BLAM! Coming at you like Jackie Chan

G2 20 - 26 January 2012InOut | THE CPH POST ENTERTAINMENT GUIDETHIS WEEK

Blam!Republique, Østerfælled Torv 37, Cph Ø; starts Friday, ends Feb 11, perform-ances Tue-Fri 20:00; Tickets 160–255kr; www.republique.dk

FROM TOMORROW, Jackie Chan’s ass- kicking moves, dare-devil stunts and rip-roaring chase scenes will not just be con-fined to the big screen. Four of Denmark’s best physical performers have taken their cue from the most gripping action films, YouTube clips and pirated videos to bring you the stage performance Blam!

“Blam! is about people freeing them-selves and stepping into the movies where the natural laws of gravity don’t apply and people are capable of great things”, explains Kristján Ingimarsson, the show’s creator. Set in an office, the monotonous work tone is replaced by a high-octane energy as actors re-enact clips from their favourite movie scenes amidst desks, toi-lets and waste paper bins.

Blending together stunts, parkour, dance, acrobatics, mime and slapstick, the actors push their bodies to the limit, or some may say into the ‘danger zone’. “We don’t hold back at all,” enthuses In-

gimarsson. “Physically it’s a very tough performance and there have been a lot of injuries.” But it’s precisely the dangerous aspect to the show that Ingimarsson said “gives people the rush they seek”.

Blam! is a tribute to the body that it can do the impossible if given the chance. The actors in Blam! spend much of their time hanging with the new bad boy on the block: parkour. Developed in France, the focus of parkour is to move around obsta-cles – invariably everyday structures you might see on any city street in the world - with speed and efficiency by vaulting, rolling, running, climbing and jumping. You have to be a little mad to do this kind of stuff though - a French study showed ‘traceurs’ (people practicing parkour) seek significantly more excitement and thrills than gymnasts.

“Blam! is a play where I didn’t need to think too much,” continues Ingimarsson. “Blam! is just about thinking with your stomach, heart and pelvis.”

This is physical theatre at its best - a world away from intellectual theatre, some may say. Ingimarsson’s company, Neander Theatre, has captured the country’s top performers who have “worked their butts

off ” over the last two and half months to create the show. “Everyone is very turned on by this project and my hope is that the audience will be too,” muses Ingimarsson.

But all performances need some meaning behind the madness. Blam! provides a sharp hint of irony about the nature of our western culture – one that many have come to term as a ‘jackass cul-ture’ in which people voluntarily engage in death-defying challenges in their desire to reach the limit of human thrills.

“The world is in dire need of more ‘blaming’,” said Ingimarsson. His hope is that by the time the show ends, people leave the theatre armed with the inspi-ration and the raw tools to address that need. “Blaming can be done on the street, in the office, at the movies, in the bath-room - anywhere really!” And because the show has no speaking in it, there can be no misunderstandings about what ‘blam-ing’ actually is. There is a word of warn-ing issued from Ingimarsson though: “Don’t try to understand Blam! Just go with the flow.”

Blam: like an evening with Chan and Van Damme

inside this week

I TRY NOT to run on concrete. Besides hurting, it’s like I’m ex-pecting a whole generation of Jim Fix joggers to succumb to arthritic knees overnight and need wheel-chairs – like something out of � e Day of the Tri� ds.

Like Freud I blame my mother for most things. Her favourite party trick is to take my wheelchair-bound dad out to parks and tick o» joggers for running on the path, when they could be on the grass. “If you don’t believe me,” she says. “Just ask Davros.”

I like running around ¼ e Lakes in central Copenhagen. It’s mostly earthy - ideal if it’s been rain-ing. Recently I’ve been devising a new game I like to play that’s based on golf (see G9 for details about the forthcoming Golf Fair). Starting in Vesterbro, you split up the course into nine parts and reward yourself with a par every time you complete one without being overtaken.

Pass somebody, and you get a birdie, two an eagle etc. So, if you overtake a group of primary school

children, it’s Tiger Woods time. But likewise, a team of elite sportsmen out for a run will seriously damage your round – we’ll call that one an Ian Baker Finch.

¼ e key to a steady round is allowing superior golfers (we could call them gobbers or is that too close to doggers?) to pass you in the no-scoring zone - the pedestrian cross-ings between the ‘holes’. ¼ e key to a high-scoring round is to let the slow ones pass you as well, so you can overtake them, again and again and again – although there’s a risk you’ll end up with a restraining order.

Talking of which, you wouldn’t want to work with the performers in Blam! (see G2 for details). ¼ ere you are enjoying a boss-free after-noon when Tweedle Dum and Dee start re-enacting Face-o� . As a stage performance it sounds like a lot of fun, although (and perhaps this is an anal concern) I’d like to think I’d be able to recognise the movie. I remember really enjoying it when somebody (it was Vincent Gallo in Arizona Dream – but I’m loathed to mention the man responsible for � e Brown Bunny) did the crop-duster scene out of North by North-west, but it kind of helped that they had Cary Grant doing it ‘for real’ at the same time.

Almost as real as playing im-aginary golf in your head running around ¼ e Lakes.

Somehow the themes of adultery, hypocrisy, drinking and to-the-death duel-ling (Cavalleria) dovetail nicely with those of uncontrollable pas-sion, violence, poisoning, and murder (Pagliacci). KRG

THE CRITICS have said it many times over – the choreo-graphic formula of collabora-tors Nikolaj Hübbe and Sorella Englund is a product of more than talent, hard work, and ar-tistic perfect pitch. Crucially, it incorporates daring, new ideas. Hübbe, of course, is a veritable rock star in the world of ballet, complete with a reputation as an alleged coke-snorting megalo-maniac around the Royal Dan-ish ­ eatre. As a dancer, ­ e New York Times in 2008 de-scribed him as “experimenting in a “what if?” way that was a thrill to behold”. As a choreographer on August Bournonville’s Napoli here in town in late 2010, that’s exactly what he, and collabora-tor Sorella Englund, were doing. By bringing the plot a century closer, swapping old music for new, and rethinking old solu-tions, they o� ered what literary

critics call a ‘strong reading’ of classic material.

