Tossup

A frequent shot in this film, often representing the perspective of a smoking janitor, is a high angle of a hotel hallway with wooden walls and a red and green carpet. In this film, heavy house music kicks in as one character and his friend are approached by a woman who tells them that her friend thinks he is the best looking man present, only for her to come back and clarify that she meant someone else. This film uses Vivaldi’s “Summer” over a scene of the male lead participating in a (*) rave with a group of (10[1])younger men, as well as a later shot of him emerging from a blizzard carrying his wife. At the end of this film, Mats helps guide (10[1])passengers off a bus after Ebba decides the driver is incompetent. This (10[1])film’s plot is set in motion when Tomas abandons his family during a controlled avalanche at a resort in the (10[1])French (10[1])Alps. For 10 points, name this 2014 black comedy by Ruben Östlund. ■END■
