BEN HAMILTON

GIVEN OUR Danish-centric interest in news, I’m not sure we would have been able to use “The reign of Spain falls gamely in Ukraine”, even if the Italians had narrowly triumphed in Sunday’s Euro 2012 final, but that’s the thing about good headlines – they often depend on the unexpected. Like the time Inverness Caledonian Thistle beat Celtic – a shock result that produced “Super Caley go ballistic, Celtic are atrocious”. Coming up with that headline in the early, waking hours of Monday morning was my subconscious mind’s way of dealing with the loss that the end of a major football championship brings. But it needn’t have bothered – after all, what did Freud know? With Wimbledon climaxing this weekend, the British Open laying it on in a fortnight, and the Olympics coming at the end of the month, we’re spoilt for sport this summer.

Really, I sometimes wonder what I’d do without it. Then again, it hasn’t always been this way for armchair sports spectators. Go back 90 years, and the Olympics was a jolly for toffs and the World Cup a mere glint in Jules Rimet’s eye. Now I understand why jazz became so popular then – anything to escape the boredom of the ‘roaring’ 1920s. So it’s kind of interesting to see it emerging now the football’s over in the shape of Valby Summer Jazz (see G2 for details) and the Copenhagen Jazz Festival, to which we are dedicating four full pages this week (G47): a full run-down, or as much as we can do to cover ten days and almost a thousand concerts at 100-odd venues. But as much as the people of this city love jazz, they love their summerhouses more. For the rest of the month, it will be like the day after the Day of the Triffids every single day. And to reflect this mood, page G9 for the next five weeks will be running travel features, including trips to Oslo (which kicks off proceedings this week), Sweden, and even one to Asia. Who said we only had a Danish-centric interest in things?

Valby Summer Jazz

Prøvehallen, Porcelænstorvet, 2500 Valby & Betty Nansen Theatre, Edisonvej 10, 1856 Frederiksberg, starts Friday, ends 14 July; tickets: 100-230kr, www.billetlugen.dk; www.valbysummerjazz.com FOR THE FIRST two weeks of July, the sleepy Copenhagen suburb of Valby will be the gathering point for finger-clicking, coolcat jazz aficionados, as Valby Summer Jazz brings the exclusive New York jazz scene to these shores. Experience top names from the New York Blue Note Jazz Club at 22 concerts over ten days mixed with the best of Danish jazz, as well as late-night concerts with local rappers, DJs and other great musicians. The festival, organised by the Danish virtuoso saxophonist and composer Benjamin Koppel and the prominent American piano player Kenny Werner, takes place every year at the same time as the Copenhagen Jazz Festival. Within a few years it has established itself as one of Northern Europe’s most distinguished jazz festivals. Artists meet in unique ensembles that find new ways to blend, merge and rethink genres and sounds in jazz. The festival has taken on a New York concert style with two 80-minute concerts of no-breaks world-class music. Alongside established Danish artists such as Benjamin Koppel, organist Anders Koppel and drummer Jakob Andersen, come an impressive array of the hippest international stars. Drummer Brian Blade – who has worked together with names such as Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan and Herbie Hancock – will be here with the Brian Blade Fellowship on 8 July. Look out too, for percussionist Johnathan Blake and his incredible drums solos. Lee Konitz, one of the driving forces of Cool Jazz, is an experimental alto saxophonist who has released a number of avant-garde jazz albums. Even at the age of 84, he manages to sound fresher than ever and is much sought-after by younger musicians. Randy Brecker is a versatile American trumpeter and flugelhornist who has worked with names such as Charles Mingus, Bruce Springsteen, Lou Reed, Frank Zappa and Parliament. The concert on Monday night (9 July) promises to be a true masterclass. World-class guitarists at the festival include the legendary Jim Hall (Tuesday 10 July) and Julian Lage (Sunday 8 July). Hall is a guitarist who has been in vogue for seven decades. Described as the father of modern

Performance Tivoli Cabaret

Tivoli, Vesterbrogade 3, Cph V; ends Sep 22; performances Tue-Thu 20:00, Thu-Sat 20:30; Tickets: 315-415kr; duration: 180 mins, www.tivolicabaret.dk Complete with little round tables and singers who double as waiting staff, Cabaret at Tivoli is an evening of light-hearted kitsch entertainment. Incorporating stand-up comedy, magic, drag queens, sketches, opera and music medleys, this will be a fun variety show, whether you take advantage of the free bar or not. Most of the acts are in Danish, but the cheesy pop hits are in a language everyone can understand. EB

What’s that? Hawaiian noises. Banging on the bongoes likeTupac Manilla

jazz guitar, Hall changed the way jazz guitar sounded with his innovation, composition, and improvisation. Meanwhile, Lage, one of the most amazing jazz guitar talents in the world, is a former child prodigy whose flying fingers and jazz stylings will leave you distinctly breathless and overwhelmed. Scott Colley is a prolific American jazz double bassist, featuring on over 200 recordings to date. His remarkably empathetic skills, strong melodic sense and improvisational abilities have served him well in groups. In more recent years his skills as bandleader and composer have come into focus. The Czech founding bassist of the ground and soundbreaking Weather Report, Miroslav Ladislav Vitouš, is known for his strong rhythmic sense, innovative walking lines, and intensity and abandon as an improviser. Catch him together with Benjamin Koppel on Saturday (7 July). American jazz pianist Kenny Werner possesses a natural improvisational ability. His groundbreaking work on Improvisation - Effortless Mastery – Liberating the Master Musician Within has inspired a generation of musicians and artists. He will be performing throughout the festival with different ensembles. Closer to home, Marie Carmen Koppel is Denmark’s queen of soul and, on Wednesday (11 July), will perform the repertoire from her acclaimed first jazz release, on The Brooklyn Sessions.

Tivoli Pantomime Theatre

Tivoli, Vesterbrogade 3, Cph V; free after entry to Tivoli Tivoli’s pantomime series follows the adventures of Cassander, who lives alone with his beautiful daughter, Columbine, in old Copenhagen. Cassander’s servant, Pierrot, is a clown. Cassander’s adversary is Harlequin, a charming, masked bandit with empty pockets who loves Columbine and knows many wizards and fairies.

The Unfortunate Suitor

ends 26 Aug Magic is involved when Cassander tries to marry Columbine off to a man who isn’t Harlequin.

Pierrot’s Misfortunes

ends 5 Sep Cassander has chosen yet another suitor for Columbine, this time an old, wealthy man. While Harlequin is enlisting the help of a fairy, Pierrot is making life at home very difficult with his antics.