In early 2011, the directorial duo Hübbe and Englund (a leg-endary Bournonville-interpreter with Æ ve decades of experience) debuted their tastefully mod-ernised A Folk Tale, another Bournonville-gem, at the Royal ­ eatre. Now, one year later, we’re lucky to have the reprise. ­ eir take on the work – a fantas-tic, subtly Grimmian, unmistak-ably Nordic-À avoured tale about a changeling, her upcoming wedding, and plenty of mythical creatures – won the admiration of nearly every critic last year. At one level the production showed tradition and reinvention in mu-tual agreement, but essential to the success was also a remarkable ferocity unseen in the 500 plus Danish stagings that preceded it.

Naturally interpreters of Bournonville, the incorrigible founder of Danish ballet, cannot grant themselves carte blanche to do whatever – especially, I suppose, when Bournonville himself deemed the work his “best” and “most complete”. Nor is the royal stage the place to deconstruct the classics. But A Folk Tale has arguably beneÆ ted from the directors’ accentuating strokes. ­ e sacriÆ ce of idyll and light for some extra trolls and witches is laudable as it serves to expand the overall range of emo-tion.

our experience is signiÆ cantly heightened when we get a shot of fear and terror after Æ rst being lulled by Niels W Gade’s viva-cious orchestration – inspired by Mendelssohn’s in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. But never fear: this ballet is all about celebrat-ing the lovely Danish summer nights, as Det Kongelige Teater’s dramaturge Ole Nørlyng has said.

Another attraction of A Folk Tale is the extent and use of in-your-face symbolism. Whereas previous directors have had the ballet’s diverse demons wrestle hidden from view in a suggested underworld (metaphoric of the human mind), they now parade on the stage as if they owned it, starkly suggestive of the uncivi-lisable, sex and violence-prone human mind.

In brief, the ballet’s Æ rst act tells of Birthe, who is engaged to the melancholy Junker Ove but chooses to À irt shamelessly with Sir Mogens - so much so that she doesn’t notice the elf-girl Hilda trying to lure Ove into her elf-hill with a magic drink. Failing at Æ rst, Hilda summons her friends, and the bevy treat Ove, to some serious, spellbinding elf-dancing. Ove’s resistance crum-bles. Exeunt the lot of them.

­ e always important sec-ond act is the only one to feature music by JPE Hartmann, one of Bournonville’s most favoured

composers. Story-wise, suÕ ce it to say that Ove is not alone cher-ishing warm feelings for Hilda. Meet the troll brothers Diderik and Viderik back in the elf-hill. Also, as Hilda pays attention to her dreams she grows con-vinced that she and Birthe were switched at birth.

­ e third act, full of nuptial bliss, is perhaps best known by the Danes for containing their

absolute favourite romantic tune: Gade’s ‘Bridal Waltz’, which sees most eloping Danes o� in style. Gade himself thought it a triÀ e, but its popularity is up there with the national anthem – and it sure is catchy. However, we’re in for a dramatic ending.

A Folk Tale is often praised for being accessible and appeal-ing to all ages. Its huge popular-ity speaks for itself and may, in

part, be a testimony to playgoers’ enduring interest in fairy tales. Another factor may be the al-luring dreamy quality that stems from exquisite music and a host of fantastic characters – mostly in a seductive mood. And, of course, everybody can relate to a vicious, ugly troll.

G6 20 -26 January 2012InOut | THE CPH POST ENTERTAINMENT GUIDEMUSICMUSIC

Kaizers Orchestra doesn’t � t in a box, in fact they’re not even close to having a box. But this Norwegian polka/gypsy/rock band have created something of an institution for them-selves over the last decade. Formed in 2000 from fairly obscure beginnings, the Kaizers have capitalised on their un-placeable genre and indecipherable dia-lects to evolve as one of the top live acts throughout Scandinavia and Europe.

For those who’ve attended one of their concerts, you’ll know it’s the ener-gy from the band’s six members and the intensity at which they sing their fan-tasy lyrics that fans just can’t seem to get enough of. No surprise then that Kaiz-ers Orchestra was declared the best live act at the 2002 R o s k i l -

de Festival. I’d go so far as to say last summer’s Roskilde performance was a knockout too.

As part of their seven-month tour, performing 43 concerts, Vega will host the Kaizers on January 26. Vega holds a soft spot in the hearts of the band mem-bers after they recorded their popular double CD there in 2005. � e per-formance acted as a pivotal milestone in the band’s career and as proof of their

success in Scan-dinavia.

“Live at Vega is proof that anything is possible; that a spastic, foreign-sounding orchestra from tiny Norway can become one of the world’s greatest live bands. � e band that lives up to its own slogan: ‘Kontroll på Kontinentet’ (rule the continent), that band is Kaiz-ers Orchestra,” the band wrote on the inside cover of Live at Vega.

� is tour coincides with the release of Violeta, Violeta Vol II – the second CD in their Violeta, Violeta trilogy. Lead Kaizer, Janove Ottesen, aka ‘� e Jackall’, hit a major creative boom in 2007 and composed two to three songs every day

for ten days. Using this extensive backlog, Ottesen concep-

tualised the album tril-ogy.

� e lyrics,

Ottesen says, are “magic realism” based around three characters. “Seven buckets of tears is enough Beatrice with confetti in the hair and reeking of Jack Daniels/band-aid on the wound/and a thank you for the past” goes the song ‘Seven Buck-ets of Tears is enough Beatrice’.

When you put together six Norwe-gians, add three guitars, three oil bar-rels, a pipe organ, a double bass, steel rims, trash cans and sirens it’s hard not to resist becoming involved in the fanta-sy world that is Kaizers Orchestra. Tack on a strange Norwegian dialect that not even the natives can understand, and you’ve got yourself one heck of a great live act.

