The Boss of It All

Posted on May 24, 2008August 30, 2020 by Village Vidiot

  “The Boss of It All,” 24 May 2008  (2006), DVD.  We (well, I, Bronwen fell asleep) enjoyed this sly, low-key Lars Von Trier Danish comedy about an actor hired to play the boss no one’s met by the real boss who, for ten years, has masqueraded as a worker at a Danish IT company. He brings in the self-absorbed, silly actor, Kristofer, to be the heavy and close the deal that will sell the company to an Icelandic IT firm. But the real boss hasn’t told anyone this is happening. Kristofer has to deal with the situation. It evokes very crazy elements such as the woman staff member who tries to convert the boss from homosexuality (he’s not gay) and the other odd staff members. It’s lots of fun. Really great hostility between the Icelanders and the Danes. Just a fun, sly film.   See this one.