A popular and emotional concert is sure to be one of the eclectic Bazaar’s last ever performances. Featuring the talents of Anders Koppel (hammond organ), Peter Bastian (clarinet), and Flemming Quist Møller (percussion), the band has been part of the Danish jazz scene for almost 40 years, but is now set to break up at the end of the year. Whatever you do, don’t forget your dancing shoes for the exuberant Mames Babagenush on 14 July. It will be where the past meets the present as Jewish dance music is united with new waves of modern music – a fresh blend of musical genres that appeals to both the heart and the feet. While Avishai Cohen (trumpet) and Omer Avital (bass), who are performing on 13 July, are both familiar figures on the New York scene where they regularly thrill audiences at the Big Apple’s many famous jazz clubs. The final Friday and Saturday late nights (13 and 14 July) are aimed at the younger generation with current artists like Al Agami, Pede B and Shaka Loveless mixing it up with Denmark’s incredibly gifted Koppel family in over two nights of amazing improvised hip-hop, electronica, rap and dancehall. There comes a time in every music lover’s life when jazz takes over the senses – why wait? Valby Summer Jazz is guaranteed to release your inner hipster, flipster and finger poppin’ daddio. Be there or be square.

Pierrot in Dyrehaven

ends 29 Aug Singing girls, two Pierrots and a dancing horse are just some of the strange things to be found in this pantomime about a visit to Dyrehaven. Mrs Sorensen picks a fiancé for Columbine, but as always, Harlequin disrupts any plans with the help of another fairy.

Harlequin Skeleton

Aug 21-Sep 19 Working as a waiter is not the best way to win Columbine’s hand, so Harlequin seeks advice. After a complicated plan involving doctors and dressing up as a skeleton, the curtain falls when the two lovers are reunited with the help of an adventure fairy.

Cassander as a Cooper

Sep 6-22 No more fairies – this time, a forest troll helps Harlequin and Columbine get together. SM

6 - 12 July 2012 Try Karriere for sheer class Karriere Bar

Flæsketorvet 57, 1711 Cph V; open Thu 16:00-24:00, Fri 16:0004:00, Sat 18:00-4:00, restaurant is open Thu-Sat 18:00-22:00, three courses with cocktails: 345kr; 3321 5509; www.karrierebar.com AFTER DIAMONDS, cocktails are probably a girl’s best friend. And cocktails are what Karriere Bar does best. Tucked into a converted slaughterhouse in Kødbyen, the meatpacking district, the restaurant has held onto some remnants from its bloodier days. Hooks in the ceiling are a silent reminder of what it was once used for, though the brightly-lit, spacious room is no longer a site of carnage but a bustling room where the sounds of countless conversations blend in and out with music provided by the house DJ-producer duo, Traplite. Walking into Karriere Bar is like entering a modern art exhibition. After taking a few seconds to adjust to the dimmed lighting, your eyes will fall upon a long metallic bar, chairs that look like they should have ‘Do Not Sit’ placards hanging off them, and lightbulbs draped over oval sheets of metal hanging low over colourful wooden tables. Despite the trendy surroundings, we felt wel-

comed immediately as we were led to our table and seated on the forbidding chairs (which were actually quite comfortable). As we pored over the menus, a bowl containing two pieces of warm, dark rye bread baked in the shape of cupcakes appeared at our table, accompanied by a slate slab with a cold chunk of salty butter. We placed our orders: my dining partner opted for the Roasted duck breast with baked rhubarb and wasabi and a side of quinoa salad with fresh cucumber, melon and mint. Dining out as a vegetarian in Denmark is tough, especially if, like me, you don’t eat fish. This ruled out all the starters and mains for me, so I chose two side dishes. I went for the same Quinoa salad as my partner, and new potatoes with parsley butter. I ordered the Voyeur Baby cocktail to accompany my meal, while my partner had the Red Cow. The drinks arrived first, in tall, frosty glasses filled to the brim and topped with mountains of ice. Mine came without a straw, and our waitress told me it was so that I could “get the full experience” by sipping from the glass. She was right – the celery ice on top of fresh apple juice mixed with lime, mint and green chartreuse was delicious, and a refreshing start to the night ahead. The Red Cow was just as good. It was like a mojito with a ginger

Kunsthal Nikolaj, Nikolaj Plads 10, Cph K; ends Aug 5; open Tue-Sun 12:00-17:00, Thu 12:00-21:00; www.nikolajkunsthal.dk This exhibition marks the culmination of six years of study for 27 young artists from the Royal Danish Art Academy. BF

On the left we have Carrot orange & kisses dessert with a Buck’s Rum Cup cocktail, and on the right, a Red Cow and a Voyeur Baby

kick, and the heat of the ginger and aquavit clashed perfectly with the cool drink. Then came the food. My partner described the duck as an orgasm in her mouth. The wasabi complemented the duck, and its slight toughness forced her to eat it slowly, savouring each mouthful. The graininess of the quinoa, paired with crunchy cucumber and juicy melon, created a novel fusion of textures. The potatoes were warm and cooked just right, served in a small bowl swimming in melted butter flavoured with parsley. Next, it was time for more cocktails, this time with dessert. There were two desserts on the menu, so we ordered both. The

waitresses were ready with suggestions, helping us choose drinks to enrich the flavours of our desserts. Rhubarb rhubarb rhubarb was a creamy pudding and a small cake, topped with foam – all rhubarb, of course. The pudding was cold and creamy, and was complemented by the slight acidity of the foam. This dessert was paired with the Rhubarb Collins cocktail. The fizziness and the fresh aftertaste of strawberries made it one I’ll be craving all summer, and eating the alcohol-infused strawberries was a scrumptious treat. The other dessert, Carrot orange & kisses, was carrot ice cream served with meringue wafers and a small orange tart driz-

zled with a tangy orange sauce. The ice cream had a pleasant, distinctly carrotty taste. This came with Buck’s Rum Cup, an orange and rum cocktail with almond flavouring. Though rum was the dominant flavour, berries and orange rounded off each gulp. The last cocktail. This time, we decided to be adventurous and chose the keyword cocktails. You choose three words from choice of aromatic or refreshing, strong or weak, dark spirit or light spirit – and a bartender whips up a drink. I chose aromatic, strong and light spirit, and ended up with a drink called The Journalist. Boy, was it strong – the mix of gin, orange liquor and sweet and dry vermouth caught me off-guard.

While the prices at Karriere Bar & Restaurant may seem daunting at first, a three-course menu with cocktails for 345kr is a great deal, and with food and drinks as mouth-watering as these, it’s worth every penny. At 22:00, the music goes up in preparation of the night ahead, and the bar is overrun with 20-somethings downing drinks and flirting with bartenders. It’s the ideal place to eat and drink summer nights away with a group of close friends, while speakers thump out heavy bass lines and the sun never quite sets in the distance.