EMILY MCLEAN

W HO WOULD have thought that a rattling, ram-paging Norwegian singing orchestra would have the

crowds go crazy at Vega in Copenhagen one October evening in 2005? Probably the same people who would bet their whole record collection that thousands of Germans, Swiss and Spanish would one day holler along to songs in a lan-guage they did not understand, dance the ompa, and shout ‘Hallelujah’ to six saviours in Swedish suits playing gypsy music from Norway.”

So reads the liner notes of Kaizers Orchestra’s 2006 release, Live at Vega.

Oil barrels, steel rims, trash cans - yep, the Kaizers are in town

MUSICMUSIC

THE ROYAL Danish Acad-emy of Music provides top instrumental and vocal

courses for the future greats as well as specialised programmes in music education, composi-tion, conducting and sound engineering. � e general public bene� ts from the school’s pro-fessional performances of mod-ern and classical pieces rarely shown at larger national thea-tres and concert halls. � e level of talent and discipline at the conservatory challenges the no-tion of a student performance, and the range of the educational programme allows for more ex-perimentation. � e classics feel fresher and more like the artis-tic revolts they once were.

Maurice Ravel’s opera L’Enfant et les Sortilèges, or � e Child and the Spells: A Lyric Fantasy in Two Parts, is no ex-ception. An unusual one-act opera with a libretto by the re-nowned French writer Colette,

Nightlifeits plot contains only one hu-man character and is mingled with dance sequences. � e basic storyline concerns an insensi-tive young boy being taken to task by the animals and objects he has mistreated, learning compassion and kindness along the way. Fire, cats, an armchair and a myriad of toys all become personi� ed in dance and lyric melody.

� e opera was created with-in a childlike, fairy-tale atmos-phere. It only contains a few isolated moments of � ery Ital-ian operatic writing - the most extensive example being the solo aria of the Fire. Two cats hold court in a sensuous love-duet of meows and the Teapot and China Teacup sing a mostly incoherent spattering of Ameri-can and mock-Chinese idioms in French. � e music, however, is scored with a light illusion of transparency inside a sound that is simultaneously both full and warm. Ravel seems to enjoy incorporating unusual e§ ects such as clocks ticking and the cats meowing.

� e partnership between Ravel and Colette was un-natural and challenging, but

Colette’s ability to blend inno-cence with suave sophistication in her writing was the inspira-tion behind the story. It took Ravel nearly a decade to com-pose the opera, and Colette was surprised it actually made it to the stage. Written from 1917 to 1925, it was � rst performed in Monte Carlo in 1925 under the baton of Victor de Sabata with choreography by George Balanchine. � e public and critical response after that � rst performance was warm, but not e§ usive. Ravel said at the time: “Our work requires an extraor-dinary production: the roles are numerous, and the phantasma-goria is constant. Following the principles of American oper-etta, dancing is continually and intimately intermingled with the action.”

Although he is frequently linked with Claude Debussy and impressionism, Ravel was greatly a§ ected by his love of a variety of styles, including French Baroque, Bach, Mo-zart, and Chopin. His mother was of Basque heritage, which accounted for his fascination with traditional Spanish music, and he made a successful tour

of North America, where he met George Gershwin and had the opportunity to broaden his exposure to jazz. Ravel was pri-vate, meticulous and precise as a person, qualities that served him well as an orchestrator.

Ravel described the basic musical design behind his op-era as lighter than usual. “� e preoccupation with melody that characterises the work is accounted for by a storyline that it amused me to treat in the American operetta style. By dealing with a fantasytale, Mme Colette’s libretto justi� ed such a choice. Here, singing must come � rst; the orchestra, although capable of some vir-tuosity, remains � rmly in the background.”

� is partially-staged pro-duction was arranged for the symphony by Benjamin de Mu-rashkin, who mastered in com-position at the Royal Academy. Free tickets to the performance must be picked up at the recep-tion desk at the school before the performances during o ce hours from 09:00 to 15:00.

He is also the impetus behind the highly successful label, Saved Records which supports a sig-ni� cant battery of underground and techno names.

GhettosoulBakken; Sat 23:00; Free AdmDanish DJ-duo Nik B and L Søren will keep your feet warm through what will no doubt be another cold night with an assortment of beat-heavy retro disco, soul and hip-hop tunes. For those in town in the market for a party this weekend, Bakken is the perfect introduction to Copenhagen’s wild nightlife in the very heart of the trendy Kødbyen area.

After Hours Jazz PartyJazzhus Montmartre; Fri 23:00; 80kr (40kr students)Entering 2012, the Mont-martre has devised a new way to whet the appetites of Copenhagen’s ever-grow-ing jazz community with a weekly after-hours jazz party. Hosted by a dynamic trio of Montmartre’s youngest and � nest local musicians – led by Niclas Bardeleben (drum-mer), Jonathan Bremer (bass-ist) and Calle Brickman (pi-anist) – plus a special guest every Friday, the band o§ ers a more cultural, serene and contemplative end to the week with an assortment of jazz improvisations.

Nic FanciulliCulture Box, Sat 23:00; 100kr Copenhagen’s clubbers this week will embrace with open arms the arrival of Kent-born DJ, producer and label owner Fanciulli. Hailed as one of the best electronic musicians in the world, the Grammy-nominated producer has worked with a ALEXIS KUNSAK

� e WalkaboutsLille Vega; 21:00; 160kr� is Seattle-based group o§ er an elegiac-À avoured brand of folk pop. Stringing together elements of folk, punk, jazz and pop, their serene style of storytelling has hardly altered over the dec-ades – their 15th studio-album Travels In � e Dustland (2011), for instance, could have been plucked from practically any era in the band’s history. Each song is de� ned by gritty vocals tell-ing sardonic stories backed by an insistent electronic organ and traditional rock guitar hooks. Sadly, the group have become a little too studio-savvy, opting for more polished results as opposed to something more authentic.

