And when it comes to the American DVDs, I always break off at the
moment when I figure out how they're going to give the story a happy
end after all. This dogged insistence on happy endings — I admire it
quite a lot. And I'm like everyone else. I'd rather watch a bad
American film than a bad Norwegian film.
