trend with proteg-es such as Godspeed You Black Emperor – the band’s ninth al-bum, Weather System (2012), has once again enthralled the heavy metal world.

Thee AttacksLoppen; 21:00 100krHailing from Copenhagen, the four-bit indie-rock band are on the rise with their ambitious, buoyant, Kinks-flavoured brand of surf-rock. Catchy guitar hooks, gripping Ray Davies-tinged vocals and pervasive rhythmic backdrops highlight that the quartet have all the makings of a great indie-rock band. Having risen to regular slots at Copenhagen’s better-known venues, the group are fi-nally making strides on the Dan-ish music scene. With hits such as ‘Johnny And I’ still getting cheers, their new material will be welcomed with open arms by Loppen’s punters.

Reptile YouthPumpehuset; 22:00; 130krA lighter alternative to the synth-pounding Justice, the Danish duo made their debut on the Scandinavian circuit with ‘Speeddance’, a catchy LCD Soundsystem-like anthem that caught the eye (well, ears) of Mark Ralph (Hot Chip) and Dave M Allen (The Cure) who have gone on to produce their debut album. Taking their sun-charged beats extensively over-seas has led to the Danes making strides outside of northern Eu-rope on the back of the release of a debut record that has been lauded by Vice Magazine, the exact media the band need on-side to get a solid footing with the Scandinavian night-crawlers.

cODYLille Vega; 21:00 160krThe Copenhagen-based ambi-ent rock outfit made their break with the single ‘Comfort and Rage’ a few years back. On the fast track to stardom, their slow-evolving folk caught the imagi-nation of their Danish listeners, fast becoming a radio favourite. The release of their new record, Fractures (2012), is a demonstra-tion of what the band are capa-ble of. A neat reflection of Scan-dinavian lo-fi rock, they are part of a new wave alongside strong, similarly-minded Danish acts including Sleep Party People, Choir For Young Believers and Hymns From Nineveh. Tickets are running low, so be sure to book up in advance.

Lukas GrahamFalconer Salen; 20:00; 220krOne of the stars on the Danish festival circuit this year is Dan-ish-Irish musician Lukas Gra-ham, who like his father is a folk singer whose music has cropped up on both sides of the Atlantic. Signed to Copenhagen Records, his summery ballads have led to popularity here, with his single ‘Drunk In The Morning’ reach-ing third spot in the charts in February. Famous for making teenage girls weak at the knees with his swooning lyrics about budding relationships, romantic gestures and walks in the park, his shows, which are in English, often sell out.

Tyler WardLille Vega; 21:00; 100krUsing the internet as his plat-form, Ward’s fame shot up in the late noughties as he became something of a YouTube phe-nomenon. He is currently one of the top 20 most popular artists on the internet. His tunes don’t leave much to the imagination. The fact that he’s covered Justin Beiber’s ‘Boyfriend’ neatly sums up his ‘artistic’ integrity and aims as a pop star: chiefly to see just how many more YouTube views he can get his hands on. Making ‘real’ music doesn’t really seem to appear in Tyler’s universe.

Review

allan Mutuku-kortbæk

Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir seemed thrilled with the soaring number of Icelanders at Vega and en-gaged them in her native tongue before unleashing tracks such as the up-tempo, jovial ‘Mountain song’. An unexpected cover of ‘Skeletons’ by trendy New York garage rockers Yeah Yeah Yeahs thereafter added a fresh wave of variation to the concert, while

sing-along gems such as ‘From Finner’ got the crowd jumping.

Unsurprisingly, the highlight of the show came when the an-themic ‘Little Talks’ dropped towards the end. The song epito-mises the chamber pop sound that the band has managed to cultivate over its short but spar-kling career, and featured a brief, but perfectly timed trumpet solo that accentuated its jolly effect.

Led by the vocals of the sub-liminal Ragnar Pórhallsson and Hilarsdottir, Of Monsters and Men were sharp from the word go, playing with ear-to-ear grins and bonding with the crowd, despite the customary unrespon-siveness of Danish audiences. Nowhere was this bond more candid than at the very end of the show, as the Icelanders parted from the stage, with the dreamy, contemplative chimes and ticks of the final track ‘Yel-low Light’ ringing in the audi-ence’s ears, who by this point, were in merry spirits.