Alex Riel, Jacky Terrasson & � omas FonnesbækJazzhus Montmartre; 20:00; 325kr� is evening’s showcase will be led by one of Denmark’s jazz leg-ends, drummer Alex Riel, who has worked alongside a string of � gures synonymous with mod-ern jazz including Bill Evans, Chet Baker and John Sco� eld. Performing alongside Riel will be the emerging Danish bass-ist Fonnesbæk, known for his unorthodox approach, and one of France’s most revered jazz � g-ures, pianist Terrasson. Together, the trio combine as a jazz group of unequalled skill.

� e Chris Tanner TrioCharlie Scott’s; 17:00; FreeCharlie Scott’s is another one of Copenhagen’s hidden jazz clubs situated in the heart of the city. Every Tuesday the Chris Tanner Trio – consisting of the local jazz-men Henrik Bay (guitar), Marc Davis (bass), and bandleader Chris Tanner (clarinet, vocals) – perform three-hour sets ideal for those just leaving the o ce. � e club pride themselves on their Tuesday sessions, which draw in the local jazz community on a regular basis. � ey also work with other jazz clubs in the city to further improve Copenha-gen’s already pristine reputation.

UB40Amager Bio; 20:00; Sold OutFormed in 1978, the reggae-pop group are one of the most suc-cessful bands from England’s sec-ond city, Birmingham. Infamous for the iconic ‘80s smooching-tunes ‘Red Red Wine’, ‘Can’t Help Falling in Love’, and their version of ‘I Got You Babe’, the diverse group became an inter-national phenomenon not long after their inception. Despite the group having continued without who was perhaps the most inte-gral band-member – lead singer Ali Campbell (who was subse-quently replaced by his brother Duncan a few years back) – they remain as popular as ever, having sold out tonight’s concert.

LIFESTYLE

Small, quirky and personalA GOOD MUSEUM experience can impact on an adventurous visitor in a number of di¼ erent ways. ¢ ey can in-spire, educate and o¼ er unforgettable experiences. However, museums come in many di¼ erent shapes and sizes, which can be quite overwhelming for the museum wanderer who wants to be able to penetrate what they perceive, and enjoy a quiet toasty-warm morn-ing or afternoon without being forced to spend time with endless crowds and getting lost in the maze of some of the big-scaled museums.With that in mind, join us this week as we sample the smaller museum ex-perience. Whether it’s a writer’s home transformed into a carefully preserved homage, a unique art collection in an old, underground water cistern, an ar-chitectural space exhibiting the story of Jewish life in Denmark, or a beautiful building devoted to a quite macabre and blood-curdling past - that of the everlasting struggle between the forces of justice and the bone-chilling crimi-nals lurking in the shadows - smaller museums can be just as looming as the shadows of the major museum.

Bakkehusmuseet Rahbæks Allé 23, 1801 Frederiks-berg, Open Tue-Sun 11:00-16:00In a humble yellow building on leafy Rahbeks Allé, in the quaint centre of downtown Frederiksberg, sits the small but magical Bakkehus Museum of liter-ary and cultural history. ¢ e museum is installed in the apartment in which one of the greatest Danish Golden Age

couples, Kamma and Knyd Lyne Rah-bek, lived from 1802 until their deaths in 1829 and 1830 respectively. ¢ eir home was also the home of many of the age’s great authors, artists and scien-tists of the Golden Age - HC Andersen was, in his youth, a regular guest. ¢ e tiny museum is like travelling back in time; the atmosphere in the home has a unique feel of a perfect union between environment and authenticity. ¢ e mu-seum has been meticulously restored and preserved, with original furniture, antiquated books and paintings and as-sortments of ornaments - all of which contribute to the authentic feel and fos-ter your creative side.

Cisternerne – Museum of Modern ArtSøndermarken, 2000 Frederiksberg, Open Thu-Fri 14:00-18:00, Sat-Sun 11:00-17:00While strolling in the lovely baroque garden, Søndermarken, you might think that the two entrance portals of Cisternerne – which are designed by Max Seidenfaden – are a scultptural part of Søndermarken, but they actu-ally lead you deep underground to the grotto-like water cisterns of olden times. ¢ ese have been rebuilt into a permanent museum of modern glass art complete with the stalactites formed by the changing water levels. To delve into the beautiful surroundings, and soak in the atmosphere and history of the water cisterns (which were constructed be-tween 1856 and 1859 and served their original purpose until 1981) while you admire the stained glass art works, is an art experience out of the ordinary.

� e Police Museum Fælledvej 20, 2200 Cph N, Open Tue, Thu and Sun 11:00-16:00 ¢ e old, intimidating police station build-ing from 1884, which now houses the Police Museum, might be in the heart of Nørrebro, but before 1852, it was in the countryside. But when the city decided to abandon the demarcation line, a build-ing boom took place in Nørrebro, which soon became the home of thousands of new workers who came to seek their for-tune in the city by legal and illegal means. While the historical tales are stirring, the surroundings alone are enough to trans-port travellers to another era. ¢ ere, in the antiquated rooms, you can experience the forces of justice of old and their doings and undoings. Floor-to-ceiling stacks of criminal photographs, artefacts and mur-der weapons reveal tales of pure malice, vivid despair, toe-curling shame and deep sorrow, as you learn more about the dark characters left out of the history books but nonetheless visible here. If you are feeling goose bumps and imagining cold air blowing down your neck by the end of your visit, you might want to enjoy a cup of a tea in one of the cafés in the neigh-bouring and sunny Skt Hans Torv.

� e Danish Jewish Museum Proviantpassagen 6, 1218 Cph K, Open Tue-Sun 10:00-17:00When strolling along the canals of Co-penhagen, you might encounter an old building in the backyard of the Royal Li-brary (the Black Diamond), which houses the � rst minority museum in Denmark: the Danish Jewish Museum. It might seem quite discreet with its red bricks and baroque-inspired design, but prepare for a surprise: there is actually a building inside a building inside a building. Confused?