6 - 12 July 2012

When jazz takes over Ten days and as many reasons to cancel your holidays

CITIES HAVE a tendency to casually insert their name before the word ‘festival’ to enjoy a branding boost. Yet at many major music festivals, the connection between city and music is unseen, unfelt and marginalised to the outskirts. Several jewels may be displayed at central locations, some happy banners may proclaim a few famous artists, but the festival is largely unnoticed by the general public. Copenhagen and its jazz festival are nothing like this norm. Now in its 34th year of delivering ten days of stunningly spectacular music and memories as one of the preeminent jazz festivals in the world, the Copenhagen Jazz Festival becomes jazz and jazz becomes the city. From July 6 to July 15, more than 1,000 concerts will take place at over 100 venues, from sun-soaked cobblestoned streets to hallowed music halls. Several thousand jazz musicians will groove into the city, many staying a few extra days to listen to music and see old friends. Last year, over a quarter of a million people visited the city during the festival, joining locals in celebrating Copenhagen as the jazziest spot on the planet. The festival does a fine job of offering a diverse array of choices for music lovers. The two major themes are the ‘Concert Hall Series’ and ‘21st Century Jazz’ in which a majority of the headliners play to packed houses at some of the city’s finest venues. But it would be a mistake to assume that this is all the

jazz festival has to offer. Free concerts abound, outdoors and indoors. There is ‘Jazz for Kids’; ‘...something else’; jazz at churches and ‘Jazz by the Sea’. It is a democratic festival where any club, café, public space, concert hall – pretty much any spot that can squeeze in a piano – can be a part of the festival. The Copenhagen Jazz Festival is like a free public utility, not a profit driven enterprise. It is funded by the state and private sponsors, and it provides a booster shot of jazz that enlivens the scene all year long. The creative mind behind the jazz festival, musical director Kenneth Hansen, has worked hard to keep the spirit of jazz – balancing new trends with the 34 -yea-old festival’s original ideals. His programme is unique and wide-reaching, and he believes that jazz is good for you. “You can get inspired by the essence of jazz,” said Hansen. “Jazz is a lifestyle. Looking for new things, evolving, improvising, being open, going in new directions and also taking chances. It’s okay to fail – this is a big thing about jazz. Everyone and everything is so concerned about money, and I think jazz says to go for it, it’s okay to fail, you may find something along the way.” The best way to experience the festival? Grab the official programme (150 pages of details and listings sold throughout the city), check online at www.jazz. dk, or download the festival’s official app – and plan a few choice shows, but allow time to wander and spontaneously soak up a city immersed in jazz. In addition to the main themes, here (see right) are a few choice festival selections. JOHNNY NIEMANN

TOP PICK Vijay Iyer Trio Statens Museum for Kunst, Sølvgade 48-50, Cph K; Friday July 6, 15:00; free adm You are cordially invited to the official opening of the Copenhagen Jazz Festival: Vijay Iyer and his trio. A vibrant young pianist and composer will perform inside a glorious atrium at a world-class art museum. Price: nothing. In the past this opening affair has been played open-air with fine musicians, but never with an artist of Iyer’s stature. “Some would find Vijay Iyer a challenging artist to listen to, but we wanted to make a statement, give it as a gift: here is one of the most progressive artists in modern jazz for free,” said Hansen.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED Jazz for Kids Various venues To ensure your child has musical taste and to provide them with some entertainment, visit the Jazz for Kids theme. These free, fun, mostly outdoor concerts have become a staple for families. This public service takes place every festival day at the Østre Anlæg next to Statens Museum for Kunst, and at other venues. Check the schedule for the complete listings. ... something else Det Kongelige Danske Haveselskab, Frederiksberg Runddel, Frederiksberg; tickets: 160-200kr, 7026 3267, www.billetlugen.dk The Songs of Joni Mitchell, Monday July 9, 18:00 Teitur, Tuesday July 10, 18:00 Naja Rosa, Wednesday July 11, 18:00 Hymns from Nineven, Thursday July 12, 18:00 Mikael Simpson, Friday July 13, 18:00 The finest venue of the festival also boasts the most unique programme ‘...something else’. This is a recent theme created by the jazz festival that focuses on music that would not traditionally be considered jazz, yet shares a commitment to improvisation and musicianship. In the past these concerts have generally been performed indoors, but for the first time the new meets the old and this series is performed at Det Kongelige Danske Haveselskabs Have, a historic and glorious garden in the heart of Frederiksberg. It is a perfect place to enjoy a picnic, sunshine and some innovative sounds.

New era at a new Jazzhouse 21st Century Jazz Copenhagen Jazzhouse, Niels Hemmingsens Gade 10, Cph K; tickets from www.billetlugen.dk; www.jazzhouse.dk FRESH, innovative musicians fill the stage during the 21st Century Jazz series at the newly renovated and spiffed-up Copenhagen Jazzhouse. Considered to be the country’s national stage of jazz, in recent years the Jazzhouse has become intimately entwined with the jazz festival – first receiving programming partnership, and just last year falling under the stewardship and direction of the festival’s experienced general manager, Signe Lopdrup. The collaboration is natural: the bright beacon of the jazz festival has found an anchor at the city’s foremost jazz club. A great challenge was presented to this new partnership when monsoonlike rainfall poured down on the city on the second day of the 2011 Copenhagen Jazz Festival. Concerts were delayed as floods occurred in parts of the city after a deluge of more than 150mm (six inches) of water. After cancelling the concerts immediately after the storm, the Jazzhouse went on with their regular scheduled programme, but discovered after the festival that the water damage was so se-

vere that a complete renovation would be required. The doors reopened this June 1 to a refreshed club that lives up to its name as the country’s top place for its most beloved music. “Everything has changed. We have moved the stage and have a new bar. It is a new room and a new experience,” said Lopdrup. “The Jazzhouse is so important for Copenhagen’s jazz scene. We think of ourselves as a cultural institution, presenting a modern and progressive Danish and international jazz scene in Copenhagen and becoming the primary jazz club in Scandinavia.” Nothing has changed in the Jazzhouse’s programming, dubbed ‘21st Century Jazz’, during the jazz festival: it is still the top place to enjoy the best artists in the most intimate environment. “We have booked a programme that is looking forward and not just celebrating the past,” said Lopdrup. “We want to make a statement with this programme at the festival. This is jazz that is moving forward, not just how it once was.” Read on (see right) for a top choice and a couple of highlights among the many great offerings if your jazz dance card is filling up quickly.

TOP PICK Joe Lovano/Dave Douglas Quintet Sunday July 8 and Monday July 9, 21:00; 270kr It is a special opportunity to be able to see two of jazz’s finest musicians and band leaders at such an intimate setting. Lovano and Douglas have each commanded concert halls and received plenty of recognition. Lovano has over 30 albums under his belt and won a Grammy award during his illustrious career, yet his saxophone remains as seductively powerful as they come. Douglas is innovative and fresh on the trumpet, garnering awards and recognition from near and far. Together they lead a dynamic quintet for a two-night stay at the Jazzhouse that promises to be one of the festival’s best bets.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED Ambrose Akinmusire Friday July 6, 21:00; 180kr That is the thing about the Jazzhouse – it attracts the best young musicians in the industry. It is never enough to just accept the credit handed out by the critics and merely listen to the artists’ albums – you need to be there in person to find out if a musician really has what it takes. Everyone says that Ambrose Akinmusire is the real deal and therefore his concert alongside his quintet is an anticipated event. This 30-year-old trumpeter is on the rise, and catching him at the Jazzhouse this evening is a decision that you’ll look back at with pride. Neneh Cherry and the Thing Tuesday July 10, 21:00; 270kr The singer Neneh Cherry achieved fame in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s for her forays into hip-hop and soul. In her musical career she has met and collaborated with artists in many spectrums, yet she returns to her jazz roots (her stepfather is the great cornetist Don Cherry) for a new collaboration with a Swedish/Norwegian jazz group, The Thing. Together they have released an acclaimed album called The Cherry Thing and their free jazz improvisations range from the music of Don Cherry to Ornette Coleman, to the Velvet Underground.

