Also watch The King's choice... (2016) about the moment the Nazi's invaded Norway. Nice to see the good interaction of father and son!
My mom work for him in the early 80s, so you can say he did turn his life around. but she remember that he was really scared of loud noises, and had always had a problem with booze. but a super nice guy.
Sounds like intense ptsd. Poor guy
I love this film. Max Manus was a hero for Norway and when the film was released almost every Norwegian watched it in cinemas all over the country. The real Gunnar Sønsteby was on set and talked to the cast. He first had trouble with the German actors on set (because of the war and what the Nazis did to his friends). Tikken Manus (Max Manus' wife) was still alive when the film was shot in 2009 but I guess she wasn't on set. A few Norwegian actors portrayed Nazis as they spoke excellent German (though you can hear it a little bit that it is not their mother tongue). I think everyone did a great job. Ken Duken, who portrayed Fehmer is a brilliant German actor. You should check out more of his films.
He was really menacing. This movie was a blast!
I like it too.
You might like "The King's Choice" also set in Norway at the start of WW2. Very good movie.
I was an extra in the movie. I was one of the 400 "germans" marching down the Karl Johans Gate street. The production wanted to use the norwegian kings guard as germans marching, but the Ministry of Defence would not allow norwegian service members depicting german soldiers/wehrmacht. Instead, they sent 400 norwegian men (me included) to Huseby Military Camp where the kings guard trains, to teach us how to march.
During one of the breaks, Gunnar Sønsteby showed up. I stood there, in a Wehrmacht uniform, and another old man told me he was frightened when he saw me. There was old people crying outside of the production area. The swatstika was flying on the parliament building, just like in 1940, so it was a horrible experience for many elders.
When I grew up, I didn't look up to athletes or sports celebrities. I looked up to the norwegian resistance fighters. To @kelly.preston1986 point - when I saw Gunnar Sønsteby I immediately walked towards him to meet my all time hero. I had to move around some people in a crowded area to get there. When I arrived where he was - he was gone. Just like he disappeared from the germans during the war.
I’m Norwegian! Why am I reading the subtitles?! 😂😂
Lol were the accents authentic to you?
Jeg er tysk, lærte svensk og jeg kan også forstå norsk og dansk. Men jeg ser alltid filmer med svensk, norsk eller dansk undertekst.... mindre med engelsk undertekst.
Yes and I’m norwegian too@@myegyptiandadreacts4824
Lol. Maybe because your country's population is less than my city and OP wants to reach a wider audience 😉
Awesome movie. Fascinating stuff.
Thank you for watching this! I randomly stumbled upon this.
At the height of occupation there were more than 600 000 German troops and military personel stationed in Norway. That's 1 German military for ever 6-7 Norwegian _inhabidant_ at the time.
In the initial invasion, Norway lasted for 3 months... and the resistance fighters were at extreme risk. Hope that brings even more perspective. Most Germans were stationed at strategic places or ports, like Oslo. There were more Germans in total in Norway than the population of capital Oslo.
Norway is a monarchy, and as a side note more than 1500 years of very interesting history, there is a movie about the invasion of Norway too, focused on the effort to keep Norway's sovereignity.
It's called _"Kongens Nei"_ or _"The King's Choice"_
Love to Egypt from Norway
Dad and son :) I used to watch football matches with my dad.
Haha that's the most dad-son thing ever. It's a ton of fun though, I watch tennis with my dad, it's his favorite
A movie you should see is 'Suicide Mission', it's about the 'Shetland bus' the men who transported weapons and supplies to Norway and refugees to Shetland using small fishing boats during the winter months. Many of the surving men played themselves in the movie, so the acting isn't always the best. but you get to see Captain Larsen himself. He's one of, if not the most decorated allied sailors during WWII.
I'm so proud that Norwegian films have come to such a level that people watch them all around the world, after the movie business got heavily substituted from the state. Lots of love from Norway! 🙂
maybe its mostly due to a talented directing duo that does jobs financed from Hollywood too
I'm late to the party here. I am norwegian, and I just wanted to say that your norwegian pronounciation is spot on 😄
Lol thank you! It’s my first attempt at it 😎
This resistance fighter movie is so underrated. Great damn movie
You should watch another awesome Norwegian WW2 movie called ''The 12th Man'' about another Norwegian War Hero called Jan Baalsrud.
Tasteless remake
@@marcusjacobsen7865 Do you prefer the ''Ni Liv''? (Nine Lives)
It's the original made at the end of the 50s. It tells of the same story from the life of Jan Baalsrud, because the story is so remarkable and proves how much a human is capable of going through, and still seeing it through. Meanwhile how the people around him put themselves into great dangers to keep him safe, and were willing to risk everything to keep him hidden and alive to complete his mission. It's truly a remarkable real life World War 2 story. Jan Baalsrud is considered one of the greatest war heroes in Norwegian history from WW2. But he always said himself after the war... ''The real heroes were the civilians who risked everything to keep me safe'' from the Germans who relentlessly hunted him.
