Strindberg and Helium
No news, but i have to post something... I have already reported in my Swedish blog about these very funny films based on August Strindberg’s novel – or perhaps diary? – Inferno. Originally written in French, Inferno tells the story of the Swedish writer’s attempts to make gold out of lead and his persuasion that his neighbours try to harm him with electricity, and so on. (I believe it has greatly influenced the deliric parts of Ernesto Sabato’s classic novel Sobre héroes y tumbas, for example. They've got the same weirdly convincing voice.)