Taking it easy in a cool sea breeze Jazz by the Sea Kulturhuset Islands Brygge, Islands Brygge 18, Cph S; tickets: 8233 4780, k-ib@kff.kk.dk THE SOUNDS of faraway coastlines will wash onto Denmark’s shores this July when the Copenhagen Jazz Festival comes to town. This year ‘Jazz by the Sea’ will explore music from every corner of the globe, featuring acts from Cuba, Africa and the United States to name a few. The music in this category oozes feeling and delves

deep into the heart of some of these countries’ oppressive histories. ‘Ninety Miles (from Miami to Havana)’ is one performance that exemplifies the fusion of different national jazz traditions, revealing the interconnectedness of jazz from the Caribbean, New Orleans and Cuba. Cuban jazz is commonly seen as a combination of European and African culture, as the music was created largely by Spanish immigrants and African slaves brought to the island. The Africans who worked on the sugar plantations, and their de-

The singer has won several local awards, including ‘Best Jazz Vocal Album’ in 2007 and 2010 at the Danish Music Awards, and the ‘Danish Radio Jazz Award’ in 2009. Armed with a warm and expressive voice, and an impressive vocal range to boot, Eeg will impress jazz-goers with her onstage charisma and class.

While they brought drums into the mix, the Spaniards added some flamenco flavour with the guitar and most importantly, European music notation and composition techniques. In recent years, the music has drawn on influences from other musical genres and different countries. But the exchange of ideas can go both ways, as seen in the work of the New Orleans’ Nicholas Payton, Puerto Rica’s David Sánchez and America’s Stefon Harris (see listing below). From Havana to another coastal city, La-

gos, Tony Allen invites ‘Jazz by the Sea’ listeners along for a wonderful Afrobeat experience as he presents ‘Black Series – from Detroit to Lagos’ (details below). Afrobeat is a frenetic combination of jazz, highlife and the funky sounds of the ‘70s. This frenetic style of music will transport those at the open air Kulturhuset to faraway Nigeria. No matter how much you loathe dancing in public, this brand of jazz is guaranteed to get your muscle fibres twitching to the beat. ELISE BEACOM

Miami and Havana have a strong history – as many as 14,000 Cuban children were sent to Miami by their parents in the early 1960s – soon after Fidel Castro came to power. Combining jazz traditions from both countries, New Orleans-born trumpeter Nicholas Payton, Puerto Rican saxophonist David Sánchez, and New York vibraphonist Stefon Harris form a vibrant onstage partnership.

Shorter by name, but a giant of jazz Wayne Shorter Quartet The Royal Danish Theatre, Gamle Scene, Kongens Nytorv, Cph K; Tuesday July 10, 20:00; tickets 150550kr, 3369 6969; www.kglteater.dk THE COPENHAGEN Jazz Festival traditionally bestows the title of ‘Giant Jazz’ on a few choice concerts. Though they have done away with this, their longest running theme, there’s one man who would have little problem carrying that mantle: the brilliant saxophonist and one of jazz’s greatest composers, Wayne Shorter. Now 78, Shorter’s career has seen him perform with some of the most famous names in jazz’s great book. He grew up in Newark, New Jersey listening to Thelonious Park and Charlie Parker on the radio, and he would cut school to go and see Dizzy Gillespie and other jazz artists playing in New York. But it was not long until Shorter started etching his own name into jazz lore. He joined Art Blakey’s classic group, the Jazz Messengers, eventually becoming the group’s musical director. The next stop was Miles Davis’s ‘second’ great quintet (after John Coltrane, that is), a

group that like the first became one of the most influential in jazz history. Davis called Shorter his “intellectual musical catalyst”, and Shorter went on to compose some of Davis’s most famous numbers: ‘ESP’, ‘Nefertiti’, ‘Footprints’ and many others. Shorter has played all over the spectrum, creating his own spectrum along the way. He is a co-founder of the great fusion group, Weather Report, and he has recorded with both Joni Mitchell and Carlos Santana, yet still remains fiercely independent and interested in exploring music’s great depths. Kenneth Hansen, the musical director of the Copenhagen Jazz Festival, is impressed by Shorter’s continued virtuosity. “He has a very strong intuition,” he tells InOut. “He has become very condensed in his expression – so everything he says is strong and very frail also. You feel like there is something in his tone that sounds like it is a struggle for him to say, but that he must say it. Like he is carving life’s truths into a tree when he is playing.” Shorter has played the jazz festival a handful of times, most recently in 2008 at the new Opera House. This year he is returning to Copenhagen’s most regal stage, the Royal Danish Theatre’s Gamle Scene. Hansen, while acknowledging that an evening of Wayne Shorter on the saxophone could never be bad,

thinks that this year’s setting is more appropriate for Shorter: “You will feel the music from the start, feel his tone – everything will be more up close. It will be a more physical performance from the start.” Casual jazz listeners may be surprised to discover just how many of Shorter’s compositions, both as a sideman and a bandleader, are standards of the genre. As a bandleader, you can’t go wrong with two of his more recent albums (both of which are Grammy winners): Beyond the Soundbarrier and Alegria, while Speak No Evil and Juju, two essential classics from the 1960s, are also recommended, as is his work with Art Blakey – ‘Three Blind Mice’ and ‘The Big Beat’ – and Miles Davis: ‘E.S.P.’, ‘Miles Smiles’, ‘Nefertiti’ and ‘Bitches Brew’. Shorter has suffered tragedy in his life, losing his daughter to a seizure and later his wife and niece in a plane crash as they were flying to see him perform. He spoke about the loss of his wife in a 1998 New York Times interview. “There’s a drive here,” Shorter said, pointing to his chest. “And it’s coming from her. When someone very close to you dies, a lot of people might cut off what they’re doing or commit suicide or whatever. But eventually you start to listen to every fibre of life. The eternity of life is revealed, and you’re celebrating it through music rather than using your own life to celebrate music. My life is not music. I am not what I do, I do what I am.” JOHNNY NIEMANN