@@bobmalibaliyahmarley1551 There's also the heavy water war. miniseries. didnt wantch the original. theoriginal had most of the commandos play themselves.
@@marcusjacobsen7865 Oh yes, ''Kampen om Tungtvannet'' it's a really good miniseries. There is soon a ''Kampen om Narvik'' movie. Also... Not a war movie, but a really good Norwegian movie: ''Kon-Tiki''.
im glad you enyoed the movie. im still working on fixing the subttiles for some other norwegian movies. oddly enough to official subtitles arent that great. il reccomend them once the subttiles are completed.
Excellent reaction👍
Just stumbled upon this channel, but if you liked the actor playing Max Manus and u didn't yet see this movie, do watch The Headhunter. Its based on a Jo Nesbø book and its no way in hell u can guess the plot finale😁 Max Manus is a masterpiece tho, and as a Norwegian I cant help crying watching it. Ive heard the audiobooks where Max Manus himself reads and talks about his experiences, how it felt losing his friends, how much sheer dumb luck they had... he admits they were inexperienced idiots at first, careless and thought of it as almost a game. And the window jumping was no bravery, just pure panic he said. Its not shown in the movie but he stayed for a month in hospital before they could get him out, rest is showing re the nurse and so on.
"Flame & Citron" is another resistance ww2 great movie to watch that's very similar to Max Manus
Yup I rcommend that too plus "April 9th" a Danish movie set at the German invasion of denmark.
I can't find it anywhere :P
@StenGunMK1 Google it and see where you can stream it
I was wondering if ya'll have ever seen Glory (Denzel W, Morgan F) or US-571 (Matthew McConaughey)
Both are such great war movies ! 💚💚💚
Hey American Mum! Infact we had just watched Glory 2 days ago as it has been requested to us by a patron and it’ll be on UA-cam very soon!
@@myegyptiandadreacts4824 🤩
You seemed to like the blowing-up of Donau. Would recommend watching another Norwegian movie called "The greatest crime", where you get to see what the ship transported
you talking about "Betrayed"? with Jakob Oftebro? the brothers?
@@savagegtalks5912 Yes, that is the English title
Recommendation for your next movie reaction, the 2002 Mel Gibson war movie "We Were Soldiers" I'm sure you'll really like it.
You should watch "Under The Sand" (Danish film) and "The Silent Revolution" (German film). Both are based on true stories.
I love this movie. Can you guys please pleaseeee react to shawshank redemption? It's one of the best drama movie of all time
I agree; also Green Mile! 💚
@@AmericanMumReacts 👍
@@AmericanMumReacts have you seen Apocolypto?
Please react to Das Boot - It's the best submarine movie ever made.
It has certainly been recommended to us a lot. We'll get to it as soon as we get done with all the VIP patron commission requests lol
@@myegyptiandadreacts4824 Want another good WW2 movie Anthropoid....
@@myegyptiandadreacts4824 please dont. That movie was made in the 50s not a good look. If you want a really good submarine movie, watch U571. It's a great ww2 movie
@@chucknorris2266 Did you ever see Anthropoid ?
@@chucknorris2266 That's fine! One of my top 5 movies was made in the 50s! :) We'll react to your suggestion to if it got likes
I recommend you watch there will be blood, master and commander or interstellar. All really Great movies
oh btw would like to comment did not notice until now this movie is from 2008 not 2006
Hello again! We shall correct it
14:05 did you guys think this was a finnish movie?
Uratował honor Norwegów
his story is not entirely true. for the boats in Oslo
was blown up by the pelle group and not him
he took credit from others.
The Pelle group were the ones who blew up the boats in Oslo
they didn't get credit for it because they were communists
and he pretended to be there.
I suspect you are mixing up different operations, so this claim is incorrect.
I believe the first operation in the film is Operation Mardonius in April 1943 which resulted in the sinking of Ortelsburg and caused damage to Tugela.
The Pelle group was founded in 1944 and carried out a coordinated sabotage operation in November 1944, which I suspect is the one you have in mind. I have never heard of Max Manus or anyone in Oslogjengen or Kompani Linge claiming responsibility for this.
The final sinking in the film is that of Donau in January 1945 which was carried out by Max Manus and Roy Nielsen.
It is however true that the Norwegian authorities, both during and after the war, failed to recognize the role and actions of the Osvald and Pelle sabotage groups: largely because of their communist ties. This culminated in public complaints being made when a memorial status of Max Manus was to be located close to where the Pelle group had carried out its major operation, which resulted in it being moved and a statue in memory of the Pelle group erected. Incidentally, the activists promoting the Pelle memorial cited Gunnar Sønsteby (the young-looking lad in the film) as an ally; he had also collaborated with the Osvald group during the war.
