- Thomas Vinterberg and Mads Mikkelsen in conversation with TIFF in advance of ANOTHER ROUND's premiere at the 2020 Toronto International Film Festival. Vinterberg and Mikkelsen reunite for ANOTHER ROUND, a sobering comedy about aging, alcoholism, and friendship between men.
The 45th Toronto International Film Festival runs September 10 to 19, 2020. For more, visit tiff.net.
In their first collaboration since 2012’s Oscar-nominated The Hunt, Thomas Vinterberg reunites with actor Mads Mikkelsen for ANOTHER ROUND, a film that ranks among each man’s best, most memorable work. Once the brightest teacher at his high school, Martin (Mikkelsen) has fallen into a seemingly permanent funk. He’s barely present in his classes - the students and their parents even attempt an intervention - and his marriage is slowly dissolving. At a birthday celebration, his three closest colleagues (all men), cajole teetotaller Martin into boozing along with them. They get progressively drunker and the shit-disturber of the group, Nikolaj (Magnus Millang), tells them about an obscure philosopher who argued humans aren’t born with enough alcohol in their blood. As an “experiment,” he proposes they all drink constantly throughout the day to maintain the “proper” blood-alcohol level of 0.05%.
Initially the boozing seems enormously beneficial. A reinvigorated Martin begins to engage with his students and shocks his long-suffering wife, Trine (Maria Bonnevie), with his new-found zest. But as the gang pushes their experiment further, issues that have been simmering for years come to the fore and the men are faced with a choice: reckon with their behaviour or continue on the same course.
Directed with insight and energy by Vinterberg, and driven by a great ensemble cast (Bonnevie, Millang, Lars Ranthe, and Thomas Bo Larsen) with the incomparable Mikkelsen at its centre, ANOTHER ROUND is a boisterous and sobering comedy about how men deal (and don’t deal) with aging - though underlying it all is a shared, unnerving suspicion they may never have actually grown up in the first place.

1:53 Mads sarcastic cheers to Interviewer while taking a sip got unnoticed by the Interviewer while discussing whether the theory is right or wrong
@Leon Chameleon he didn’t seem to acknowledge it
All his charisma just went away, shame..
I'm insanely obsessed with mads mikkelsen 😩
We all are , trust me 😍 he's amazing
@@sophiecooper3624 yea he's so amazing🥺
@@sanaabk27 on August 8th he's near me . I will try to go to the film Festival ( in Köln,Germany) and hope to get a picture with him . I dont care if we have to wear the mask. People who know him will recognize him instantly.
Wish me luck
@@sophiecooper3624 ohh good luck, hope u will take many pics with him 😍 am jealous!!
@@sanaabk27 thank you . I wish you a wonderful day and please stay safe
I don’t even drink alcohol but this movie made me feel things. The satisfaction, excitement and then pain, frustration and then happiness.
It’s beautifully executed and I’ve started watching other Danish movies because of Another Round.
Love from Malaysia!
Watch: Underverden
Watch: Under The Sand
Watch: The Guilty
ALL danish Masterpieces. Literally the best danish movies of all time.
The Hunt from Thomas Vinterberg and Mads Mikkelsen as well obviously
If you are not afraid of shedding tears, then Dancer in the Dark and breaking the waves are great flicks. Both by Lars von Trier.
I loved the last minutes of the movie. The song and Mads are amazing
Hell yeah
Its not that crazy of an ending but there is something about it that makes it maybe my favorite ending of all time! I need to know if that was Mads doing all the dancing!!!
@@allie7917 it was. He went to dancing school back then. Just like the charackter. There is a Video here where you can see him practicing
@@olafs85 thank you I've got to check that out!
i cried so hard but it wasn't even sad
I've got so much love and respect for those two men. So intelligent, well spoken, talented, nice and handsome as hell! Wow! What a package those two make....

Such a great movie. Vinterberg is such a talented filmmaker, and Mads gives a moving performance once again in this.

Since 2006, Mads Mikkelsen has always been Le Chiffre to me. This is the first film I've seen him as the main actor and he knocked it out of the park! An incredible performance.
Try to watch “Jagten” 🙏🏼
Hannibal wants to know your location
Vinterberg is so right about this film being best viewed at the end of a pandemic. I saw it days after receiving my vaccine. I am so grateful, so fortunate. The world lost so much in the last year. But this movie, especially the ending, gave me hope for the future and reminded me how important it is to live life fully. The pandemic had the same effect.
Congratulations to Thomas Vinterberg and Mads Mikkelsen for receiving today's OSCAR NOMINATION FOR both Best Director and Best International Film (Denmark) for Another Round, announced a few minutes ago Live. 15 March 2021. Good luck & may you win both!!
They won!
@@sandeepsivakumar7939 Indeed they did!!