Each wonder

is a Colossus of Notes Concert Hall Events 2012 Various venues in Cph K & C THE MOST beautiful concert hall in the city, The Royal Theatre Old Stage, and the city’s dynamic new space, Koncerthuset, are the settings for the jazz festival’s premiere theme: the Concert Hall Events Series. Up until last year, the main theme, and the festival’s longest running theme, was called ‘Giant Jazz’. Artists such as Sonny Rollins, Ornette Coleman, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock and Keith Jarrett have performed under this banner. However, the name itself has proven to be problematic as critics have questioned if the artists are ‘giant’ or ‘jazz’ enough. Liberated from this label, musical director Kenneth Hansen has

still pieced together a prestigious array of artists who brilliantly lead the festival’s programme. However Hansen has not followed in the direction of many other jazz festivals which have pop, rock or hip-hop artists as their headliners. “It is important to believe in the great jazz names like Wayne Shorter, Sonny Rollins or Keith Jarrett, and that they are the best you can present,” said Hansen. “You have to believe in this. If you start inviting pop and rock names, then they become the biggest thing, and the jazz names you should have believed in become secondary. The audience recognises that you don’t believe in it anymore, and the jazz festival is no longer a jazz festival.” JOHNNY NIEMANN

bossa nova in July The Sound of Brazil Various venues in Cph V ‘THE SOUND of Brazil’ is one of the newest additions to the Copenhagen Jazz Festival, replacing last year’s Sound of Africa. As the name suggests, the concerts will bring the music of Brazil to a venue right here in Copenhagen. Brazilian music is the product of a vast range of influences from its colonial era – the 16th to the 19th century – including various African music traditions, European music traditions, Jewish music and Arabic music. Today Brazilian music continues to absorb the characteristics of international music, transforming them into a sound that is distinctly Brazilian.

from Brazilian jazz and an important part of standard jazz repertoires, is a musical style that must be experienced live. This year, the jazz festival gives audiences the opportunity not only to hear bossa nova live but also performed by Brazilian artists – each of whom will be playing their own distinct styles of the genre. With its syncopated two-four time and emphasis on rhythm, the music is also perfect for dancing, so make sure you bring a partner along.

TOP 5 PLACES TO SWIM

CYCLE LANES

BELLEVUE BEACH: Strandvejen 340, 2900 Hellerup; free adm; www.bellevuestrandbad.dk

Look out for the cycle lanes. They’re everywhere, and not pavements, particularly around Tivoli.

Young Danes ﬂock to this beach and recreational area in the summer.

TIVOLI RESTAURANTS

AMAGER BEACH PARK: Amager Strandvej 100, Cph S; free adm; www.amager-strand.dk This sprawling but well-planned beach has a sunny dune or activity for everyone including an ocean swimming structure and a long promenade.

Choose carefully because while Tivoli is worth a visit, it has some of the worst restaurants in town.

SHOP OPENING TIMES Most shops are closed on Sunday, unless it’s the ﬁrst or the last of the month. And they stop selling alcohol in the supermarkets (hold on to your empties as each bottle is worth a krone - enough to buy half a plastic bag) at 17:00 on Saturdays.

BAVNEHØJ SWIMMING POOL: Bavnehøj, Enghavevej 90, Cph SV

CYCLING Use lights when dark, stay oﬀ the pavement, and don’t run red lights. All three will land you a hefty ﬁne.

DANGERS Don’t worry about the beggars and druggies. They’re harmless. Avoid places with biker aﬃnities. Walk down Istedgade on the right (from the central station) and you will be propositioned.

BODEGAS

ØSTERBRO BEACH: Svanemøllen Bay, Cph Ø; free adm With its gently sloping gradient, this attractive artiﬁcial beach provides even small children a safe place to bathe. Stroll along the 130 metre-long pier while the kids splash about in the sun.

Buy a two-zone clipcard at the airport. Three of the ten clips will get you and one other to Copenhagen Central Station and it will save you 50 percent over ten clips.

THE OLD SQUARE: Gammeltorv, 1457 Cph K Directly in the centre of the walking streets and surrounded by famous shops and restaurants, this sunny fountain square is the epicentre of any city experience.

What happens in Oslo, stays in Oslo ...

THERE ARE many reasons to take the ferry to Oslo (a day out in one of Europe’s most beautiful capital cities, two nights of passion in touch with the rhythmic movements of the sea, a buffet crawling with fresh seafood that will never run out, and a means of escape from the Danish tax authorities), but few are more enjoyable than getting on board the Rock Cruise, a (normally) Friday night concert at which the sea will sway you in one direction and the music will knock you right back in the other. Now in its seventh year, the Rock Cruise season offers several concerts, from late spring to early autumn, two nights on board and seven hours to spend, however you wish, in Oslo. While the next one is sold out – Kim Larsen on Monday August 6; check internet forums for tickets (998kr) – the concert featuring lyrical rockers Ulige Numre on September 14 is not.

The boat, the beautiful backdrops and the bassist: they all caught our our reporter’s eye

baby carriage-shoving crowd boarding the ferry weren’t what you’d call your typical head-banging, stage-diving, binge drinking audience. It left me with an ambivalent feeling. What is this precisely? I know rock enjoyed its hey day in the 1980s, but did it still attract the same crowd? Most of the passengers seem to be either middle-aged or parents with toddlers and the occasional moody teenager. You have to look long to spot a person wearing less than four different colours, not to mention a pair of skinnies or Raybans. But it doesn’t discourage and we settle into the mission to find the missing link over a few deckside drinks at one of the boat’s bars. The ferry hasn’t left the harbour yet, but nothing was going to dissuade us from our first port of call. As the ferry leaves, the deck fills up as others come out to enjoy the sun and the view with a cold beer or a fruit cup.

Street Art NEW Lindevangsparken, Finsensvej/Dalgas Boulevard, Frederiksberg; Thu & Fri 13:0015:00; free adm; ages 10-18 You probably won’t find a municipality willing to teach children how to create street art outside Denmark. Frederiksberg has arranged this event – hopefully, none of the kids attending will redecorate the S-trains. SM Open workshop NEW Kulturhuset Toldkammeret, Havnepladsen 1, Helsingør; every Sat 10:30-14:00, ends 11 Aug; tickets 30kr Kids can bring their adults to the children’s culture centre. There will be watercolours to paint with, other creative projects and lunch at the cosy café. Kids under seven must be accompanied by an adult. SM The Hero in the Fridge Marionetteatret i Kongens Have, Kronprinsessegade 21, Cph K; Fri-Sun, Wed-Thu 14:00 & 15:00; free adm Bring your kids to watch a 25-minute puppetry play about a round little boy who cannot keep up with the other children at school, and is constantly teased. After a dream about being sucked into the refrigerator, he returns to school, and ultimately becomes a hero. SM

Rock or not, the mood is good. And when the sun goes down, the ferry is packed with places to pass the time – in case your cabin should trigger your inner claustrophobe – including lots of bars, restaurants, clubs, a tax-free shop, casino and a pool. On our first night, we dine at the 7 Seas dinner buffet, which has more or less everything your stomach could desire. You eat as much as you can – who doesn’t at this kind of place – but there’s a time limit to your reservation so this is not the place to engage in long timeconsuming conversations, or at least not if you want to have time for the dessert table. The couple dining next to us – who have been on the ferry more than 50 times and therefore know their way around – tell us that we can get ice cream (instead of, or in addition to, the grown ups’ cheese and fancy cakes) from the kids’ area. And it’s while we’re

