Editorial Review:

Description:
"American Pie," Danish-style! Aage Rais-Nordentoft's gritty and frank coming-of-age drama scores with authentic performances from its non-professional cast and insightful script that intimately captures the impulsiveness and awkwardness of adolescence. Jakob, Bo, and Mikkel are high school students whose passions are soccer, girls, and renting videos. Jakob is devastated when the girl of his dreams moves to Africa, but strikes up a tentative romance with classmate Mathilde. Mikkel has a crush on a counter girl at the local diner. Bo, whose talent attracts the attention of professional scouts, falls under the influence of a fast crowd. Through sexual fantasies, all-night parties and petty crimes, the trio's friendship is put to the supreme test.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Danish Coming of Age story
Kick n Rush, a poignant coming of age story set in a small town in Denmark, has quite a refreshing take on the subject matter. The storyline is not complex or innovative but the great acting allows for an interesting character study.

The cinematography is well done and the use of lighting provides for beautiful cinematic moments.

Life

[In Dutch]

Hij is een Deens componist en dirigent. Hij studeerde aan het Koninklijk Deens Conservatorium te Kopenhagen en kreeg orkestdirectie van Rafaël Kulibek en Sergei Celibidache. In 1970 en 1971 leidde hij het Hamburgse symfonieorkest, waarna hij in 1971 dirigent werd van het symfonieorkest van de Deense radio en van het orkest van de Koninklijke Schouwburg te Kopenhagen. Voor deze instelling schreef hij muziek van talrijke balletten, uitgevoerd door het Koninklijk Deens Ballet. Zijn interesse in de accordeonmuziek begon met zijn ontmoeting met accordeonpionier Mogens Ellegaard voor wie hij in totaal 5 accordeonwerken schreef: 3 solowerken en 2 concerto’s voor accordeon en symfonisch orkest. Zijn toccata no. 2 schreef hij in 1980 en heeft een grillig en improvisatorisch karakter, virtuoos passagespel en snelle melodische ostinato’s. Schmidts stijl sluit aan bij het tussenoorlogse neo-classicisme.