WHEN I turned up at the Of Monsters and Men concert at Store Vega on Wednesday

night, I must admit that my expectations were rather high. The chamber pop sextet have been hogging blog space lately, spurred by, among other things, their recently dropped album My Head is an Animal. If their per-formance is anything to go by, this is a band with huge poten-tial, and an amazing live act at that. We’re talking about a band that sounds strangely similar to Edward Sharpe and the Magnet-ic Zeros, fused with Mumford & Sons, and a tinge of Arcade Fire – just to complicate things.

Fellow Icelander Lay Low was at hand to provide a won-derful warm-up, playing a dex-

terous blend of powerful songs, intermeshed with snippets of witty humour. The performance was proof enough of why she’s had the honour of touring with the likes of Emiliana Torrini.

Of Monsters and Men then stepped onto the stage illumi-nated by a fiery red glow and proceeded to sweep Store Vega off its feet. Lead singer Nanna

� e season of moral education HOW DO WE survive the loss of sum-mer? From now on, and for the next eight months, the Danish media and everyday conversation is going to be saturated with one thing: the whining about the loss of summer and what it was that we did to deserve this depriva-tion of sun, nudity and freckles?

Now it’s autumn and the wheels of decay are spinning at full intensity. Everywhere you look, life is wither-ing, dying, and with it a lot of the life-a� rming phenomena designed to get mankind through his tedious hours of earthly existence.

One could mention the brightly-coloured � owers, chirping birds, the feeling of warm sand between your toes and so on, but most important of all is that spring and summer is the time when the human specimens of the de-sired sex reveal skin, throb with phero-mones and send dirty looks your way when passing in the street.

at’s the real loss; that’s what’s over now. Everywhere you look, women are covering up. It’s the end of indecent nipple exposure, tanned shoulders are no more, goodbye freckled cheeks, and inviting smiles, farewell.

‘What could be the point of this inhumanity?!’ one cries. But if we have learned just one thing from history, it is that the sky never answers. And that’s all we really want, isn’t it? An answer. Any answer.

So here is a classic answer that gets me through the day, a straw to cling to: the harsh stares, tightly-pressed lips and hidden skin of your desired public

space stranger exist to strengthen your moral education. Su� ering builds char-acter. Believe it (!) and you can make it through the next eight months without depression or suicidal tendencies - guar-anteed.

So, stop whining, start su� ering.

Ever since he was old enough to put dirt in his mouth, Erik B Duckert has been attracted to the ground level and below. � e attraction of the underground, he says, is that: “When you’re looking at a city from its gutters, you see both the faeces and the silk.” His favourite sewers are those of Copenhagen and in particular those of Nørrebro and Amager, but any place where trash is tossed and skirts are worn, he will want to rest his eyes and say his piece.

BY JESSICA O’SULLIVANSELECT SHOPPING

A new lease for life awaits you: release it!

IF THERE’S one thing everyone can do, it’s live healthier. From walking or biking in lieu of the train or bus, to drinking water instead of soda, there are small changes we can all make on a day-to-day basis to make ourselves healthier, extend our lifespan and improve our general well-being. Sometimes all that’s stopping us is not knowing exactly where or how to start.

So why not begin at the Healthy Lifestyle Fair at Øksnehallen this week-end. Denmark’s largest health fair has been held each autumn since 1986. Last year 17,000 people attended, and an-other 15-20,000 are expected to attend the fair over the course of its three days.

� e fair will host a series of talks and lectures on various health-related topics, such as recent medical devel-opments, alternative medicines and healthy lifestyle changes, and will stage 190 individual stalls, occupied by ven-dors from throughout Denmark selling an incredible assortment of products: from organic skin products and make-ups to massage oils and scented candles.

While the fair primarily appeals to and attracts women, there is undoubt-edly something for everyone – who doesn’t need to go to a talk entitled ‘Cultivate happiness for more love and better sex?’ Or how about ‘Ful­ ll your dreams and achieve your goals. Meet a world champion?’

And if you’re thinking now’s not a good time to make drastic life changes,

maybe it’s a good time for a cleansing shiatsu massage or a quick round of acupuncture? Maybe it’s a good time to snack on healthy candy, like chocolate and yoghurt covered in fruit and nuts?

Go to the fair. And, if you’re brows-ing stalls and listening to talks and real-ise that none of the health ‘craze’ is up your alley, you can easily dodge o� and grab a beer at one of several bars located nearby in Copenhagen’s meat-packing district.