Outdoors Football Golf Lerskovvej 13, Hårlev; open April-Oct, tee off Mon-Tue & Thu 15:00-19:00, Wed 18:0019:00, Fri-Sun 10:00-19:00; tickets: over-15s 100kr, under-15s 50kr (100kr on Sat); 2015 5086, hansen@fodboldgolfen.dk; www.fodboldgolfen.dk Your kids will love this football golf course 10km south of Køge almost as much as you. The game is played on a golf course with a football, and like crazy golf, most of the holes have obstacles to negotiate. As well as the customary par 3-5s, there are also a few 2s (as short as 17m) and 6s (as long as 150m). But while a powerful kick is an advantage on some holes, this is primarily a game of finesse and accuracy. BH Nature and the Family West Amager Nature Centre; Granatvej 3-13, Kastrup; open every day 10:00-17:00; free adm; www.naturcentervestamager.dk Come and explore the birds and the bees in the animal world and the diversity of nature in Amager. Find out how and why animals and plants live so differently and what methods different species use to impress and attract the opposite sex. There are children’s stories about different plants and animals, games to play. JF

Our intrepid team Mike and Malene: their first port of call was the bar

struggling with the soft ice cream machine that the missing link finally enters the room: the band Reptile Youth. Not that they notice, but it’s not the best of first impressions on the band we want to interview later. They’re a Danish post-pop/punk band who were originally a duo called Reptile and Retard (before they had ever worked with an adult, presumably) consisting of singer Mads Damsgaard Kristiansen and bass player Esben Valløe. They unsurprisingly changed their name and added drummer Emil Vissing Christiensen and guitarist Mads Bergland. They head for the buffet, while we finish our ice creams and get ready for the concert. The Heaven 11 club is the venue and it isn’t big! Straightaway, the band creates a vibe to whisk you away on a journey within a cruise – so much so that you forget you’re on a boat, and that’s pretty extraordinary.

Bakken Bakken, Dyrehavevej 62, Klampenborg; open Mon-Thu 09:00-16:30, Fri 09:00-16:30; free adm; www.bakken.dk The oldest amusement park in the world has plenty to amuse the kids and give the family a great day out. Located on the doorstep of the woods of Dyrehaven the park is packed with rides of all kinds as well as restaurants and bars. And best of all, it’s free to get in! Copenhagen Zoo Cph Zoo, Roskildevej 28, Frederiksberg; open daily 10:0016:00; Tickets: adults 110kr, under-12s 50kr; www.zoo.dk As well as all the normal goings-on, activities include pony rides, visiting African Pygmy goats, getting close to snakes, and the opportunity to watch a cow being milked every day at 15:20. JF Summer Activities in Christiana Christiana, Christianshavn, Cph K; Sun 10:00-17:00; donations accepted Have a great day out with the whole family in the unique setting of the free-town of Christiana. Bring your picnic blanket and sit in the sunshine as your kids run around the lake, listen to stories and attend creative workshops. There will also be a bonfire, pancake tossing and twist-bread making. The summer programme of events is not just for residents of Christiana, so everybody is welcome. CP

The lead singer jumps around and climbs the handrails – more than enough bravado to rock this boat. Unfortunately though, the concert has to end, but the night has only begun and when the band manager asks: “Do you know Mads?”, the prompt and obvious response is “Yes!”, and we continue partying in the great company of the band. Adventures ensue and we partake in a few drinks, and even some games, and are treated to a spontaneous concert together with the house band in the Columbus Nightclub. Fortunately for this reviewer, Mike got the short straw: the return journey. Let’s just say he’s a gentleman, in every possible way, and made his decision when he saw what state I was in on Saturday morning. Besides he’s younger than me and has the kind of stamina that few of us are still blessed with once we hit our mid-20s.

PLAY Project: Outdoor Fun Various locations in Cph; 200600kr per season; www.playprojekt.dk The outdoor activities for children (aimed at 10-16 year-olds) include rafting, climbing, kayaking, GPS activities, water activities and rollerskating.he programme is not limited to only Danish speakers and you are welcome to join and participate any time.

Bredekærgård city farm Tranegilde Bygade 4, Ishøj; Free adm; Open daily 10.0017.00; Free Adm; 4373 6761; www.bredekaergaard.dk Bredekærgård is a city farm near Ishøj station (23 mins from Central Station, and then a 20-min walk) that is funded by Ishøj Municipality. While the 60 animals at the farm are hardly unique – horses, pigs, cows, chickens, rabbits and goats – visitors are invited to get up close and personal, particularly with the goats, which you can roam with, and the rabbits which can be petted in convenient pens. There is no shop, but coffee and cakes are available on Sunday between 1 and 4 pm in the summer, when there are often jazz events. BH Frederiksborg Castle Frederiksborg Castle, Hillerød; open daily 10:00-17:00; free adm; www.frederiksborgslot.dk Situated in Hillerød north of Copenhagen and surrounded by the castle lake and a Baroque Garden, Frederiksborg Castle is an ideal place to spend the day with the family. The castle offers cultural experiences as well as scenic walks and boat tours. The caste is the largest Rennaissance castle in Scandinavia and was built in the early 17 century by King Christian IV.

Food & Drink Tante T Viktoriagade 6, 1655 Cph V; Mon-Sat 10:00-22:00, Sun 10:00-21:00; 3210 3610; www. tante-t.dk At everybody’s favourite Vesterbro auntie, few can resist sampling the cheery, old days atmosphere and the finest cakes in the city. On an average day the shop serves six cakes of its 30 plus recipes, courtesy of the owners’ mother, a baker of some renown. The sponges are spectacularly light. Even the brunsviger, which looks doughy, has a finesse so striking its principal ingredient must be helium. The tea’s not bad either. Served in a flamboyantly wide cup, pouring the milk in is quite cinematic, like the end of Zabriskie Point and Star Wars all rolled into one. But the star of the show must be the scones. They come in plain, chocolate chip or dried fruit varieties, and it is hard to imagine having a better cream tea in this city. BH Cornish Pasty House Studiestræde 8; 1455 Cph K; 3313 2103; www.cornishpastyhouse.dk The pasties are shipped directly from their birthplace in Cornwall, England’s wild southwestern tip, and baked in the shop ovens before serving.

