This woman is a master. Her version of Brothers was way superior to the American remake and After the Wedding is stunning. She got screwed when she came here and made Things We Lost in the Fire.
The film played at Sundance, it is nominated for an Oscar for best foreign film and just won the Golden Globe. Later this month she is the front runner to win the Oscar, so maybe we will actually see a woman director get up and be acknowledged for her film.
Film opens in the US on April 1.
Here's the beginning of an interview with Bier, from Sundance.
If she were American rather than Danish, Susanne Bier would likely be one of the more recognizable filmmakers in the world. She specializes in emotionally gripping, character-based dramas that manage to be both accessible and aesthetically accomplished. Pigeonholed in the American arthouse, she's really making stories for the masses. After edging toward stateside recognition with a 2007 Oscar nomination for After the Wedding, and after last year's American remake of her wartime love triangle Brothers, the lid might have finally come off when her latest film, In a Better World, took home the award for Best Foreign Film at this year's Golden Globes.
A contemporary allegory about cycles of aggression and revenge, the film alternates between middle class families in small-town Denmark and a medical outpost outside a war-ravaged African village. It's a film very much of its moment, but it also addresses perennial questions about how men can coexist without constantly punching one another's lights out—or destroying civilization in the process. In advance of the film's U.S. premiere at the Festival (and her position as a member of the World Dramatic Jury this year), Ms. Bier talked about the art of storytelling, and why she remains an optimist despite the fragile state of the world.

So is Eric Hynes (interviewer) or me (the one who couldn't get past his first sentence) the bigger idiot here?
Diane Meier | February 4, 2011 3:28 AM
Sorry to make this a comment of a comment - but ...
Jen --- Your'e kidding, right?
Here's a good example of what we're talking about:
Isabel Coixet's film "Elegy" -- Ben Kingsley, Peter Sarsgaard, Patricia Clarkson and Penelope Cruz. The film version of the a Philip Roth novel and perfectly brilliant. Beautifully dressed, written, shot, acted. All the pedigrees are there, except for one: Directed by a woman.
On top of it, Coixet did a lot of her own camera work.
Kingsley's performance, by the way, is stunning. But did you hear about it? Probably not. It was displayed in only about a hundred theaters all over America. If that. And it only played a week (sometimes only a weekend) in those very very few theaters. If you blinked, you missed it. No advertising. No publicity. No money behind it. No event.
And who's heard of Coixet? Have you?
Now think about. Given the line up (Kingsley, Cruz and Roth), had it been directed by - say, Barry Levinson or Steven Soderberg -- do you think you might have heard about it? Do you think your local theater might have picked it up?
It's a movie for grown-ups, so I'm not suggesting that in this environment of violent-kiddie entertainment, it would have made money if it had been directed by Soderberg... But, come on -- as Aaron Sorkin might have written, "I'm just saying..."

If she were an American woman, she might not have a career at all. Our European counterparts are able to work directing commercials and in some countries there are a large number of women directing television. I've also noticed that they tend to get married and have children, in direct contrast to most of the successful female directors here.
Jen | February 3, 2011 5:37 AM
As I have only been reading your blog for about a month, I value the commentary about the work of women but don't yet have a sense of the whole picture. How do you suppose the recognition of Susanne Bier as a filmmaker would differ if she were American rather than Danish? Is being American central to the popularity of one's work in film? Do writers like Eric Hynes ever say "If [woman filmmaker] were male rather than female, she would likely have been more successful"? I guess what I'm really wondering is: how much does the industry acknowledge the gender disparities?
Thank you for writing Women & Hollywood.
Ok, I know this wome-in-refrigerators-thing exists, that's obvious. But you can't just say
Ha ha like you're a model or professional critic, you have a lot to say for a nobody. As they
Funny how the fuller girls get criticized& rejected but not the talentless, anorexic, vain ones
She's not curvy, she is morbidly obese(fat).
Excellent interview. I quoted excerpts and linked on our Barking Planet blog. Thank you, Robert

WOODBURY, N.J. (AP) - The Roman Catholic Diocese of Camden has bought a mansion from Rowan University to use for a bishop's home and functions.
Diocese spokesman Peter Feuerherd tells the Courier-Post that more space was needed for Bishop Dennis Sullivan to meet with donors, benefactors and use as workspace.
The $500,000 sale closed Dec. 23.
The bishop currently lives in an apartment at the St. Pius X Retreat House in Blackwood. The church is selling the Blackwood home where previous bishops lived.
The new home in Woodbury was controversial for Rowan University, which bought it in 2000 as a home for then-President Donald Farish.
The university had been trying to sell it since Farish left in 2011.
The 1908 home has an in-ground pool, three fireplaces, a library and a five-car garage.

PEORIA, Ill. -- Social commentator Michael Eric Dyson gave a rousing speech at the annual Martin Luther King Jr. Luncheon at the Peoria Civic Center.
Dyson, a professor at Georgetown University, said people want to honor Dr. King for what he did in his lifetime, rather than thinking how Dr. King's messages of non-violence and inclusion apply to today's problems.
"Instead of dealing with concealed carry, instead of dealing with 'stand your ground', instead of dealing with the persistence of racial economic inequality, instead of dealing with the rights of lesbian, gay, transgender and bisexual people, instead of dealing with the disparity between what men make and women make," he said.
Dyson's address to some 1,300 people was organized by the organization "Public Employees for Community Concern".

