Fantastic Full Trailer For Danish Noir-Thriller KANDIDATEN!

by Todd Brown, July 23, 2008 1:00 AM

It aint always the case but sometimes more really is better and such seems to be the case with Denmark's Kandidaten (The Candidate). Denmark is going through a pretty significant boom in noir-oriented films right now and Kaspar Barfoed's latest fits neatly into that mold.

Jonas Bechmann, a defence attorney, is a man of the system. Until the day he himself is accused of murder. Taking matters into his own hands, he throws himself into the hunt for a group of blackmailers who threaten to expose him as the killer. But nothing is what it appears to be, and the blackmail links back to his father’s death under mysterious circumstances a year and a half earlier.

Nikolaj Lie Kaas and Kim Bodnia - two of my favorite actors in the world - star and both are perfectly suited to this sort of thing. We posted the first teaser a couple months back, blown away by the look and feel of the thing. The full trailer arrived on the scene today and it's even better. Check them both out below the break.
