Is it for you?

Who'll love it
If you count yourself among anyone who likes to solve it before the characters do and anyone who likes a story with a soundtrack worth keeping, this one's for you. It plays fair with the clues, so you can play along. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top.
The mood
Light and funny.
The pace
Quick and easy-going, at 1 hr 53 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in Swedish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1939: an older pace and style.
  • Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.

Choreographer is found murdered and the police investigate. There are several suspects among his lovers, dancers and family members.