Holiday bargains galore for the eagle-eyed

IT’S THAT TIME of the year for Co-penhageners, after recovering from the Christmas chaos and New Year hangovers, to start planning this year’s holidays. As if bang on cue, here comes the annual holi-day and golf fairs at the Bella Center.

Both events are aimed at oà ering nu-merous holiday options to visitors. Ma-lia Hye, the exhibitions and sales group manager who is responsible for this year’s Holiday Fair, is extremely optimistic about the turnout for this year’s festival – its 30th since 1983, which will be opened by Co-penhagen’s deputy mayor for culture, Pia Allerslev. According to Hye, last year’s event drew a whopping 39,086 guests and this year the numbers are expected to soar even higher.

Over three eventful days, the visitors can plunge into a world of diving, camp-ing, sports and gol� ng getaways. With hundreds of exhibitors from Denmark, Sweden, Germany, Spain and even Asian countries like ailand, the visitors will be spoilt for choice to pick their next holiday destination or activity. Be it personalised trip advice, lectures, presentations by ex-perts, or tours aimed at women, the Bella Center has it all packed under one roof in exhibitions halls C1-C5. Adding to the excitement are photo competitions and an amazing opportunity to win a camping trailer. Last but not least, the Holiday Fair will hold holiday auctions - the proceeds from which will be given to the Dansk Folkehjaelp, a charity that supports low income families and children.

A new element to this year’s fair is the focus on holidays for the young. e popu-

lar young people’s travel agency, STA Trav-el, will be participating and invites visitors to look at their special oà ers and inspiring holiday packages. “It’s an event for all ages, genders and social backgrounds,” enthuses Hye. “ erefore the event is divided into multiple fairs that have something of inter-est for everyone.” And not even the very young are excluded from the fun. ey will have their own play area called Lego World. Adding to the holiday spirit will be food stalls serving food based on holiday themes, such as sausages and sandwiches in the camping sections and healthy food in the sports section.

Running parallel to, and under the umbrella of the Holiday Fair, is the Golf Fair. For the seventh year in a row, this seg-ment has gained a lot of interest, drawing crowds as large as 12-14,000, which ex-plains why it is becoming more and more independent. e main aim behind the fair is to oà er gol� ng holidays, golf club memberships and the opportunity to get more people involved in the sport. Like the

Holiday Fair, the Golf Fair is also taking a proactive approach and getting visitors in-volved in activities.

Featured at the fair will be golf courses from Denmark, Sweden, northern Germa-ny, Spain, Morocco, etc. Also on show will be holiday houses in Turkey, Spain, ai-land and other destinations that are built around golf courses. e chief organiser of the event, Carl Erik Hesseldal, adds that the nine new exhibitors who will be rep-resenting the holiday properties are a new feature to the fair.

Gol� ng enthusiasts will be pleased to know that the fair will also feature an ap-pearance by Anders Dahl Christensen, a highly respected Danish golf coach. He’ll be at the fair oà ering advice and answering the queries of visitors. Alongside him will be a host of other golf pros and PGA train-ers. According to Hesseldal, perhaps the most exciting and crowd-drawing aspect of the fair will be the competition to win a car at the SIM (simulator).

DID YOU KNOW that, besides their beguiling shape, texture, and avour, avocados are technically a fruit? In 1970s America it was chic to have avocado green kitchen ap-pliances. Nothing can erase my memories of ovens and refrigerators the colour of rotting peas. As much reverence as I have for the avocado, it does not translate well to applianc-es. Or shag carpet for that matter.

­ en there were the times I tried in vain to grow my own avo-cado tree by sticking toothpicks into the seed and placing it carefully over a jar of water. Has anyone ever had success with this? I have a friend from Tanzania who recalls eating avocados by the dozen, right o the tree. She warned that this is not nec-essarily a diet friendly approach.

Triple Chocolate Avocado Brownies (Adapted from Tastes Better with Friends)

60g unsalted butter – room temperature115g brown sugar1 egg2 ripe, mashed avocados75g Nutella225g flour60g cocoa powder (unsweet-ened)10g baking powder10g sea salt10g vanilla extract60g chocolate chips (or chopped dark chocolate)60g sliced, toasted almonds

Avocados make for a killer chocolate mousse, but even better are the Tri-ple Chocolate Avocado Brownies, which are worth every second of the miniscule e ort to make them. I was apprehensive about the texture of the � nished product since, compared with

traditional recipes, the amount of fat and sugar is reduced a lot. But I was surprised. While slightly more cakey, they are still moist and soft. ­ e goo-eyness factor is minimised; they are sweet but not cloyingly so - another feature of the usual culprit. ­ at they are sort of a health food doesn’t hurt, either. My four-year old wouldn’t touch an avocado to save his life, but he was crazy about the brownies. Did I mention they contain Nutella?

Preheat the oven to 180C, and grease a 20 or 23cm baking dish. Beat the butter and sugar well. Add the egg, avocados, and Nutella. Beat well. Sift and add the our, cocoa powder, bak-ing powder, and salt and beat again. Gently stir in the vanilla, almonds, and chocolate chips. Pour into the pre-pared pan and bake for approximately 20 minutes. Depending on your oven, you might need to undercook slightly or bake for an additional 5 minutes. Check after 20 minutes. Cool for 15-20 minutes and cut into squares.

But unless you sit down to avocados for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, it’s highly unlikely you’ll get fat eating them. What’s more, the number of reasons to include avocados as part of your regular diet far outweighs the risk. Avoca-dos contain unsaturated fat, which is the good fat that helps to activate the part of your brain that makes you feel full. Alas, a feeling we don’t get with French fries. Avocados also contain folic acid, � ber, and an anti-oxidant that is believed to protect against eye disease.

Apart from the ubiquitous guacamole, there are a myriad of ways to incorporate this wonder fruit into your kitchen. Dessert, for example. It might seem strange, but it really works.

