my friend spencer pointed out that the subtitles on the US version DVD of let the right one in were kind of weird & seem oddly dumbed down when he watched it this past week - and boy is that ever true!
this article points out how the subtle nuances & dark humour of the movie are completely lost in this version of the film. i strongly suggest you do NOT buy or rent this version, it is doing a complete disservice to the brilliance of this movie (one of my faves of ‘08). ugh, i’m indignant! SO LAME!
Huh. Maybe that’s why I was so unimpressed by the movie. It still seemed like a great concept, though, so I’ll read the book anyway.