TOP PICKS:

Is daylight a new wonder drug?Fri 11:00Controversial neuroscientist Milena Penkowa will deliver a talk every Co-penhagener should hear as winter fast approaches. � e lack of daylight in winter months can lead to a depression known as seasonal a� ective disorder – start ­ ghting it on Friday.

� e power of thought, the body’s physical abilities, and focusSun 14:00� is talk, delivered by Kirsten Bak Hansen, comes from a holistic per-spective of health that begins with the power the mind has over the body. How much of your health is determined by your mood? Are you thinking yourself sick? Find out on Sunday.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED:

ERS

CAN YOU HAVE your cake and

eat it too? Conventional wisdom

says no, but with their � rst budg-

et plan since the shift of power,

the new Socialdemokraterne-Radikale-

Socialistisk Folkeparti (SRSF) coalition

appear to be giving it a shot.

Many of the elements of the new

budget – which is expected to be re-

leased in its entirety on � ursday – will

increase state spending at a time when

the budget de� cit has increased. But

where the money would come from re-

mained a mystery.

A number of the new budget items

reinstate spending cuts made by the pre-

vious Venstre-Konservative (VK) govern-

ment. Here are a few of the major points:

Families: VK limited the state’s

monthly child support handouts (bør-

necheck) to 35,000 kroner per fam-

ily. � at limit has now been abolished,

meaning that many families will get

larger child bene� ts. � e government

will also pay for fertility treatments and

voluntary sterilisations.

Welfare: VK and Dansk Folkeparti

(DF) introduced specialised welfare pro-

grammes that reduced the cash bene� ts

for new immigrants. � ose programmes

have now been eliminated and going

forward all residents in need of state

support will receive the same welfare

bene� ts. Higher education and research:

Universities will get an extra one billion

kroner over two years to cover costs as-

sociated with a predicted increase in

the number of students. Moreover, stu-

dents will no longer pay administrative

fees, and prospective Master’s students

will have prerequisite course tuitions

paid. � e government will also fund

1,500 more state-supported internship

positions.Infrastructure and job creation:

Some 17.5 billion kroner will be in-

vested over two years in infrastructure

projects, such as a new rail line between

Copenhagen and Ringsted, a project to

widen the Holbæk motorway, erosion

protection e� orts along Jutland’s west

coast, and renovations to public hous-

ing. Prime minister Helle � orning-

Schmidt has said that these ‘kickstart’

projects will create 20,000 new jobs

from 2012-2013. � e Danish Construc-

tion Association predicts 10,000.

Tax break: � e unpopular ‘mul-

timedia tax’ introduced by VK will be

abolished, saving some 525,000 Danes

with business laptops and mobile

phones 3,000 kroner per year.

Not everyone, however, can look for-

ward to a cash infusion. Smokers and junk

food lovers will be taxed higher on their

vices, while international corporations

will also see higher tax bills. SRSF plans

to raise revenue by closing a number of

tax loopholes going back nearly 20 years

that allowed international corporations

in Denmark to escape paying corporate

taxes (see more on page 15).

All told, the spending increases in the

new budget are not as big as the minister

of the economy and interior, Margrethe

Vestager (R), would like. She noted that

VK under-reported the de� cit for 2012,

making it imprudent to spend more. But

Denmark will still meet the EU’s � nan-

cial responsibility benchmarks, despite

the larger de� cit, she added.

A new budget to ‘kickstart’ the economy

SRSF’s � rst budget will spend 17.5 billion

kroner on infrastructure and abolish

previous taxes and restrictions

Tucked away be-hind a hard-to-� nd door on the � rst � oor to the right of a typi-cal Copenhagen apartment, the restaurant is based around the concept of the dinner party with guests stepping into what ap-pears to be a private apartment and then being utterly spoilt by their hosts. � e monthly set menu costs 1,250kr and has a whopping ten courses, and you can tell them in advance of any food quirks you might have and they will personalise the menu for you.

I KNOW it’s root vegetable sea-son (my next favourite season after the football one), but I’m going to digress and share with you a bril-liantly simple, almost peasant reci-pe that will keep your bellies burn-ing through the darkening nights.

