Escape from boredom

We went to see the new movie Kautokeino-opprøret http://www.filmweb.no/kino/article117345.ece today. We both found the movie very good, and felt sorry for the rebels being somewhat forced to do what they did. But, when back home we started to read a bit more about the actual event and quite soon realized that there are different views of the incident. The movie covers most of the events that occurred, but it fails due to the fact that we thought that the rebels “had” to do it. Read more here http://www.altaposten.no/lokalt/reportasje/article130654.ece I also found the dr. thesis about the incident http://ask.bibsys.no/ask/action/show?pid=970088949&kid=biblio

By the way…did not know that my friend Loy had a part in the movie

My latest book “Gud er norsk” written by Aslak Nore is a book about Norwegian soldiers serving abroad. Starting with Tysklandsbrigaden after the second world war and up to Iraq and Afghanistan today. I find parts of the book very good and informing, as for other parts…not as good. The first chapter when he takes us back to when he served in Bosnia is … bad … This review is more or likely sharing my opinion http://www.dagbladet.no/kultur/2007/10/12/514798.html