where does Mads get these beautiful shirts
Hes worn it all year 🤣love it...
At a kiosk in Denmark
From the shirt place. Where do you get yours?
@@999titu the way i could believe this
It could be a Sand Copenhagen shirt. They do a lot of beautiful and interesting prints
I’m so sad that they couldn’t premier this film at Cannes what a loss😩😩😩
My favorite way to describe Danish drinking culture is to tell how graduating our version of high school is celebrated. You see, what we do is load up the graduating class in the back of old military trucks along with several cases of beer and then drive them around for the day while the kids drink as much as they can to reach certain milestones or achievements which if they reach they get to cut different shapes into their graduating caps.
This is depicted in the film. And it is awesome.
Me: 😞
Mads Mikkelsen: *exists*
Me: 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Same
So you're older than him
You should go look up pictures of him from the early 2000s. Damn he was hot. Now he´s just a very good actor, who looks very old
@@LouiseAndersen1991 he's still hot

I love Vinterberg! he’s so cute and his voice is amazing😅😅
Easily the best film at TIFF and the best new release of the year. This movie was truly phenomenal.
Can't wait to watch the movie . I loved the trailer and of course i love Mads .
He's my favorite actor
Thomas Vinterberg’s a great director. Very handsome.
Okay I've been in love with Mads for awhile but this director whoa baby ,when's the next flight to Denmark??????
couldn't pay proper attention to the interview.
Mads. Call me please.
My name is mads too, he is 55 he can't get it up
@@999titu jesus christ lol
@@999titu bro down bad
lol
vikas malik Mads is most likely incredibly active sexually and in every other way
As a child of a Swede, I can say that Scandinavian people drinking is a sight to behold. It is pervasive and they indulge in copious amounts that borders on frightening.
As a child of a Swedish mother too, you really made me laugh. I can only agree.
I am humbled by your public appreciation for my work. Kindly message me now on Hangout: madsmikkelsen.connect@gmail.com
My dad's father was half Dane and half Norwegian, my mom's dad was full Dane, and now I know where I get my tolerance for drinking.😄
While I mostly agree with what you said, the Danes relationship to alcohol is different from the rest of Scandinavia, we're are more akin to that of the Germans and the British in that regard than to Norway or Sweden. But I totally got your point :)
Any moment now, I was thinking, he will ask Mads "what are you drinking"... :-)
On the other hand, I understand that this might hit some cultures, but I hate that the focus of the interview was only on drinking, where actually the movie is all on opening up and be your self, live your life.
I'm so in love with Mad, what a man!
This film is a masterpiece.
does anyone else think that they're wonderful together because they both have amazing hair ?!
Yes, I was thinking the same 🙂
Didn’t know mads had a lisp, don’t know how I missed that after all these years
Yeah but he only has it a little bit when speaking English, when he speaks danish you can't hear it at all surprisingly
When you speak several languages, your accent changes depending who you’re around with
I only have a speed impediment of pronouncing the letter R, it used to be hectic. But overtime I learnt that pronouncing the words in certain ways, can actually hide it quite well.
I don't who decided to name the inability to pronounce R as Rhotacism, but heck them.
I myself drink only once a week and iv done many things when drunk I would never do otherwise and some I've really regretted.
This movie was amazing. Near masterpiece.
people, please tell me...why Mads Mikkelsen was not nominated for an Oscar for this movie? like..Why????
Mads and flower shirt :)
I hope you all win at the Oscars.. this film was so reaL ..brilliant
I love all Vintergs 🎥 The Hunt and The Commune
Oh I love this interviewer
Very respectful and he asked good interesting questions!
Kudos👏👏
it is a marvelous film! Denmark is a great country, awesome people!
Congrats for your Golden Globe nomination. I hope you win, and I can't wait to watch this movie.
Going through an awards/festival season during covid sucks so bad. Working hard on a movie and not being able to properly share it with the world is a shame. Love Mads tho, so I'll watch this one as soon as I can.
Fortunately it had a good run in theatres in Denmark, before the 2. wave closed everything down. 100.000 tickets in the opening weekend (Sep 24..28, 2020) and more in the 2. weekend. Weirdly, IMDB lists a December premiere with details behind a paywall.
I love that mural of the woman in the back. Beautiful art ♥
I highly agree with Vinterberg that this film is best showed at the end of pandemic.
i feel bad bout that youtube doeasn't allow donates from my country. actually love them thomas and mads both have such adorable personalities! thomas is really smart and mads is super handsome and talented
I am humbled by your public appreciation for my work. Kindly message me now on Hangout: madsmikkelsen.connect@gmail.com
YES!!! Just live....I never met a movia that balances this
Maria Bonnevie is a completely underrated actress, she is great!
Very good movie! Interesting to watch as a Swedish person since we differ from danes when it comes to alcohol.
Best movie I've seen this year!
I saw Mads mikelsen and say wow l love l find series Another roud l look it ♥️♥️♥️♥️😁😁😁👍👍👍👍👍👍
One question from me: how does it feel to have made such an amazing film?
VIGGO VIGGO
he looks like viggo mortensen. BOTH OF THEM ARE STUNNING
Really interesting interview, Cameron is a great interviewer too
this is one of the class quality interview
I don't know when I woke up, and that makes me really sad. I don't like my life but i don't know how to change it. Finally going only sad and going :(
Ain’t no shame in talking to people. It took me till I was rock bottom and all I can wish is that I did it sooner. I still drink, but no longer to self medicate
It's a shame these too aren't stretched more on the questions. I guess it's a short interview for charity and largely light hearted. But I think there's much more depth to the film.
Well done, both!👍
... and regarding of that.. 1:55 😂😂😂
10:45 I love Mads!
Thomas Vinterberg looks like Modern Tom Cruise at this angle lol
Lottery love ❤ for these two ✌
The best film of this awards season.
Just saw this brilliant movie
Perfect Videography,I have to admit,interview pun intended
Great questions, great interview
Good interview. Just saw the film and liked it. But, I wonder if the message that Mr. Vinterberg wanted to convey was obstructed a bit by the troubles that the characters found themselves in. They pulled back from total excess sure, except Tommy.... but then at the end I was doubting it was going to stick. I don't personally have a problem with drinking from time to time, but I can't handle very much. For Mads Mikkelsen's character, I would have loved to see him learning to be free and fully himself without so much alcohol - I know it's possible! It seemed at the end of the film that he was going for it again and it didn't feel like a celebration to me, and it wasn't clear that he was happy about the texts from his wife either.... maybe that was intentional, not sure. Makes for an interesting conversation. Much love from 🇨🇦.
Seems the Danish drinking culkture is very similar to that of the Czech Republic
Incredible movie!
Thomas vinterberg has an amazing set of hair
Lol at Mads at 1:57
Hilarious :DD
Vinterberg: This would play best at the end of a pandemic
Me watching this vaccinated: This is the word of God.
Hello Mads 😍😍😍
Perfect Videography,😀
First Mads theatre viewing 28/2!

