Ha! so there is more than one version...
Pusher II - Danish dogma-style by Nicholas Winding Refn.
Not a dogma-movie, but featuring a similar style. The movie is about the pathetic small time criminal Tonny, who just got out from jail and regroup with his old mates in a world full of miserable loosers. No special effects, no "coolness factor" in violence, no glamour, no heroes, no romantisism. Just a heap of small time gangsters in Copenhagen, having a generally miserable time. The story is driven forward by character development. Mads Mikkelsen plays Tonny, excellent as always.
Even though this is not an especially good film it still has everything I like about Danish film and lacks everything I dislike with Hollywood productions.
6/10
