Kongens Nei (the King's no)

[Simon O.]

Just released in Norway to very good reviews across the board is a film that centers around the King of Norway's role during the first couple of days of the invasion of the country on 9th April 1940.

Overall they did a very good historical job i think. Amongst other things they did a great job with the sinking of the heavy cruiser Blücher (they even used the original guns at Oscarsborg fortress) and for the FJ interested you will see Hptm.Erich Walther portrayed.

Those of you who have seen Der Untergang will also recognise the actress who played Eva Braun

I'm sure it will come out with English subtitles

Just saw this movie on Netflix, now titled "The Kings Choice" for the English subtitle version. I highly recommend this movie, it's very well done.

I also thought this was a good movie very well made. A bit of a slow burner but well worth the watch.