I � rst learned about boiling gammon at home, then later in a baptism of � re whilst living in Poland – and it’s awesome. Whilst roasting and frying produces great taste, boiling makes gammon stu-pidly tender. It also ticks boxes on the health front with a lower fat content (though of course that’s not why housewives have histori-cally put meat to piping water). � e other good thing is that you cook it in stock, so the stock � a-vours the meat and vice versa.

Gammon with cider lentils 1 medium 2kg gammon joint 1 onion1 carrot2 sticks of celery1 clove garlicBlack peppercornsCinnamon stick1 clove3 bay leaves1 litre apple juiceFOR THE LENTILS:200g puy lentils1 onionOlive oilThymeBay leaf1 litre of good quality cider

SOAK THE HAM for 24 hours to help remove as much salt as pos-sible. When ready to go, lob the gammon in a big pot with 1 onion, a carrot, 2 sticks of celery, the pep-percorns, a cinnamon stick, a clove and 2 bay leaves along with 1 litre

of cold water and 1 litre of apple juice (all apple juice will be too sweet).

Bring the broth to the boil then reduce the heat and cover with a lid to simmer for 1 hour 20 mins (or 20 mins for every 500g of meat). Keep checking to scrape any scum o� the surface of the stock.

Begin the lentils about 15 min-utes before the meat’s ready. Finely chop the onion and garlic and heat until onion has softened in a pan with some oil.

Rinse the lentils well and add them to the pan, coating with ol-ive oil. Add the thyme, bay leaf and cider, bring to the boil and turn down heat to simmer with a lid on for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Use more water if the lentils start to stick.

Finally, carefully remove the meat from the stock and let sit for 15 minutes before serving. Let the stock cool for storing.

BY SIMON COOPERFOOD BLOG

� e stock can then go on to make great soup.

� is is as hearty as hearty gets. You can decide on which sauce you serve with the dish – maybe a white parsley one, or just some of the cooking liquor, or how about some kind of sweet apple and onion a� air? You could also do a crust on the gammon – pig à la Jutland.

It’s critical to mention here that you absolutely must have the best cider you can lay your hands on. DON’T, I repeat ‘DON’T’, use Sommersby or any other cheap brands. Cooking the cider will burn o� the alcohol so you’re left with the � avour – and which would you prefer oaky apple or radioactive chewing gum?

G1328 September - 4 October 2012 InOut | THE CPH POST ENTERTAINMENT GUIDEFOOD & DRINK

SUSHI has long enjoyed a successful run as this city’s trendy food, but watch out because there’s a new Hero in town.

Hero, a Japanese street kitchen that opened in June of this year, is set to revolu-tionise what people think is trendy. Located on the ground � oor of the Fox Hotel, this stylish bar and restaurant is capturing the authenticity and atmosphere of a Japanese street kitchen.

� ey place an emphasis on simplicity, style and high quality ingredients, with He-ro’s strength lying in their unique approach to dining. � e atmosphere at Hero can be compared to an Izakaya, a down-to-earth place where locals drink sake and beer after work while enjoying food.

Every detail has been designed to create an amazing atmosphere − one that I have yet to see anywhere else in the city. Oozing sophistication and a too-cool-for-school at-titude, Hero is so much more than another stock standard Copenhagen sushi place. � ey also o� er a delicious range of snacks, salads, small dishes, meats from the grill, yakitori (skewered meats), tempura, sashimi, sides and, of course, a range of sweets.

Sipping on icy cold Kirin Ichiban beers, we began with some delicious Edamame beans that proved a winner throughout the whole evening. Wanting everyone to be chopstick heroes, we were also given a bowl of mixed nuts, soy sauce, and told to start practicing. � e owner swears this is the best way to learn.

With our chopstick skills up to par, we tucked into two of the small dishes: a per-fectly prepared Tuna Tataki with yuzu sesa-me dressing, and Scallop Kata� served with wasabi mayonnaise and pickled cucumber. Having recently tried the Scallop Kata� at what many Copenhageners would argue is the city’s best sticks and sushi restaurant, I can easily say that Hero is the winner.

Already in heaven, we moved onto the Yakitori, which is a Japanese specialty in which the meat is skewered. Served in pairs, we had the grilled shrimps served with a sake dipping shot, and the teriyaki beef with fresh ginger. � e shrimps were large and tasty and paired well with the sake shot. As for the teri-yaki beef, I was left speechless. Having tasted a lot of beef in my life, this was hands down, without a doubt, the best I’ve ever tasted. If you go to Hero for nothing else, you must go for the beef Yakitori.