G1320 - 26 January 2012 InOut | THE CPH POST ENTERTAINMENT GUIDEFOOD & DRINK

COLD NIGHTS, dark days, and low cash � ow are all factors enough to keep one indoors and curl up on the sofa during the long month of January in Copenhagen. But all hope is not lost, if you venture out to the plush Lange-brogadekaj in Christianshavn. Now al-though this might seem like an unlikely idea at this time of the year, a pleasant surprise is guaranteed, as emerging from the corner of Langebrogade is a chic boat named Restaurant Viva, anchored coyly in the waters before the astound-ing backdrop of Islands Brygge’s skyline.

Mesmerised by this view, if you walk further in and enter the boat, what wel-comes you is a cosy and elegant dining room with a modest bar in the corner. Welcomed by the sta� as we stepped onto the boat, I was shown to our table - one among those placed along the row of submarine windows that boast a fan-tastic view. � e seating arrangement in Viva is such that some customers ben-e� t from the city view and while others are seated with a quayside view.

Serving food since 2004, Viva has created a reputation as a non-boastful yet elegant restaurant among the dining enthusiasts of Denmark. While the eat-ery is modest, it is also posh (I’d like to say aptly so, but it is an urban myth that the ‘port out, starboard home’ origins of the word date back to the � rst class area on a return trip from Britain to India, as this was only � rst coined in the musi-cal Chitty Chitty Bang Bang), combined with a moderate amount of quirkiness. Owner Buster Schmidt, who is a trained handyman, pursued his passion for food along with his father-in-law and child-hood friend Paulo Gomez. Viva � rst opened its doors as a Mediterranean restaurant serving seafood dishes with in� uences from southern Spain and Italy. But with the onset of 2012, the menu and wine list have undergone a transformation and now the restaurant serves food inspired by the Scandinavi-an, French and Mediterranean kitchens.

In a city where restaurants serv-ing similar themed cuisines are in no shortage, Viva certainly sets itself apart with its unique location and thrown-in element of � ne food. According to Schmidt, Viva is all about � ne dining without the hassle of a formal setting.

While taking in the surroundings and enjoying a � ne glass of champagne, we were served a delicious Brioche served with foie gras and yoghurt on what looked like a sleek marble block.

� is was the style of the dishes in which the food was served throughout the evening - I was told that the set was made especially for the restaurant.

Following this were the Lim� ord’s oysters with cucumber foam and cream, which we gratefully devoured – washed down with a 2009 Alsace Trimbach I seem to remember, or was it the 2008 Stellenbosch Rustenberg – before tack-ling the fried Norwegian lobster, served in a setting of cream cheese, winter cab-bage and dill.

As our palates tuned into the many

tastes of the sea, we felt at home in our maritime setting. Next was the visually amazing Smoked potatoes and Vester-have cheese, garnished with chives. � e poached turbot served with leek and cress was accompanied by what they call the aroma of November – well, we don’t know if March would have been more appropriate given its reinvigorating appearance. For dessert we were spoilt with a medley of apples – a sweet but not calorie-horri� c ending to what was a splendid menu.

� e prices at Viva are far from

Aboard the good ship Viva, it’s worth the trip - believe us

what one would call exorbitant. � ey are in fact reasonable and mirror the current standards of gourmet restau-rants in the city. All in all, while Viva is a good restaurant that pleasures your taste buds without burning a hole in your pocket, its biggest sell-ing point remains its location – a boat setting that sets Viva apart from other gourmet restaurants.

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

G18 InOut | THE CPH POST ENTERTAINMENT GUIDE 20 -26 January 2012

DiCaprio wasted in an ultimately dull movie

THERE IS A DEFINITE moral to the story with J. Edgar – that even 137 minutes of � lm is not nearly enough time to encom-pass roughly 50 years of one of

the most interesting � gures of the 20th century. At the same time, 137 minutes is also much too long for a � lm that never digs deep enough to uncover an-ything profound. It tantalises you with its potential but, like a child prodigy gone bad, never lives up to its promise.

It is long, overdrawn and empty, which is a shame when you have as much ammunition as J. Edgar Hoover gives you. In fact, with such an inter-esting story to work with, it is quite amazing that Hollywood could have produced something which is, quite frankly, so boring.

For those not au fait with their American history, J. Edgar Hoover was the � rst director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). By all accounts he revolutionised police/detective work by hiring great scienti� c minds and moved forward on a lot of tech-nology thought to be ‘bunk’ back in the day – for example, � ngerprinting. He was also a huge fan of wiretapping whomever he thought to be a threat to his country or himself. � e legend of his personal � les must drive the Brit-ish tabloids crazy with the thoughts of ‘what if …’

J. Edgar is set up as a � lm where J. Edgar Hoover (Dicaprio) is an old man

dictating his memoirs from behind his desk to many di� erent underlings at the FBI. � e highlights and lowlights he includes are his work against the Communists in the 1920s, his ascen-sion to the top of the Bureau, his � ling system, the Lindbergh Abduction, his scienti� cation of the Bureau, the rela-tionship with his mother (Dench), his ongoing feud with the Kennedys, his obsession with catching out Martin Luther King and his secret � les. Along the way he has to deal with seven dif-ferent presidents with only his long-time (and only) secretary Miss Gandy

(Watts) and constant companion (life partner?) and Bureau number two Clyde Tolson (Hammer).

It is important to note that Hoo-ver is an unreliable author. � ere is a di� erence between Hoover’s memories and the actual truth. � is is shown near the end of the � lm when Tolson pulls the rug out from under Hoover and his facts. � is does help to shape how we saw the previous two hours worth of � lm, but is not nearly enough to save it.

� e real bright spot of this � lm is without question Dicaprio. Whether

playing the young, on-the-cutting- edge FBI director or playing the older, scheming FBI dictator, Dicaprio steals the scenes. He manages to play a char-acter generally regarded as a huge dick-head somewhere in the middle ground. His combination of vulnerability and ruthlessness gives the impression of a man who must have absolute power or none at all.