Crazy Diskussion Smile
Did not get the celebration of life part when watching the movie, felt like an actual alcohol trip from the relaxed and happy early stage to being full on drunk to the aftermath.
What is the name of the interviewer? ❤️
Watching videos with Mads is so unhealthy for me, I don't know why I still do it nonetheless :(
WHERE CAN I WATCH THIS MOVIE. Help me please

Lol does the lake run still exist 😅🤢🇩🇰
Didn't the idea come from Trailer Park Boys?! :D
Actually, it was inspired by the stories of the director's daughter who told her father about stories of the drinking culture she saw within the Danish Youth. When they were making the film, the daughter died in a car accident and the film is dedicated to her.
@@rickardkaufman3988 Are you talking about this director Thomas Vinterburg? His daughter died while they were making this movie?
@@raindrops5432 Yes. I'm talking about the great Thomas Vinterburg, the auteur behind such Mikkelson joints like A Royal Affair and The Hunt.
@@rickardkaufman3988 Oh..I'm sorry.
That's so sad.I admire him for getting over the tragedy and moving forward.
@@raindrops5432 Well, all creative talents tend to use tragedies for healing. It's the Grotowski way. Using trauma not only for creativity but for healing as well. Many artists have used their personal to guide in their creativity.
Thats bollox! He did not name this so called philosopher. How can you be re-awakened when your pissed?
In the film, the philosopher is named as Finn Skårderud
its not about being pissed. Its about maintaining a slight buzz. Like the you feel after havin a beer or two.
@@livnelson9709 but you can't be re-awakened if you drink alcohol, i.e. develop yourself, you just regress if you drink alcohol. So the philosopher got it wrong and so did all the film makers involved, what a waste of time! LOL!!
@@jamesshielssoberlife.3701 i believe the idea is that a slightly higher blood alcohol level (0.05 is not pissed, it’s a small amount. You’re allowed to drive at .05 in a lot of places) reduces anxiety, complacency, depression, fear etc just enough to make you a little more enthusiastic, social, crearive etc. And its true. But its a slippery slope because it’s easy to drink too much and get to a silly point
@@jamesshielssoberlife.3701 it could be argued that there are certain aspects of the personality that need to be regressed for a person to thrive and develop yourself. My creativity is deveoped by a small amount of alcohol because it regresses my self-critical voice, my fear and self involvement.