2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 to debut in Detroit - report
Could have up to 600 bhp (447 kW)
The North American International Auto Show is six months away but a new report is indicating the 2015 Corvette Z06 could debut in Detroit.
Citing a reliable source, Jalopnik says the Corvette Z06 and C7.R race car will debut together at an upcoming auto show. The website goes on to speculate that both models will debut in the Motor City.
Little is known about the Z06 but previous reports have indicated it could keep its naturally-aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine. While the current model produces 505 bhp (377 kW), rumors suggest the new Z06 could have up to 600 bhp (447 kW) which would make it 38 bhp (24 kW) less powerful than the outgoing ZR1. If these numbers pan out, the model could easily accelerate from 0-60 mph in less than 3.7 seconds.

First C6 was 400hp. New C7 is 455hp. +14% hp. I dunno, but I don't see a ZO6 getting 600hp. More like 575hp (+14%). ZR1 might get 700hp. Or 727hp(14%)! Most likely not :P1 1

Reviews for In Repair LyricsPerformed by John Mayer
By Pages: 1 2 Current page No. 2/ 2
Add Your New Review About The Song
maybe these two songs go hand in hand. | Reviewer: k.c. | 2/25/08
I feel like this song is the almost like the aftermath of dreaming with a broken heart.....like this is what happens after you can "wake up and breathe again". Pretty much you have have accepted and mourned the end of a broken relationship and then finally you are able to focus on making sure the byproducts of that hurt are not going to seep into new relationships ect. there is much to be said about this song. I love it.
Amazing.. | Reviewer: Jessica | 2/4/08
that's what this song is, amazing. It's obvious that it's about hurting and trying to get over the hurt. You're pulling yourself back together, picking up the pieces of your life, repairing your heart. You know it'll never quite be the same, but you're trying anyways.
One of my favorites.
I love the last line. "I'm in repair, I'm not together, but I'm getting there."
I can relate, and I know a lot of other people can too. On so many levels, and so many different situation.
John Mayer is just wonderful.
For What It's Worth Again... | Reviewer: The Real | 1/10/08
I like this more than 'Dreaming With a Broken Heart'. It feels like he's dwelt on the feelings more. Given his feelings more thought than the very raw 'Dreaming...'. It feels more complete.
Kudos, sir. Bravo.
Perfect for a broken heart | Reviewer: arho | 11/12/07
It sucks when things end, and i'm feelin it right now, and the second half of continuum is perfect for me. heart of life, slow dancing in a burning room, dreaming with a broken heart, in repair, find another you...they work great.
in repair is a testament to what you miss and what you want to find, but you know things will never be the same as they were with that person
good when you're down | Reviewer: tedi | 8/30/07
this song is good for me, because I have screwed some things up in my life, and some people have done me wrong. and this song defines a lot. i love it.
yeahh. | Reviewer: kelly | 7/3/07
"heres a song about being fucked up and comming out of it." "when your a kid and you get a tennis ball to the nuts, its one of the worst feeling in the world. but all men will tell you theres no better feeling than when it stops hurting" quote from john him self about this song. so this song is about getting over something.
Been three years... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/3/07
... since my wife left me. Song sounds like it was written about my life now. John Lennon had nothing on JM.
In repair | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/31/07

Former Charlottesville City Council candidate James Halfaday is staying behind bars. He was back in court Tuesday after he was arrested for a second probation violation.
Last year, Halfaday was found guilty of election fraud after he used a false address to certify his candidacy in 2011. He spent 10 days in jail because of the election fraud charge, but was sentenced to more time after violating his probation.
Last February he was arrested for contacting his partner from jail after having been ordered not to as a condition of his probation. Halfaday was ordered to remain in jail until his probation could be transferred to Illinois, where his family lives and where he plans to move.
Tuesday, the court sealed the case file, which means the specifics of how Halfaday violated his probation for the second time are confidential. The commonwealth attorney's office - not the probation office - initiated the arrest. The reason for the seal and whether the case will remain under seal is unknown.
A public defender will represent Halfaday at his next court appearance on June 17.

A 10-month-old accidentally locked himself inside a hot car, and his mom says a 911 dispatcher didn't immediately send help.
A new economic impact study launched by Tucson's Visitors Bureau aims to measure how much revenue the Tucson Gem, Mineral and Fossil Showcase will bring to the city.
It will be the first comprehensive study in seven years; the last one conducted in 2007 showed a $100 million economic impact for the city of Tucson, according to Visit Tucson President Brent DeRaad.
DeRaad said his office has observed strong sales so far, adding that up to 50,000 visitors come to the Old Pueblo for the weeks-long treasure hunt. But measuring just how much they spend can be tricky.
"We're really trying to figure out not only what types of gems and beads they're buying but also how long are they staying? Was the gem show the primary reason they visited?" DeRaad said.
It was for Lynn Thompson, who traveled from Sierra Vista to visit the Pueblo Mineral and Gem Show at the Riverpark Inn downtown. Every year, Thompson brings her students from Berean Academy to buy stones.
"We're actually looking for things that they can make jewelry in class," Thompson said.
Repeat visitors like Thompson are just what the city hopes for.
"A lot of times in economic studies there will be a multiplier that looks at dollars that are re-circulated within the community," DeRaad said. "We're mostly interested in direct spending though. We just want to figure out with this event, is this the reason why visitors are coming, or is it just a complimentary thing to do?"
DeRaad's projection for 2014's results is more cautious, due to the recession years of 2008 and 2009.
"Once that hit, we lowered our estimate down to about $65 million just to be conservative on what that impact will be," he said.
But busy foot traffic inside the Riverpark Inn on Thursday was evidence of an uptick in business. The show manager said this is one of the best year's he's had, with 50 more exhibitors than last year.
DeRaad said Visit Tucson is working with Tucson-based research firm FMR Associates in the study and should have preliminary results six weeks after the showcase is over.