But is Hoover a good guy or a bad guy? Is he gay, is he straight? Eastwood deliberately leaves all this very vague in hopes that the mystery will lead to intrigue. Unfortunately, in this case, it

leads to wishy-washy. It needed to take a stand and get o� the fence to one side or the other.

It’s disappointing to think what J. Edgar could have been if Eastwood had focused more closely on one time period or story (perhaps the Lind-bergh abduction) and � lled in the rest with ¡ ashbacks. � is is a clumsy � lm, loaded down with too many awkward ¡ ashback back-and-forths and awful makeup akin to the Muppets, to re-ally be anything more than a starting point for something better to be done on him sometime soon.

FILM

J. Edgar (11)

Dir: Clint Eastwood; US drama, 2011, 137 mins; Leonardo Di-Caprio, Naomi Watts, Armie Ham-mer, Judi Dench

Premiered January 19Playing nationwide

“But your honour, it’s true! I was saved from the Titanic by an alien ship and returned to Earth 10 years later, without having aged a day.”

KEVIN EVANCIO

THIS FILM IS both senti-mental and moving. It is like a satisfying meal; it

isn’t too heavy and leaves you feeling content afterwards.

It is based on a true story by the neurologist-turned-au-thor Oliver Sacks entitled � e

Last Hippie. (Incidentally, this was one of my least favourite stories featured in An Anthro-pologist on Mars, the original book of essays. However, the � lm adapted the story very well.)

� e story is about a man, Gabriel (Pucci), who develops a brain tumor and is reunited with his parents after 20 years. Gabriel su� ers from intense amnesia after undergoing sur-gery on the tumour. � e year is 1986, but for Gabriel it is still the late ‘60s. His father, Henry (Simmons), helps to take care of Gabriel. In an e� ort to cure his son, Henry � nds a music therapist and through music they are able to bring forth a more lucid Gabriel. Neverthe-

less, because Gabriel cannot re-member beyond 1970, Henry has to come to terms with the son who left so many years ear-lier.

� e acting in the � lm is incredibly strong. Antonia Dauphin, who did the casting for this � lm, should be patting herself on the back. Simmons is gru� and grumpy, yet sweet and kind as the father. He is easily the star of this � lm. Puc-ci is also great as Gabriel, which isn’t the easiest part to play.

� ough the direction the story was heading in is not entirely surprising, it isn’t en-tirely predictable either, which is refreshing. � e � lm has some fantastic awkwardly real mo-ments and the dialogue is per-

fect. � e father-son relation-ship is revealed in ¡ ashbacks, each scene building on the next but not in an obvious progres-sion.

� e � lm also does a good job of assigning meaning to objects, which works wonder-fully as it’s about how we assign meaning to songs. It is about how music touches us, how music goes somewhere deeper than words and just digs into you. And we all know the feel-ing of hearing a song and being transported somewhere else. As described in � e New York Post, this is “an unpretentious and unexpectedly moving” � lm.

� e Music Never Stopped

The Rocky Horror Picture showHusets Biograf, Magstræde 14, Cph K; Sat 19:00 & 22.30 (sold out); tickets: 60kr; www.husetmagstraede.dkThis cult classic from 1975 is a wild and wacky musical about a newly-wed couple who get lost on the road one night and find themselves at the castle of Dr Frank-N-Furter, a trans-vestite. Both showings will be introduced by special guest, Tore (aka Riff-Raff), who is an experienced rocky cultist. His entertaining intro to the movie is a show in itself – he’ll even teach you how to do the ‘Time Warp’! EM

50/50 (7)

Dir: Jonathan Levine; US dramedy, 2011, 100 mins; Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Seth Rogen, Bryce Dallas HowardThe ability to get laughs out of an illness so devastating as can-cer is difficult, and getting them without being cheesy or forced is a true work of genius. KE

The Adventuresof Tintin 3D (7)

Dir: Steven Spielberg; US action, 2011, 107mins; Jamie Bell, Daniel Craig, Andy Serkis

Whilst the film very much stays true to the mythical and timeless world that Tintin author Hergé so masterfully created, the intro-duction of slick film techniques and 3D wizardry makes it a modern story for a modern au-dience. JS

Drive (15)

Dir: Nicolas Winding Refn; US thriller, 2011; 95 mins; Ryan Gosling, Carey Mul-liganRefn manages to build extraor-dinary tension before igniting brief outbursts of violence. Sheer brilliance! KE

money ball (3)

Dir: Bennett Miller; US drama, 2011, 133 mins; Brad Pitt, Jonah Hill, Robin Wright, Chris PrattMoneyball is a baseball movie first and a drama about the underdog second. With a ‘home run’ performance from Pitt, Moneyball is his potential award winner of 2011. KE

Another Happy Day

Dir: Sam Levinson; US drama, 2011, 119 mins; Ellen Barkin, Ezra Miller, Ellen Burstyn Another Happy Day combines some of the stock elements of a family film with an honesty and viciousness that brings it up a notch, but only just. EM

The Darkest Hour (11)

Dir: Chris Gorak; US hor-ror, 2011, 89 min; Emile Hirsch, Olivia Thirlby, Max MinghellaLike many horror movies, at the beginning everything seems hunky dory until it all turns apocalyptic. The Darkest Hour was predictable and predictably bad and will leave audiences feeling confused and frustrated. ED

in Time (11)

Dir: Andrew Niccol; 2011; 109 mins; Justin Timberlake, Amanda Seyfried and Cillian MurphyWhile the cast’s looks may be hot the action scenes are not – most are blatantly mundane at times. As one reviewer said “In Time fills its dynamic, sprawl-ing universe with about as much character and drama as a half-hour game of Sim City.” EM

larry Crowne (3)