Fearing it could get no better, we cau-tiously navigated towards the Duck Breast, with orange and teriyaki sauce, served with rice. My duck-adoring partner was extreme-ly impressed by its tenderness, but the rice was a bit on the dry side.

Looking to make sure we got in our daily � ve, but with a bit of a naughty twist, we tucked into the tempura vegetables. Although a bit on the salty side, they were nice enough. � e Soba noodles with hot sauce and fresh coriander leaves is a nice staple dish, as is the Green beans and pea-nuts in sesame paste. One side dish, how-ever, which is a must-try, is the deceivingly simple-sounding Cabbage with ginger and chili. It truly was a small bowl of spicy veg-etable heaven. Priced at just 40 kroner, this dish would make a great quick treat on the way home.

To � nish we tried what most Danes will judge Hero on: their sushi. Leaving our sushi future � rmly in the sta� ’s hands, we started with the Mackerel Nigiri. Having never tried it before, I was slightly scared by the remains of a Mackerel face staring back at me, but in it went. Now, while I won’t be rushing to have this one again, it is obvi-ously a very unique o� ering and therein lies its merit.

From the Uramaki sushi selection, we had the Tempera long beans with � ve spice aioli and scallions. Not usually a fan of veg-etarian sushi, I am now a convert. � e � ve

Feed a hero! Let yourself know it’s Yakitori time

spice aioli gave it a nice twist, whilst the tem-pura beans had a lovely crunchy texture. To � nish our hero-worthy experience, we sam-pled the Kaburimaki sushi with asparagus and avocado, topped with salmon, chives and ikura. A fresh sensation, the salmon in particular practically melted in your mouth, which is always a good sign of its quality.

Reasonably priced, impeccably chic and unbelievably tasty, this is the place to go if you want to be a hero amongst the trend-setters.

A human tale from the horseman’s mouth

F OLLOWING a summer � lled with an endless stream of mind-numbing cinematic superheroes and sequels, it is somewhat surprising to see an

American box o� ce hit in the form of a documentary from a � edgling direc-tor about a horse trainer. Mind you, despite this unlikely congruence, it is not as if American audiences have strayed too drastically from their the-matic comfort zone. � is is a � lm about a cowboy after all, and there is little that is more iconic and familiar to the American psyche than that. Also, the subject matter will be familiar to audiences due to Robert Redford’s � e Horse Whisperer, a 1998 � ction-alised adaptation of Nicholas Evans’s novel of the same name, although this documentary has mercifully little in common with Redford’s � lm other than the theme and horse trainer Buck Brannaman himself, who served as in-spiration for both the book and feature � lm, and who was hired by Redford as an on-set consultant.

Brannaman the man is far more compelling than Redford’s redun-dantly romantic characterisation could ever a� ord, and while his non-chiselled features, mild manner, and dry, often self-deprecating humour wouldn’t suf-� ce for Hollywood, he does undoubt-edly project unmistakable magnetism and authority when interacting with horses. Buck spends most of the year on the road, conducting seminars in horse-human communication, and owners often bring him nervous and

temperamental horses that recoil at be-ing led, much less saddled. We watch as he calmly establishes a rapport with them, wielding nothing but a rope and a � ag as he coaxes the horses until they follow alongside him obediently and unbidden. His technique and quiet control are not only impressive to novices and experts alike, but make for inexplicably engaging cinema, and audiences may well � nd themselves as mesmerised as the horses appear to be.

Novice director Cindy Meehl, a former fashion designer, met Branna-man in 2002 when she took one of her

horses to a travelling clinic in Penn-sylvania. “It was the � rst time I had seen him and he showed me that eve-rything I had been doing with horses was wrong. I was very humbled. I real-ised he was telling me how to speak the horse’s language. � ey were not meant to be slaves.” Buck’s philosophy, which stems from the “natural horseman-ship” movement, relies on empathetic encouragement rather than the heavy-handed “breaking in” that is often em-ployed in modern horse training, and while this may seem obvious, he is still regarded as something of an enigma.

