Oskar’s America : Red, White & Blue as Idyllic Image: Film review byJOHN SMISTAD

When I was a kid my best friend and I constructed a cardboard craft that we intended to launch into orbit. We lived within shouting distance of the Manned Spacecraft Center in suburban Houston and each of our dads, including my Norwegian-born pappa, Ole, were NASA engineers. We, like all of our friends and schoolmates, revered the U.S. space program. For propulsion, my buddy’s old man suggested that we partially fill clear plastic gallon jugs with water and seal them so as to generate pressure within. Then we would install these “boosters” onto the back of our rudimentary rocket, twist off the caps, and blast off to the stars. Even though I was away on a family vacation for launch day, upon return my chum regrettably reported that the operation was not a success.

We were genuinely crushed. Because we genuinely believed.

Enter the Norwegian fantasy drama Oskar’s America. The titular character is a ten-year-old boy (Odin Eikre in a charmingly endearing performance), the son of Isabel (Marie Blokhus), a young single mother mired in substance abuse, grandson of grizzled grandpa, Helmer (Bjørn Sundquist) and enamored with the mystique of what he has come to believe America to be. That is a land in which everybody is a cowboy, gloriously riding horses upon the vast, open prairie. Not unlike the naivete inherent in my Quixotic “co-astronaut’s” and my vision of conquering the vast expanse of the heavens in our homemade composition board contraption.
Oskar is left to live with his grumpy gramps, an anti-social loner who is working on a mysterious project in the basement, whilst Isabel is away in America on a job for a couple of weeks.

Or so she tells him.

在这段时间里,年轻人遇到了一个叫李维(Levi)的男孩(已故的乔尔根·兰格尔(JørgenLanghelle)的感动者),他与他唯一的一生中居住,这是他为他命名,natch,'horsie'的唯一伴侣。当奥斯卡得知他的母亲对她的下落撒谎时,他的世界被打破了。他和李维(Levi)现在比以往任何时候都更加重新开始,他和李维(Levi)制定了一项计划,正如列维(Levi)几十年前所做的那样。当伊莎贝尔(Isabel)得知奥斯卡(Oskar)从父亲的家中失踪时,她开始疯狂地寻找儿子。奥斯卡(Oskar)和列维(Oskar)和李维(Levi)成功逃避了当地的敌对朋克和执法部门后,伊莎贝尔(Isabel)在海滩上驶向他们时即将启航。

Odin Eikre, Jørgen Langhelle & “Horsie”

Three lost souls have found each other.

What lies ahead for the trio is not at all certain.

Except this…

Wherever, and whatever, the journey, it is destined to be traveled forever as one.
