Når engle elsker

About This Movie

Når engle elsker is this quirky little gem from 1985 that blends metaphysical comedy with a dash of romance. The premise is kind of wild—two young angels are sent on a peculiar mission by Gabriel himself to transform a rather dim-witted pig into a decent creature. The pacing is a bit off-kilter, but it somehow works, creating a whimsical atmosphere throughout. The performances manage to capture that sense of innocence and charm, while the practical effects used for the angelic transformations add a certain rawness that feels refreshing. It's definitely not your run-of-the-mill comedy, and the themes of redemption and love are wrapped in a lighthearted, almost dreamlike quality that stays with you.