� e � lm also reveals a man whose

talent with horses is rooted in a deeply traumatic childhood at the hands of a physically abusive alcoholic father who forced Buck and his brother into cow-boy showbiz (he started trick-roping aged three). It was a school teacher that noticed the signs of abuse, and Brannaman was subsequently fostered by a Christian couple who initiated him in the world of horse training. Meehl returns to the subject of his abusive childhood throughout the � lm, but her persistence comes across as revelatory rather than manipulative, and while she initially may seem to be o� ering insights into a man we might

otherwise � nd opaque, we are really seeing how his past makes him par-ticularly well suited to his career.

Meehl deftly reveals how the � lm is as much about human psychology as it is about horses, and Buck’s traumatic past provides a genuine point of com-parison. His � rm but honest approach to bad behaviour − not by the horse, but by its owner, reveals unacknowl-edged human personality � aws, and as Brannaman points out, if handled properly from birth, a troublesome horse can still have much to o� er. It may well be that he isn’t just talking about horses.

JUDGE DREDD is the crea-tion of comic writer John Wagner. Headlining weekly

UK anthology 2000AD, Dredd and fellow motorcycle-mounted lawmen protect and serve in a post apocalyptic, crime-ridden sprawl known as Mega-City One. Judges are so-called due to their on-the-spot sentencing: police-

man, judge, jury and executioner in one. Dredd’s previous outing, starring Sly Stallone, was berated for the blasphemous removal of Dredd’s trademark helmet and di-luting the dark, über-violent tone of the comic with the inclusion of a comedy side-kick.

� is version, starring Karl Ur-ban (Star Trek, Lord Of � e Rings), clearly aims to make full amends for the above crimes. Urban’s take on Dredd’s infamous underbite is admirable if only for the e� ort he’s put into it. Having not been en-dowed with the required chin, the Kiwi gnaws through his dialogue, growling out every scene like the words were chewing tobacco. � at’s part of the problem though; neither physically nor facially is he

ideally cast, so there’s a sense that he’s always reaching for the role and never quite managing to set-tle in it.

If Urban is the chin, his side-kick, thankfully not Rob Schnei-der, is the heart: Olivia � irlby is better suited to her role as the spir-ited but insecure rookie Anderson. One of the more e� ective scenes is her introduction to Dredd where she is stopped short of delivering a full psychological evaluation of him via her empathic skills. It serves to highlight his ‘anger and control’, hinting at a bottomless depth of pain, but crucially pre-serving the character’s air of mys-tery. It o� ers a vital glimpse into this character whose eyes we’ll nev-er read, and of the dynamic that

will drive the � lm’s rather sparse narrative.

Even though the action is mostly contained in one high-rise residential block, the production’s minimal budget still noticeably creaks in delivering the goods. Multi-coloured lighting illumi-nates the gleeful comic-book vio-lence, harkening pleasantly back to ‘80s genre cinema. Much of the action centres around a drug that speeds up the brain so it experi-ences time at one percent its nor-mal speed. � is device allows for the � lm’s more visually inventive sequences, ensuring that your eyes are often kept busy. Your brain, on the other hand, can a� ord to run considerably slower than usual.

Adieu Berthe

Dir: Bruno Podalydes; FA comedy, 2012, 100 mins; Denis Podalydes, Valerie Lemercier, Isabelle Can-delier, Catherine Hiegel; Mon 17:00, Grand TeatretGrand Teatret continues with its French Film Mondays, this time tackling the eternal French conundrum of wife vs mistress and dysfunctional but lovable families. It may all be a bit of a French stereotype by now, but you can trust director Bru-no Podalydes (Paris, je t’aime and � e Other Son) to breathe new life into a tired genre. LL

� e Deep Blue Sea (11)

Dir: Terence Davies; UK/US drama, 2011, 98 mins; Rachel Weisz, Tim Hid-dleston, Simon Russell Beale, Ann Mitchell, Jolyon CoyDramatically observed and poignantly acted, � e Deep Blue Sea tells the story of a woman who risks everything for love, and of the fear and loneliness that drives her. Ex-tra points go to Weisz for being so ridiculously beautiful! KRG

� e Dark Knight Rises (11)

Dir: Christopher Nolan; US action, 2012, 165 mins; Christian Bale, Tom Har-dy, Gary Oldman, Marion