While the waiter kindly gave us a Tour de Plate, naming the delicious looking specialties, our mouths watered so badly we were tempted to shush him and swallow it all at once. Nothing was mediocre on this plate: the fig nice and juicy, the yoghurt with honey was topped with perfectly roasted almonds, the spicy roasted potatoes perfect with the Italian salami. SL

How the Webb master has respun Spider-Man LYDIA DEICHMANN

The Amazing Spider-Man (11) Dir: Marc Webb; US action, 2012, 136 mins; Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Rhy Ifans, Dennis Leary, Martin Sheen, Sally Field

Premiered July 3 Playing nationwide

HIS ISN’T a sequel, it’s a remake! Of a film that was only released in 2002. And director Marc Webb didn’t do himself any favours branding this film ‘amazing’. Talk about setting yourself up for a fall! But in true Spidey style, the elasticated webs are as dependably strong as ever, springing the aptlynamed Webb into the Hollywood mainstream with a reinvention every bit as good as Christopher Nolan’s Batman 2.0. The Amazing Spider-Man was originally intended as the fourth instalment of the Spider-Man series, with original director Sam Raimi still in charge. But when he bailed, Webb – the director of the brilliant 500 Days of Summer, who even looks a bit like Nolan – decided to take us back to the 2002 original. The basic storyline is the same: geeky nerd at school develops powers, fights crime and wins over high-school crush, before a showdown with the villain. And, unlike Batman Begins, there is the same degree of humour with Parker (Garfield) trying to deal with his newly-discovered powers after being bitten by a spider. It’s also better thought out: for example, Peter creates his own artificial webs instead of just being able to spout them out like in the original. The beginning of the movie introduces Peter’s parents, so unlike in the other movies, you are given an insight

“Oh gawd, you’re not the puny one who rides Seabiscuit are you? Would it help if I had hooves?” into his childhood, and it adds more mystery to their death. Being raised by his Uncle Ben (Sheen) and Aunt May (Field), Peter grows up trying to find out what happened to his parents, and in doing so we meet the villain of the story, Dr Curt Connors (Ifans), his father’s former work colleague. He turns into the Green Lizard (instead of the Green Goblin), an ultimately scarier and more effective adversary. Peter is a shy, mumbling skateboarding teen, while quirky Gwen Stacy (Stone) replaces the modest girlnext-door Mary Jane Watson. They are cooler – here’s a Spider-Man the girls

will actually want to sleep with – and have a much more believable chemistry. Garfield, already a household name in his home country Britain thanks to standout turns in Boy A and the first of the Red Riding trilogy, underlined his potential with his understated Oscarnominated role in The Social Network, and this film will launch his career into the stratosphere. He brings heart-felt emotion to all his work, delivering a superhero depiction that many will relate to. Not sure if that would have been a good thing with Batman, but it works for Spider-Man – after all, he’s

just a geek who can produce silly string, right? Webb finds a perfect balance of action and emotion. The frenetic setpieces will please the comic book purists – the 3D element particularly enhances the effectiveness of the graphics, especially when Spider-Man is swinging through New York City – while the female audience will be moved by some surprisingly touching scenes, some of which are enough to make even the most cold-hearted person shed a tear. The only criticism would be that the end showdown is a bit disappointing. It didn’t seem right for a superhero

movie and was incredibly clichéd. Still, the final seconds did yield a tense cliffhanger, which will keep the fans looking forward to the sequel. Considering it was a remake, Webb has done a good job making it unique, without drifting away from the basic story. Did we need another SpiderMan? Perhaps not, bearing in mind it was only ten years ago that the original one was made. However, Webb has successfully refreshed the original movie, with just the right amount of action, emotion and humour to entertain the masses. Batman had better watch his back.

Take Shelter (15) Dir: Jeff Nichols; US drama, 2011, 120 mins; Michael Shannon, Jessica Chastain, Tova Stewart, Shea Whigham

Premieres July 5 Playing nationwide

HE CALM before the storm quite aptly describes the opening of this understated and intense indie offering from director Jeff Nichols. Curtis and his wife Samantha stand in the doorway of their daughter’s room watching her sleep. They muse over the fact that they’re still whispering

despite her deafness – clearly a recent reality that they have yet to come to terms with. The scenes that follow further establish this family’s typically rural, working-class Ohio existence, in which lumberjack-shirted, pickup truck-driving Curtis toils relentlessly to provide for his family, while his wife religiously scrambles eggs (and her mind) every morning, gossips with the neighbours in the afternoon, and runs a stall to earn a little extra for the family pot on weekends. Then, as the ominously rumbling heavens close in over Curtis one day, one gets a sense that a shift in this white picket fenced, apple pie back-

water template is imminent – as dark and incomprehensible as the storm clouds above and as frighteningly unsettling as the tornadoes on the horizon and the oily viscosity of the rain that falls. As the storms intensify, and it transpires that Curtis appears to be the only one that can see them, so does his sense of impending doom. Severe, sweat-soaked dreams become a nightly ritual that transgress into his waking life, and despite acknowledging to himself that he is suffering from some kind of psychological breakdown, his sense of isolation from his family and community deepens. He decides to build a storm shelter that not only satisfies his in-

stincts to protect his family, but also provides a refuge for him against an increasingly hostile and intolerant world. Take Shelter is a gem of a film that quietly and poetically explores the pitfalls of alienation and human folly, and both Shannon and Chastain (recently lauded for her role in Terrence Malick’s Tree of Life) hit their marks to perfection. Director Nichols’ second feature, which deservedly collected two prizes at Cannes, hardly puts a foot wrong in subtly and deftly unravelling the mind of his central character while engaging his audience with the maturity of a seasoned professional.

6 - 12 July 2012

New this Week Woody Allen: A Documentary Dir: Robert B Weide; US doc, 2012, 113 mins; Woody Allen, Antonio Banderas, John Cusack, Penelope Cruz, Larry David If you love Woody Allen, this is a must-see. If you don’t love Woody Allen, see it anyway. This entertaining documentary chronicles Allen’s career from writing scripts for Sid Caesar in the 1950s to creating the starstudded Oscar-winning films we see today. You can also watch an array of stars weigh in on their favourite wacky director, including Diane Keaton, Sean Penn, Scarlett Johansson, Larry David, Penelope Cruz and Josh Brolin. LL

Book Your Tickets Martha Marcy May Marlene (15) Dir: Sean Durkin ; US thriller, 2011, 112 mins; Elizabeth Olsen, Sarah Paulsen, Hugh Dancy Watch a brilliantly underplayed Olsen give her debut in this instant cult-status masterpiece directed by Sean Durkin. When Martha (Olsen) escapes from a hippie cult and finds her way back to her sister, her recovery is neither simple nor swift. It will leave you questioning the level of manipulation we all tolerate in our everyday lives. MW

21 Jump Street (11) Dir: Phil Lord & Christopher Miller; US action/comedy, 2012, 109 mins; Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum, Brie Larson, Dave Franco 21 Jump Street is instantly one of my top all-time favourite comedies (though I rank Office Space up there as well so take that as you will). There were numerous LOL moments, some great cameos and a refreshing ability to laugh at its own silliness. KE

The Avengers (11) Dir: John Whedon; US action sci-fi, 2012, 142 mins; Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston The Avengers is for Marvel what Dark Night was for DC – Whedon has scored the crowning achievement for Marvel Studio’s interconnected universe. MW

Avoid like the Plague Dark Shadows (11) Dir: Tim Burton; US horror/comedy, 2012, 113 mins; Johnny Depp, Michelle Pfeiffer, Helena Bonham Carter There is absolutely nothing dark about this film and the only thing lurking in the shadow is a huge amount of wasted potential. A man-made monster may well be a feature retained from the original series, however in this case the man is Burton and the monster is Dark Shadows. AS

Ice Age: Continental Drift 3D (7) Dir: Steve Martino; US comedy, 2012, 94 mins; Ray Ramano, John Leguizamo, Jennifer Lopez, Denis Leary, Peter Dinklage, Wanda Sykes Though the animation is impressive, both plot and script in this fourth installment of the money-making Ice Age franchise fall short. Sloth Sid reaches new heights of stupidity while Jennifer Lopez does her best as a misled feline marauder. Yet even a masterly voiced Peter Dinklage as a pirate orangutan can’t save this flick from a bad case of triteness and unremedied lack of heart.

