The fire that burns

Malte has an incurable brain tumor. To avoid future pain and suffering, he thinks active euthanasia is the way to go. He’s accompanied by his friends on an RV journey from Sweden to Switzerland, to complete the assisted suicide thing. It’s both laughter and tears. Dag för Dag (Day by Day) is quite a forgettable Swedish drama comedy. Coincidentally Sven Wollter, the actor portraying the dying man, died before the release of the film from complications caused by COVID-19. The movie remains his last on his remarkable career. He was 86 years old.

Some people are blurred

Based on a Stephen King book and at least loosely based on the active years of serial killer BTK, aka Dennis Rader . Quite good otherwise ...
