(aka "Lust och Fägring Stor" or "Lærerinden" or "Love Lessons")
directed by Bo Widerberg
Sweden / Denmark 1995
From Bo Widerberg (Elvira Madigan) comes the Academy Award-nominated All Things Fair, a sensual and controversial coming-of-age story in which a young man, Stig (Johan Widerberg), falls madly in love with his teacher, Viola (Marika Lagercrantz). The intense relationship that develops spins rapidly out of control, setting the stage for a final confrontation between Stig and Viola in which “all is fair in love and war.”

| Comments |
Both DVD editions are cropped 7% from the OAR of 1.66:1 to 1.78:1. Home
Vision is additionally cropped 1.25% left and 1% top. The image of Nordisk Film is more correctly pale (neutral) than Home Vision, and sharper in detail. While there are extremely minor edge enhancements (see around the letters in frame #5), the image is generally flawless. The English subtitles of Nordisk Film appear to differ from Home Vision. Note the differences in grammar (Math Teacher vs. Maths Teacher). The Nordisk Film DVD has the correct running length of the film of 2:04:45 (125 minutes). The Nordisk Film DVD comes with a 10 minute review of the film including an interview with Bo Widerberg. Sadly this is not subtitled. -Henrik Sylow |