What to Expect When You’re Expecting (11) Dir: Kirk Jones; US comedy, 2012, 105 mins; Elizabeth Banks, Cameron Diaz, Anna Kendrick Prepare to keep your expectations low for the latest Hollywood ensemble rom com, What to Expect When You’re Expecting. For a film that claims to show how unpredictable life can be, the script is horribly predictable. ED

LOL (3) Dir: Lisa Azuelos; US comedy, 2012, 97 mins; Miley Cyrus, Demi Moore, Ashley Greene, Adam Sevani If a film begins with an American teenager talking about her high school and walking out in slowmotion, arm in arm with her bffs – you can put your expectations to rest. This flick will have

nothing new to offer, whether it’s teenage broken hearts, hooking up in summer camp, a battle of the bands, school trips to Paris, parties and pot. MH

Also Playing The Hunger Games (11) Dir: Gary Ross; US sci-fi, 2012, 142 mins; Jennifer Lawrence, Liam Hemsworth, Woody Harrelson Ross has successfully dissected and expanded the book and produced something that works as a film – so long as you’re not too precious about its origins. MH

Wuthering Heights (15) Dir: Andrea Arnold; UK drama, 2011, 129 mins; Kaya Scodelario, James Howson, Oliver Milburn Based on the classic novel by Emily Brontë, this adaption of Wuthering Heights is one of the most impressive costume dramas of the year. MH

The Dictator (11) Dir: Larry Charles; US comedy, 2012, 83 mins; Sacha Baron Cohen, Anna Faris, Ben Kingsley, John C Reilly Cohen’s fans will recall the tepid disappointment of Ali G: Indahouse. The Dictator shares the fiction approach of that film and confirms the superiority of Cohen’s fiction/ documentery hybrids over these pure fictions. Genuinely funny moments are too few, and almost all of those aren’t politicised. MW

G19

Prometheus (15)

Men in Black III (11)

Dir: Ridley Scott; US sci-fi, 2012, 126 mins; Michael Fassbender, Noomi Rapace, Charlize Theron, Idres Elba, Guy Pearce There are some decent moments of horror and tension. There are also planet-sized plot holes and moments of ham-fisted stupidity. With the recent announcement that Ridley is returning to that other sci-fi masterpiece, Blade Runner, there’s a sense that in his twilight years he’s riding the coattails of his past success. MW

Dir: Barry Sonnenfeld; US action, 2012, 105 mins; Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones, Josh Brolin, Jemaine Clement It’s a light, fun sci-fiadventure, with perhaps a slightly darker overture than the previous films, MiB3 is worth seeing in a theatre – if for nothing else the roar of the Apollo rocket that rumbles your chest, and the 3D which is one of the better that I have encountered. KE

The Lucky One (11)

Dir: Adrian Grunberg; US action, 2012, 96 mins; Mel Gibson, Peter Stormare, Dean Norris Mel Gibson finds new life in a Mexican jail after getting caught with $4 million dollars of mobster money. Not an easy place for an outsider, unless it’s with the help of someone who knows the ropes – a 10-year-old kid. It’s both cheesy and striking, corny and bold, dismissible and yet strangely appealing. MH

Dir: Scott Hicks; US drama, 2012, 101 mins; Zac Efron, Taylor Schilling, Blythe Danner The Lucky One doesn’t deliver many plot twists, and if you have seen the trailer, you basically saw the whole film. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing. You know what to expect, so you can’t claim to be disappointed by it. It’s a romantic drama, so don’t expect fireworks. DC

Captive (15) Dir: Brillante Mendoza; UK/Fra/Ger/Phi drama, 2012, 120 mins; Isabelle Huppert, Mercedes Cabral, Maria Isabel Lopez The film drew a lot of fire from the press as it was rejected by both Cannes and Venice, which created a somewhat toxic whiff. After all, Cannes built Mendoza’s reputation with his win for Kinatay, so how bad could his first decently budgeted film be? Well, not half as bad as expected. MH

Get the Gringo (15)

Snow White and the Huntsman (11) Dir: Rupert Sanders; UK/ US action, 2012, 127 mins; Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron, Chris Hemsworth, Sam Claflin, Ian McShane In a twist to the fairy tale, the huntsman ordered to take Snow White into the woods to kill her winds up becoming her protector and mentor in a quest to vanquish the Evil Queen. But unfortunately, this overlong retelling of a Grimm fairy tale is short on magic. MH

PICK O THE W F EEK

Garrow’s Law BBC Entertainment, Sat 21:00

THE PREMISE of British miniseries Without You sounds intriguing, the cast (Marc Warren, Anna Friel) is likeable, and the Guardian found the first episode “gripping”, but yet it scored below 7 on IMDB, suggesting that the ending is a bit disappointing. Strong starts and weak endings are typical of British miniseries, but less likely to ruin a drama series. With 8.4 on IMDB, Garrow’s Law (BBC Ent, Sat 21:00) follows the exploits of a pioneering barrister in 18th century London, who championed the underdog and rubbed the toffs’ noses up the wrong way. Created by Tony Marchant (Holding On), it co-stars Alun Armstrong – good to see both of them back to form. Always great value (although you question whether every BBC

brainstorming session ends with someone suggesting they find out who Stephen Fry’s favourite xxx is), Wagner and Me (DRK, Sun 20:00) sees the Jewish wit come to terms with his love of the German composer’s music, and Wagner’s rampant anti-Semitism. Would Wagner have tuned in for Spielberg on Spielberg (DRK, Sat 22:55)? If he promises to explain why he kept the last five minutes of War of the Worlds, surely it’s worth a punt. Talking of the apocalypse, Up in Smoke (SV2, Sun 22:30) follows the exploits of an environmentalist, who advocates an effective alternative for slash and burn farming, from 2006 until 2009, climaxing with his appearance at Cop15. Let’s hope he doesn’t get arrested and forced to sit in the street for six hours.

Elsewhere, Da Johnny Cash ramte Søborg (DR2, Wed 20:30) features Cash speaking Danish; join Gwyneth Paltrow on a 13-episode cookery odyssey in Spain – On the Road Again (from DR2, Fri 17:55); forget Roskilde and watch this year’s Glastonbury Festival (SV1, Sat 23:50); join Adele at the Albert Hall (SV2, Sat 22:00); there’s BBC Entertainment, Sat 21:00 Garrow’s Law another chance to see Cold Feet ripoff Married single other (SV1, Fri 16:55); the first episode of What Brits Love (DR2, Wed 21:40) deals with sandwiches (hats and cars to follow); Robert Mugabe … what happened (DR2, Thu 22:50) sounds like they’re going to tell us; and then there’s Vietnam: Lost Films (DR2, Thu 20:00) – we guess they’ve found them.
