Disappointing Pimpernel

Harald Edelstam was ambassador of Sweden in Chile during the Pinochet rebellion. He saved many people from the junta and also took considerable personal risks. He's worth a movie.But a better one than this. First, it's always ridiculous hearing Swedes talking English to each other. That makes the picture less trustworthy from the beginning. Second, it's not very well acted and the characters are very square. This is more of a drama for TV than for a big screen.It's a pity, because this is an important subject about morality and personal responsibility. But you don't get interested.

Fantastic Movie! Absolutely Great!

This movie is really good and I strongly recommend it! It has a realistic feel over it(I know, The Sweds speak English to each otherbut frankly I don't care, and Im Swedish)!Harald Edelstam was a true hero and its all very clear in this film.Sometimes it could be difficult to understand but it not that often.So if you feel like seeing a really good movie, go see this one! Its anImportant movie who shows the heroic deeds of a true hero.Its actually one of the best Swedish films i've ever seen! Finally the Swed's know how to make a big screen movie!Its worth the money.