Cotillard, Anne Hathaway With the arrival of Bane (Hardy), a terrorist hell-bent on ‘liberat-ing’ Gotham before reducing it to rubble, Batman (Bale) is forced out of exile to once again take on the role as Gotham’s Dark Knight. Nolan retains the deli-cate balance of building a credible reality while remaining respectful to the comic book origins, and as he departs from the Batman fran-chise, he leaves his reputation as a master � lmmaker and the general state of comic book cinema in the best shape they’ve ever been. MW

Brave (7)

Dir: Mark Andrews & Bren-da Chapman; US anima-tion, 2012, 100 mins; Kelly Macdonald, Billy Connolly, Emma Thompson, Julie WaltersWith subtle echoes of the Broth-er’s Grimm and a heroine that recalls both Mulan and Ronia the Robber’s Daughter, Brave is a surprisingly funny yet serious tale about identity, fate, tradi-tion and a troubled mother-daughter relationship. KRG

Avoid like the Plague

Ted (15)

Dir: Seth MacFarlane; US comedy, 2012, 106 mins; Mark Wahlberg, Mila Ku-nis, Seth MacFarlane, Joel McHale, Giovanni RibisiA tale of Peter Pan-esque protract-ed male adolescence and ‘bro-versus-ho’ ethics, this is a � lm that squarely relies on the comic potential of random � otsam and jetsam pop culture, tongue-in-cheek o� ensiveness and state-

of-the-art foul-mouthed puppet humour. As with much of Mac-Farlane’s work, it is devoid of any trace of sophistication or � nesse, and is � tfully amusing thanks only to the occasional dead-pan shock-value jokes o� ered by Mark Wahlberg’s crooked straight-man performance. AS

� e Bourne Legacy (15)

Dir: Tony Gilroy; US ac-tion, 2012, 135 mins; Jeremy Renner, Edward Norton, Rachel Weisz, Stacey KeachWhen a ten-year-old passport photo has the second most screen-time after the lead actor, the � lm holds little promise. No other franchise entry works this hard to justify its own ex-istence, the irony being that a decent action � lm is justi� ed by decent action – of which Bourne Legacy has little. AS

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter (15)

Dir: Timur Bekmambetov; US fantasy/horror, 2012, 105 mins; Benjamin Walker, Dom-inic Cooper, Anthony Mack-ie, Mary Elizabeth Winstead � is so-called � lm is nothing but a thinly veiled marketing fad from Hollywood’s whoremon-gers, a stick of quick-melting chewing gum for an ADD gen-eration. Avoid at all costs. AS

Total Recall (11)

Dir: Len Wiseman; US/Can sci-fi/action, 2012, 121 mins, Colin Farrell, Kate Beckinsale, Jessica Biel,

Bryan Cranston, Bill Nighy � is grossly miscast sci-� reboot is a soulless a� air with a handful of neat visual ideas that are incon-sistently executed by a director who, by aping giants like Ridley Scott and Steven Spielberg, only succeeds in placing emphasis on his own inadequacies. MW

Chernobyl Diaries (15)

Dir: Brad Parker; US horror/thriller, 2012, 86 mins; Devin Kelley, Olivia Taylor Dud-ley, Jesse McCartney, Nathan Phillips, Dimitri Diatchenko Despite some pretty dismal per-formances, this thriller has some eerily jumpy moments to o� er. Sadly the � lmmakers are unable to maintain this level of excite-ment beyond the � rst hour, where the taut thrills give way to directionless time-paddling. MW

Moonrise Kingdom (7)

Dir: Wes Anderson; US comedy, 2012, 94 mins; Ed-ward Norton, Bill Mur-ray, Frances MacDormand, Bruce Willis, Tilda Swinton, Jared Gilman, Katy Howard � is newest feature � lm from debonair � lmmaker Anderson has a brilliant cast, a wry script and stunning cinematography. It’s fashionable entertainment, and will no doubt please Ander-son’s considerable fan-base. But under all the bells and whistles, is it just another coming-of-age, feel-good romcom – even a faint-ly insincere one at that? MW

Bachelorette (3)

Dir: Leslye Headland; US comedy, 2012, 88 mins; Kirst-en Dunst, Lizzy Caplan, Isla Fischer, Rebel Wilson While there are funny mo-ments in Bachelorette, it’s really a drama at heart. By attempting to explore such serious issues in a light-hearted manner, Bach-elorette is sometimes witty and insightful – but more often that not, it’s just a bit depressing. LD