Dir: Tom Hanks; US comedy, 2011, 98 mins; Tom Hanks, Ju-lia Roberts, Sarah MahoneyDo not expect Forrest Gump or Pretty Woman. Congenial is the word for Larry Crowne, but it’s as flat as an ironing board. EM

New Year’s Eve (3) Dir: Garry MarshallA tepid, shallow and predictable farce full of trivial problems. If it’s feel-good fluff you’re after, here’s enough for a whole year. KG

Twilight Saga: break-ing Dawn - Part i (11)

Dir: Bill Condon; US drama, 2011, 117 mins; Robert Pat-tinson, Kristen Stewart, Strictly for teenagers of the female variety. EM

Contagion (15)

Dir: Stephen Soderbergh; US thriller/drama 2011, 118mins; Matt Damon, Gwyneth Paltrow, Marion Cotillard, Kate Winslet, Jude LawThe film functions more like a bird’s eye view - rather than an intimate human account - leav-ing the audience uninvolved and distinctly uninfected. MW

The Girl With the Dragon Tatoo (15) Dir: David Fincher; US thriller, 2011, 158 mins; Daniel Craig, Rooney Mara, Christopher PlummerSomething about The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo jars. Whether it’s the fact that all of Stockholm unaccountably speaks English, or that Fincher’s version has grown up in the shadow of its model – an excellent work – is hard to say. Although not des-tined to become a modern clas-sic, this will no doubt excite many. KRG

The Help (7)

Dir: Tate Taylor; US drama, 2011, 137 mins; Emma Stone, Viola Davis, Bryce Dallas HowardSet in the 60s Mississippi, the film has a political backdrop, but despite pulling on the heart-strings, The Help is entertaining and enjoyable. ED

kill list (15)

Director: Ben Wheatley; UK Thriller, 2011, 95 mins; Neil Maskell, Michael Smiley, Myanna Buring, Emma FryerThere’s grim violence aplenty, from which poor aesthetics pro-vide no respite. Performances are the film’s saving grace, lending more charm and credibility to a script that deserves far less. MW

The inbetweeners (11)

Dir: Ben Palmer; UK com, 2011, 93 mins; Simon Bird, James Buckley, Blake Har-rison, Joe Thomas As with many TV to film tran-sitions the tendency can be to adopt a more benign approach to its previous incarnation –thankfully the film retains much of its signature crudity but it does lose something by attempt-ing to give us more. MW

Real Steel (11)

Dir: Shawn Levy; US action, 2011, 126 mins; Hugh Jack-man, Evangeline LillyReal Steel has a fairly predictable plot and an ending so cheesy that you are liable to choke on it.

However, you find yourself car-ing not only about the human characters but the robots too. All in all, Real Steel looks like the real deal. KE

Sherlock Holms: A Game of Shadows (11)

Dir. Guy Ritchie. US ac-tion, 2011, 129 mins; Robert Downey Jr, Jude Law, Noomi Rapace Ritchie gives you what you ex-pect here - lots of action, fight scenes and raw adrenaline chopped up and slowed down depending upon his mood on the day he was editing. There isn’t anything to really bring it all together though, but you’ll still have fun with this one. KE

This must be the Place

Dir: Paolo Sorrentino; Fra/Ita/Ire dramedy, 2011, 118 mins; Sean Penn, Frances McDormand Cheyenne (Penn) is a retired, middle-aged rock musician who floats about existing on the roy-alties from a successful recording career. After receiving word of his father’s death he promptly returns to his birthplace of New York where he learns of his fa-ther’s life quest: to track down a Nazi officer from the concentra-tion camp where he was impris-oned. There’s an awkward sense that the jaunty visual comedy of Penn as an aging rocker belongs in a different genre than that of Nazi war camps. Yes, they form a coherent whole that is both en-tertaining and superficially en-gaging, but the problem lies in the lack of sincerity within the subjects themselves. MW

PICK OF THE WEEK

IF YOU haven’t read William Boyd’s novel on which this week’s pick is based, Any Human Heart, you’re in for a real treat. But if you have – theoretically putting you among the 20 percent of Americans who read one last year or the 67 percent of British children who own one – you’ll probably be disappoint-ed. � ere’s no pleasing some people when it comes to book adaptations.

� is heart-warming four-part miniseries takes the reader from a 1920s British private school (err, they cut that), to 1960s Nigeria (and that bit), and 1970s Pimlico (unfortunately left in) on an odys-sey of the 20th century in which the central character (like all Boyd books: tall, dark and handsome - he doesn’t know how to write men who aren’t irresistible to women)

Logan Mountstuart (portrayed by three actors) does a whole lot of lov-ing, encountering a host of famous names including Earnest Heming-way, Ian Fleming, and the Duke and Duchess of Windsor (a creepily brilliant Tom Hollander and Gillian Anderson) in the process.

It’s great fun, although you question at times where it’s really going. � e central theme is the dif-ferent ages of man, and the use of three actors allows for a lot of intro and retrospection. Of the Logans, Jim Broadbent nails it as the older self despite the daft Baader-Mein-hof storyline, while Matthew Mac-fadyen (Darcy in Keira Knightley’s Pride and Prejudice) disappoints as the middle-aged version.

Elsewhere, One Lucky El-ephant has a 96 percent Rotten

Tomatoes rating thanks to a hu-man/animal bonding poignancy that gives Born Free a run for its money; Kim Wilde - Kids in America (SV2, Tue 21:30) takes us back to the tinny-sounding ‘80s; we’ve got the second series of Burn Notice (TV3 Puls, � u 23:15), the Miami-based drama about a sacked spy who thinks he’s discovered the whereabouts of British actress Gabrielle Anwar; Sunday’s footy on K6 sees Man City vs Spurs (14:00) followed by Arsenal vs Man Unit-ed (16:30); Paris Brothel (DR K, Sat 22:30) traces the history of the French whorehouse; and Whisker Wars (DR HD, Sat 14:45) is a mi-raculous moustachioed world that looks like it was directed by Terry Gilliam.