Ai WeiWei: Never Sorry (15)

Dir: Alison Klayman; US doc, 2012, 92 mins� ough Klayman super� cially skims several potentially fascinat-ing topics, the � lm’s accessibil-ity and immediacy make up for most analytical shortcomings. AS

Albert Nobbs(7)

Dir: Rodrigo Garcia; UK/ Ireland drama, 2012, 113 mins; Glenn Close, John Ban-ville, Mia Wasikowska, Aaron Johnson, Brendan Gleeson� ough Glenn Close shines in the title role, the conventional struc-ture and didactic plot will leave you counting the minutes while hoping to be surprised before events unfold, all too often, as pre-dicted. Albert Nobbs is not without an audience, but it’s far more likely to � nd it on prime-time television than in selected cinemas. MW

� e Expendables 2

Dir: Simon West; US Ac-tion, 2012, 103 mins; Syl-vester Stallone, Jason Sta-tham, Jet Li, Chuck Norris, Bruce Willis, Big Arnie Sly Stallone and other compatriots from the 2010 � lm � e Expend-ables return for the 2012 sequel, joined by an even more star-stud-ded cast of action movie legends. If you want to see old Hollywood heroes tear up the town in a fast-paced, shoot-em-dead � ick loaded with its share of wry humour, make � e Expendables 2 your choice this weekend. Just don’t expect much more than that. HB

Magic Mike (15)

Dir: Steven Soderbergh; US comedy, 2012, 110 mins; Channing Tatum, Alex Petty-fer, Mathew McConaugheyDespite some impressive dance sequences and a star director behind the camera, there’s only so much you can accomplish with a story about male strip-pers ... and it’s not much. LD

To Rome with Love (3)

Dir: Woody Allen; US/ Ita comedy, 2012, 102 mins; Woody Allen, Alison Pill, Judy Davis, Jesse Eisenberg, Alec Baldwin, Penelope Cruz, Ellen Page, Alessandra Mastronardi, Carol Alt, Roberto Benigni� is � lm may not be a rein-vention of the Woody wheel, but compared with most rom-coms out this summer, it is almost a masterpiece.

IS SHIRLEY Bassey dead? No, but neither is Maggie � atcher or Elizabeth II, and that didn’t stop the biopics about them. Maybe women are less litigious? Err, not in Kath-arine Hepburn’s case. Her lawyers were the main reason we had to wait so long for � e Aviator, 28 years after Howard Hughes’s death.

Anyhow, the 70-minute BBC drama Shirley (2011) is neither controversial nor intriguing. “Grit is swept under the carpet; it’s all about the glitz,” warns the Guardian, con-ceding that fans of the mixed-race singer, who was born in Cardi� in 1937 and went on to achieve inter-national fame as the singer of three James Bond title tracks, will love the “sultry, captivating, gorgeous” performance by Ruth Negga. But according to the Independent, it’s

cliched and made it “wonder wheth-er scriptwriting software might have been involved in its creation”.

Common sense accounted for � is is England ‘86 (SV2, Fri 22:15), a series that delves deeper into the colourful characters, three years on from the � lm. Set against the backdrop of the World Cup, director Shane Meadows welcomes back every key cast member with a script that is dramatic (the rape in episode three, cut with footage of pub-goers complaining about Maradona’s handball, is harrowing), humourous and nostalgic.

Also taking us back to the 1980s is Imagine: � e Fatwa - Sal-man’s Story (BBC World, Sat 22:10 & Sun 16:10), an interesting recol-lection from the author about what it was like living in hiding.

Elsewhere, Tabloid (SV1, Tue 22:00; DR2, Tue 21:00) details how a former Miss Wyo-ming abducted a young Mormon; don’t miss the second seasons of Homeland (DR1, Wed 22:30) and Flight of the Conchords (SV2, Fri 23:00); the subject of Infamous Assassinations (DRK, Mon 22:30) is Mahatma Ghandi while Stars Of � e Silver Screen (DRK, Tue 18:25) remembers Frank Sinatra; the obligatory war docs include Firestorm - the Bombing of Germany (DRK, Mon 20:00) and Last Day of World War One (DRK, Mon 21:40); while Fake or Fortune (DRK, Tue 20:00) is not as fun as it might suggest, but should inter-est serious art enthusiasts.
